Features vs Size

That is the question. I carry my phone in pocket so size matters. I currently like the SE W810i size and would want something with the same feel. Of course, I like the features of the N95, but I am concerned the size might be a factor. I can't imagine a phone being compact and feature loaded like the N95. Can someone with hands on experience comment between the N75 and N95. I have pre-ordered an N75 and can switch to the N95. Both SHOULD be released in the US on April 6th.
 
Don't know if this will help, but size, and particularly weight, are a big concern for me because I carry my phone in my shirt pocket. The N80, at 134 g. is heavy enough to cause my shirt to sag noticeably. Your SE is a featherweight in comparison. But the N95, at 120 g, would be acceptable to me.
 
This is a rough one for me.
I currently use an N80 primarily (looking towards maybe an unbranded e62 for a while, I don't know) and size/weight isn't too much of an issue.

What IS an issue is the lack of 3g on the N95, and the lack of WiFi on the N75...
I even think I'd take 3g over WiFi, which means N95 over N75, but the sliders have a noticeable problem, atleast for me - I often slide them open accidently while trying to take them out of my pockets / put them in my pockets.
 
Decision easy again. I guess CTI has no clue. They will have a ton of returns if they are telling people it will have US 3G.
 
If size is your biggest concern, perhaps an N76 would be worth looking into...? Then again, it would probably be best just to get an N75 for the 3G.

I have an N80 now, and well, after using it for a while, I enjoy bar phones that much more...sliders do tend to open when you reach in your pocket and can get lose over time. Since the N95 has a two way slider, I would imagine the slide getting quite worn after about 6 months.
 
So the Nokia n75 does work with US 3g correct? Kinda sucks paying all that money for the N95 and be crippled when it comes to wireless data even if it does have Wifi wifi is not everywhere
 
EDGE vs UTMS

N75 is UTMS and N95 coming out are EDGE in the US. Would it still be worth it to get a N95 if you can only use EDGE? Eventually, there should be a US 3G version.
 
3G in a Nokia device is a whole other ball game. Imagine being able to do pretty much whatever you can do with Wi-Fi but anywhere you want?
 
I'm sorry, but what's the difference with 3G in the US and, say, 3G in the Philippines? My N80 is quadband, and I use the 3G here in Manila pretty frequently. If I went back to the States, does that mean I wouldn't be able to use my N80 to go online via 3G? (I didn't even know you all HAD 3G over there - when I was in California the Cingular sales rep didn't even know what GPRS was.)
