iv been keeping an i on all n95 stuff for bout 3 weeks now myself. even getting google updates sent daily to my gmail. but you have shown me more info tonight! not surewhat im gonna do now. still not sure its worth the 700 euro if no one puts it out on contract here in ireland so can get it 4 less. plus why should i wait. could be months till then!

[gadgetman]

Maybe the folks on 3G Phones, 3G Mobiles, News, 3G Reviews, Forum, 3G Store, Games, 3G Newsletter and more. could give you a clue?

Plenty of Irish users there - and Three users (how I got the info on N95 not working on 3)

I've never had any problems with gps since the first week, when like a lot of people, I wouldn't wait long enough for it to get the first fix :). It works in the car, while walking, while biking, while climbing mountains. It's awesome...

My advice is never to buy a phone on contract. It's just another way to get scr*wed... Ever since Sprint told me I couldn't get out of my 1 year contract after 16 months... because I'd made some minor change 11 months into the plan so it started my contract all over again... so I forked over $200 for the privelege of never speaking to the *******s again...

Coated and/or heated screens affect many GPS devices. The N95 has a slightly weaker GPS receiver, so I'd expect it to really struggle or not work at all in cars with these - especially when a signal is lost, and trying to relock (ie entering and exiting a tunnel)

Got the phone in vodafone store. The phone doesnt come up with the vodafone live or anything in that. Its absolutely SIM free... I am using the phone on O2 network. Still need to explore a lot of features of the phone...

Good Luck !

Well just a coincidence i joined this forum today. i bought N95 from Vodafone Ireland and it was unlocked?? ??
yea there was a surprise for me as well. Rite now i am using it on my 3 network sim.
Sure u can use any unlocked 3G capable phone on 3 Ireland network, and to get the mms, wap, etc setting you can go to Nokia Ireland - Home and get the settings from them.
From my personal experience with 3 Ireland i know its better to try nokia website than asking 3 to send you the configuration settings.
