I have a new toy.
The mega-est of mega phones.
The omniscient Nokia n95!

The marketing blurb:

• 3G phone
• 5 megapixel camera
  
• TV quality video recorder
• GPS navigation
• Media player
• Wi-Fi

In practice:

• 3G: Video phone is a heap of fun!
• 3G: HSPDA is quite fast, can stream video competently with only occasional buffering.
  
• 3G: Just set up email today, is pull email atm - will check to see if there is push functionality.
• 5 megapixel camera may be the best in it's class, but the picture quality is relatively appaling so far
• Haven't properly tested the video yet
• Haven't properly tested the navigation yet
• Haven't properly tested the media player yet
• Haven't properly tested the wi-fi yet

Will post more about the n95 later.

Asia Cup is getting nearer and nearer. Our standby flights went through so we will be going for the whole tournament now! The good thing is we get to see more football and spend more time in Thailand. The bad thing is I have to pay for it somehow! This trip has very little focus and I find myself trying to make it a truly uber trip, only to realise that it will come with an uber price tag! A $5000 excursion is quickly turning into a $10,000 one!! eep!
