N85 unboxing!!!

For us waiting for the NAM edition for warranty and 850 3G the phone is kind of a big deal . So smart a#s comment aside... How do you like the phone? Does it look even better in person ?
 
To Nokia: Don't shoot your marketing videos in NYC if you can't bring out the NAM model simultaneously with your other versions. Get out of NYC until and unless you can release product over here. Go shoot your video somewhere else.
 
True but unless its the NAM version and lets say the earpiece goes out or some other type of malfunction, it'll be pretty much impossible to get it repaired/replaced by nokia.
 
On the flip side, it will get firmware updates. I don't know I guess the choice is risking non-functional hardware (and don't say it doesn't happen - my N78 right speaker doesn't work, and my N95-1 needed an LCD cable repair) or risk having messed up software that will not be updated on time and even when the update comes it will likely be incomplete. Seriously they have a lot of gall filming around here while offering us a choice between a turd sandwich and a piss shake.
 
And I was thinking the same thing!

The next huge flagship phone from nokia should have no less than a 600Mhz cpu! I want transitions, application launch times, auto-screen rotations, and the ability to run a phone call, browser & apn data connection with GPS running SMOOOOOTHLY!
 
Seeing as they were the first to use the OMAP 2420 they should be the first to use the OMAP 3430 with processors running in lower 1GHz range. They haven't announced a phone with it, the next N-series internet tablet is supposed to have it.

But these days you can never tell since they've fallen so behind and their major efforts are with reducing the cost of producing the N95 in various flavors such as the N82, N85 and the N96 ). I like the N85, but it is an N95 in a new case with major reductions in the bill of materials. This thing cannot possibly cost them a penny over $200 to make and that's a high estimate.
 
I agree that while most of us don't need the warranty its still good to know its there, especially if its a phone that you plan to keep for at least a year. Me personally am done with spending hundreds of dollars on a 'gray' market phone only to hope that nothing goes wrong with it, and have to fix it myself.

As for the firmware updates, yeah they still screw us in the states but who knows maybe they will start getting better about hooking us up too... yeah i know i crack myself up to .
