Yes I do work for them.

Yes, you can get the phone free even on pro call 600, but you pay an extra R100p/m for the phone itself. A pro call 120 is only R285+CLI+itemised billing, so they charge extra for the phone there.

Isnt it kinda stupid that you sign a procall 1000 contract and you still have to pay in. You sign a contract to pay at least 38000 (1600 * 24) rand in the next 24 months and then they're still trying to get every possible cent from you.

Slightly bigger screen, black, much better battery life.

I think thats about it.

But no card slot, but luckily plain old USB connection to PC.

Yeah the black finish is lovely, hopefully the phone will age well, my wife's black N80 started looking very jaded after only a couple of months...

Suppose with 8GB on board memory no need for additional sd slot but then I could buy a 8GB sd card for me N95 and we almost on a par... mmmmm...

Well I managed to get a Original Housing for the normal N95 in black, but Nokia only retails the front and bottom, not the sides or the inside.

iam seriously pissed off with the shop and mtn that i phoned they said that they had the phone in stock and that they had 50 of them even gave me the price of the contract and all and when i went there all of a sudden they dont have the phone and only getting it in january soooo what happened to those 50 or didnt they even have them in the first place and whats even more annoying is that i phoned them 3 times to verify and when i get there they dont have it and never had it :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Dunno about Durbs, but I can help you if you need through my mate's MTN store. He has about 14 stores around Gauteng, I'm sure he can courier the phone to you...

Writing this post on my new N95-8Gb (ok almost, this is still on my 6680 - N95-8Gb still on 14h charge)...

Got it today from Autopage, R999 (upgrade) @ R300p/m (Talk 120). :)

Think stock will be an issue for sometime...

Why me thinks is better? 8Gb (yeah, I know not removable, but micro SD fragile) & 2 year free voice guidance with 8Gb version ($200 value) & Spiderman 3 & its black & 2.8" screen & will turn it on at 6am!

You don't need to charge the new batteries for 16h anymore (for about 6 years already - since li-ion batteries).

on a vodafone branded N95 8Gb ... :

1. Do i have the full working navigation still? like an unbraded N95 8Gb?
2. If i unbrand the phone by flashing it do i loose the full working navigation?
3. Is it branded physically on the casing with vodafone logos etc?
