There is still the built in GPS and 5Megapixal camera to contend with on the N95 as opposed to Google map and 2M camera on the iphone WIFI restricts your to areas with hotspots with 3G and wifi together u are in a much better situation as u can use wifi where there is a hot spot and 3G when you are out and about.

Disagree, as a user of a Nokia E60, which I could have sworn by until last night. (E- and N-series Nokia share the same OS version, broad feature set.) Sure 3G is great, but having WiFi (as E-series does) more than makes up for lack of 3G (particularly once you have EDGE). (When you've made that first VoIP call via WiFi, on a cellphone, you're converted.) Apart from all the 'cool' stuff with the iPhone (ex: why didn't anyone else think of the accelerometer thingie? Or dumping the stylus?) the real strength is going to be that he has Unix/OSX under the hood, and a platform that allows him to do desktop-quality applications on a cellphone-sized device. The opportunities are immense. Symbian/Nokia is quite nice, Linux cellphone is too, but it looks like an eclipse is imminent...
