I am looking to buy a cell fone with GPS, wireless internet and a decent camera (dunt really care abt mp3 playback, wat are ipod for?).

In my opinion n95 is a really good option. Where can I get it from and for how much? Is ebay a good place to buy fones?

Suggest any other fone u guys think is better or has these things i need.

I have n73 that i m looking to sell to buy this new fone

Suggestions are welcome and thanks in advance for any help.

To answer one of your questions the GPS in the N95 should work with either Windows Live Search or Google Maps (both of which are free). I hope this helps.

First of all, what cell carrier are you going to go with? You need to look at which carrier will provide the best coverage when and where you will need it, where you live, work, play, travel, etc. Talk to people, don't trust the coverage maps.

Once you decide that, then we can give a recommendation. It would be dumb to recommend a Verizon or Sprint device if you are going GSM (ATT or T-Mo).

I m going to use Fido service (it is the same as rogers) in canada. Does it mean that u need GPRS or WLAN to use the GPS function? What is the bluetooth module? If internet connection of some kind is required for GPS to work then it is kinda expensive to use it as GPRS on fido is a rip-off.

You might try a little patience and respect.....

This is a volunteer forum, and help will come if you are patient and courteous.

So far the demanding approach I see here is possibly putting people off, therefore you may not get an answer.

This is a great forum if you give it a chance.

both the programs I recommended above are in fact data intense, I wouldn't dare use them on a Canadian provider (since their rates are much higher then in the states)

Have you looked into HTC Kaiser?
The lock times are faster then N95/E90 and the chip is much more sensitive so it's more accurate in terms of GPS.



Posted by: umermajeed

Isnt it kinda expensive....around 1000 bucks...and it doesnt have a 5mp camera....do u need an internet connection (GPRS,WAP or WLAN) every time u need to use the GPS?

So, N95 is the best thing available rite now?



Posted by: jontymisra

Nope. Kaiser doesnt need data connection. Like I said, it's chip is 10x more sensitive then N95, but N95 is more multimedia aimed, while Kaiser is more professional and has a full keyboard.
