Symbian has announced the US 3G N95 with HSDPA. It’s going to be priced at $699 from the Nokia stores and Nokiausa.com, but will also be available through retailers such as Hi-Mobile.net, CTImiami, and Plemix.
If (for some odd reason) you’re not familiar with this variant, here’s some linkage for ya:

There’s even been some lucky fools over at HowardForums who participated in the S60 Agents program in New York that have received their units.
Jonathan Greene has decided he HAS to have one, even over his iPhone.
Do I want one? Heck yes. When I was in London I had the pleasure of using my N95 on T-mobile’s 3G network and let me tell you, ME WANT. Availability should be really soon, but no official date has been shared.
Hey Ricky..
Lucky Fools is it? :-p Come on now, don’t be harsh..
We don’t say that when you get a phone that we don’t have..
Making me not want to bring the phone to LA.
Ricky: I’m hurt … “lucky fools”??? So what WAS in your mystery box??? huh?
I remember that Ricky initially pegged September for release when he first broke this story, but some other sites implied that we wouldn’t see the phone until the end of the year. I’m definitely glad to hear it’s coming sooner rather than later!
Haha @ Gwapz and ArLequin, tis all in fun. I suppose you could say I’m the fool who hasn’t even TOUCHED one yet, much less gotten one. Sounds like I should start harassing my contacts..
And my mystery package, well, the first ended up being a very sweet Thank You card for attending the London event, but the other one should be here this week sometime, and you can bet I’ll have a video of me opening it (since I haven’t a clue what it is).
Man, I can’t wait for this phone to drop. I’ve already decided it’s my next one.. the funny thing? I won’t even have access to 3G since I’m not on AT&T.
It’s all about the RAM baby, all about the RAM!
-olly
IF IM A FOOL FOR GETTING A U.S.3G N95 THEN THATS WHAT I WANNA BE. CHEERS
when is going to be released????
