With the latest S60 “3rd Edition” phones (such as the N95, N81 etc), Nokia in their infinite wisdom, has decided for us that we users don’t want to install “freeware” apps any more. These phones now require all apps to be “signed” – they don’t give the option to the user to install an...
As many reading here know, I’ve been using an N95 for some time now. After one day with the iPhone, here are some first impressions.

In my earlier review of the N70 I said: “Until a practical wi-fi SIP dual-mode phone comes along, the N70 will continue to serve my needs.” On paper, one would have thought the N80i (or N80 Interner Edition) was the answer. Unfortunately, after the using the N80i for some time now, I have to...
