The Nokia N95, part of Nokia’s Nseries, is the company’s way to say that the future is clearly in mobility. This little quad-band device has everything and it’s neither at cell phone quality or smartphone quality, but it’s at computer quality. It features everything: music player, video player, camera for photos (5 megapixels) and videos (VGA 640×480 at 30 fps) with a Carl Zeiss lens, editing for photos and videos, GPS, FM Radio, expandable memory, stereo speakers, bluetooth, wifi and infrared connectivity, and possibility to add third-party softwares. Everything in bold is what wouldn’t be typically found on any other phone or smartphones.

The volume of the phone is incredible. I was at the Under Pressure event not so long ago and I was about 10 meters away from the big loud speakers when somebody called me. While talking and listening, it occurred to me that the sound was crystal clear even with the loud noise around me.

Have you ever wondered where a person was and wished you could locate them with their phone number? Neither have I, but I found this tool which takes the area code and the following three digits to locate a cell phone.
