Nope, still havent got around to it yet, mainly because the 3GS aint even multitasking and that is a complete pain in the arse for GPS apps alone, and the 4 has that stupid antenna design problem and is too new to be decent value anyway. > If so, do you miss the N95? Nope, still using it. The only thing I really miss is a decent touch screen. That works so well on the TomTom GPS that I wish the phone had it too. I've been a bit tempted to go to one of the later Nokias like the N97 to get that but then the iphone changed to proper multitasking with the 4 and that tempted me even more, particularly that X10 app. I use X10 multiple times a day and I have to remember the numbers with the current X10 remotes. Thats not that convenient given that I have almost run out of numbers in a single X10 block.
