Now I'm confused: Does it work on the N95 or not?
Cheers

Just a couple of things to pick up from where Jackie leaves off.
At the moment KNFB reader software will only work properly on the Nokia
N82 and 6220 classic at present. There are some technical reasons for
that although obviously everyone who involved is looking at options for
the future but this is the position at the moment.
Additionally one reason why you cannot demo the software on any phone is
that the software requires polarizing filters for the lens for in order
for the software to work in any meaningful way. Also KNFB Reader is not
exactly your run of the mill Symbian application (I've brought plenty of
those
myself) KNFB Reader software is closer to the bleeding edge of what
technology and engineering effort can achieve at the moment at anything
like economic costs. Though still expensive its introduction has at
least halved the cost of the orgiinal KNFB reader classic.
There are opportunities at many of the shows around the country to see
it in action where sales staff are able to demonstrate its
functionality.
