For me, i want to get the most of data services. I'm hoping to use Orb with the N95 on the move like i can to my Laptop at work, using the software to stream music from my MP3 library & recorded/live TV from the my Library/decoder located my home PC to my N95 in real time. Thus I don’t have to carry around hundreds of GB of data get access to all my media.
Thus on net data transfer cost will be most important what operator / tariff do all consider most appropriate for this?. (T-mobile Web& walk plus looks like the choice but I heard Voda is bringing out some flat rate tarrif's in the near future what do O2 and Orange offer?)
Are there any other kinda techie but cool things that people of thought of?

For uses you are going to need 3's X-Series really.
Although T-Mobile has unlimited data, the fair use policy stops you using programs like Orb.

I thought that was just for the Web & Walk standard, The Web & Walk plus seems to allow streaming services & connection to other computers, while the Web & Walk max allows Voip as well.
Or have i misread somthing?

Your right, I think they do. So they would be suitable.

I guess you could call straping the N95 to a rocket car, "cool" of sorts. lol.:rolleyes:

Yes it will! If you get yours before I get mine, please can you make me one with milk and 1 sugar? :-)

Cool! The treo couldn't do that, cos the infrared wasn't strong enough to boil water. I know someone who tried...
In the same vein, will the infrared change TV channels?

You can get a programme to use it as a remote. :-).

Any pointers as to where. I remember trying to do a search for that as I have an n73 and it should be able to do the same thing. Couldn't find anything though, or maybe it was that I couldn't find any freeware...

Maybe in time this could be shrunk down and encorporated onto our phones?

Also one of the most things to really impress me is being able to print images on your mobile phone. The phone itself doesn't contain any ink, instead the paper has pigments which react to different temperatures so the temperature control device (printer) would activate different temps to get certain colours. Something to look out for in the not-so-distant future ;)
