Walter, I'd only add a couple of other points to what Steve has already said. I have the N85 also and totally love it. It is much smaller than the N95 8GB which I also own. I find the responsiveness with talks very good also and it also has some very nice little add ons like the audio themes. You can assign sounds to the slide open and close etc. It doesn't have any high capacity internal memory like the N95 8 GB though in reality, it has good onb board phone memory. You can however get up to a 16 GB Micro SD card for it.
N85 is very much the way to go. Smiles. Steve----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve Spamer" <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Walter, I have the N85 and previously the N96. I agree with Steve Nut in regards the N96 is too problematic and that's why I had to change to the N85...and since I did, I've been highly pleased with it. It only has the 8gig memory, but how much stuff can you listen to at once! I'ts a stirdy, neat slider phone with exellent audio qualities. The daisy player works beautifully with audio books and it has an added extra over the N96, which is the FM transmitter. You can play a file and tune a regular FM radio into the frequency of your choice. So, you can easily go about your business around the house whilst listening to whatever it is you're listening to over the radio! (at higher volume). It also can be used with a good selection of audio themes, which add a little individuality to your phone...I don't think you'd be disappointed with it. HTH, cheers Steve. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Walter Ramage" <wpr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <talks-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, July 05, 2009 7:52 AM Subject: [talks-uk] Re: N95 versus N96 versus N85Hi Amro. A good player with lots of storage space is what I'm looking forand I was given the option of an E model but when I discovered that it isbusiness orientated and the music player is basically an add on I decided to stick to the N series. I would just like to know that if I went for the N85 I wouldn't be swapping like for like with my N95 as on the face of it, theredoesn't seem to be much difference apart from the model name.

Ipersonally prefer the E models, I find them more elegant and certainly smaller than the N models. The E phones are the Nokia business series.

I was speaking to Voedafone today regarding my upgrade. As Steve mentioned last night I asked them about the N85 and the N86. They don't do the 86 but do the 85. What would you say about these handsets; which of them is the better option. Of course we are talking about talks here so even though a handset might be superior, in the balance when Talks is addedinto the equation, the most technically superior machine might not be the"best." The N96 is not very ergonomicallygood as a result of it's keypad being so flush. So the N95 and N85 would,or could be considered superior. If I discounted the N96 and opted to either keep my N95 or go for the N85 would I merely be swapping like forlike? Is there any real difference between the N85 and the N95 apart fromthe N85 being a newer model? All of you who have an opinion and especially if you have had experience with any of these handsets your contribution would be welcomed.
