yay! another great phone we WON'T get here in the U.S.. If cell companies could get their act together and stop trying to sell us cheap iphone knockoffs, they might actually stop hemorhagging customers to AT&T.

I'd drop my iphone in a heartbeat if I thought I could get a cell phone that could actually replace my camera too. The convenience factor would be through the roof.

I'm not sure what you mean by cell companies "hemorhagging" customers to AT&T. NOT including the Alltel merger, Verizon Wireless added 200,000 more customers this quarter than at&t. Check your facts before you post.

I have been getting free phones and no digital camera for the past 5 years waiting for a phone exactly like this. It finally came...but its only in Europe. I hate the way cell phone carriers are in America.

I'm still waiting for the phone that replaces my kitchen sink, but I'm sure it'll be released in Japan next year and here in 10 years.

Seriously, though, what gives? Why is it that the best phones here that are carried are 3.2mp's, when Orange has carried the N95 in the UK for over a year? I'm talking with subsidizing and everything.

Can someone give me an idea whether or not I should go for a smart phone or just use a more stylish phone and wait for some better technology? I am on the Sprint network, and was referred to http://www.sanyowireless.com , but I'm not seeing any options that look like smart phones. I don't need an MP3 player or a camera, I'd rather have a phone that is lighter and easier to carry. Any recommendations would be welcome.
