Eleanor,
As with most things in life, the product was designed by the sighted for the
sighted, I agree that this is no reason for poor buildmanship, but does
explain why the phone is useless in terms of tactile feed back for us.
Annoying, like steve states a good phone in terms of specification.

Pity that, could pressure groups for people with special needs not approach
Nokia and tell them that the design of N95 was/is excellent and ask why they
have reverted in time!
