Was there anything you liked about it?

Some reviews I've read suggest the N95 is rather expensive, slow and has poor battery life. Have you found that to be the case?

Personally, having used an N70 I think Series 60 is an invention of Satan, though it's less horrible on the N95 (I played with a friend's for a few minutes and it's definitely better than it was) and some of that had to do with the crap Orange overlaid on it. But having to keep the store of called and dialed numbers to less than 10 or it failed to pickup really put me off smart phones and I now use an SE k800i.
