I really like my N96, so I'm gonna stick up for one of them!! I've not tried the N85, but it does sound like a nice phone. I've not had a problem with the 2 things people usually moan about, battery life and buggy firmware. The Battery lasts a couple of days between charges when the I was lucky to get 24 hours out of a
N95-2,using it in exactly the same way. The lagging in the phone is no worse than pre-v20 on my old
n95-1 and I would expect Nokia to iron out the few remaining bugs with the v12 update we N96 users are expecting soon.
TV's a waste of time though and I'd have quite liked the FM tuner the N85 has!!
