Is this going to be the iPhone killer? I doubt it, but it seems to be getting a lot of buzz.

Nokia's N95 (Unlocked North America Version)
This expensive smartphone (as much as $700!) has received rave reviews. It's extremely feature packed, but is it selling? At a recent announcement by Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, chief executive of Nokia, he advised that they thought that they "could teach the U.S. market how we do business elsewhere, and frankly, that failed.

Expect more from Nokia in the coming months including iPhone like phones with full internet based services like games and music downloads. Finally, the cell phone game is getting interesting.
