First impressions of the Nokia N85 North American version First impressions of the Nokia N85 North American version
Posted by: palmsolo

Video duration: 485 seconds

The Nokia Nseries devices are high end mobile phones that pack in some major functionality and features. I just bought a new Nokia N85 (with support for AT&T's 3G network) and think it is one of the best Nseries devices ever made. The OLED screen is fantastic, the build quality is solid and it is a great performer. Check out some initial thoughts in this video walk around.

HP used to be the premier Pocket PC maker, but has struggled a bit the last few years. The HP iPAQ 910 Business Messenger may help get HP back on track, even with the delay of about 8 months getting the device out the door.

The Nokia N95-3 and Nokia N800 Internet Tablet make a killer combo and as you can see in this video you can pair them via a wireless Bluetooth connection for a couple of reasons. The N95-3 can serve as a wireless data modem and as a GPS receiver, at the same time. With this combo you don't really need a Nokia N810 and can save yourself a few bucks.
