Nokia N95 Wins a "Best Of What's New" Award

Nokia announced recently that the Nokia N95 multimedia computer, one of the newest devices in the company's Nseries range, was honored with Popular Science magazine's "Best of What's New" Award in the publication's annual search for the top 100 technology innovations of the year.

The Nokia N95 offers a premier multimedia experience in a unique dual-slider device, including integrated GPS, a 5 megapixel camera, digital music player, full PIM functionality and support for high-speed wireless networks; these are all features that take this device to a new level. The innovative 2-way slide concept makes it easy to switch between different modes, from reading maps to watching videos. A numeric keypad slides out from one end of the device while dedicated media keys slide out from the opposite direction, converting the display into full screen landscape mode.

With the integrated GPS technology and Maps application, it is easy to explore the world. The exclusive Carl Zeiss optics makes shooting and watching DVD-like quality videos on a compatible television using Universal Plug and Play technology or the included TV-out cable easy. Photos and videos can also be emailed or uploaded to compatible blogs or photo sites. The high-quality 2.6" QVGA 16 million color display, 3D graphics and intuitive user interface makes it easy to interact with all the features and services offered on this innovative device.

The Nokia N95 is expected to start shipping in volumes during the first quarter of 2007 at an estimated unsubsidized retail price of 550 euros in European and Asian markets.
