Updated , Welcome to the Club !
Added on April 9, 2007, 7:16 amHow GPS works .
The phone will try to detect as many GPS satellite . When u view the Satellite Info . There will be Numbers and bars . The longer the bar , the more precise . To get LOCK ON , u need to wait (probably 5minutes sometimes 1min) until 3 or more bar turn black . Then u can use the GPS.

Malsingmaps pretty much covers the whole of Peninsula Malaysia, including smaller towns. I use GPS a lot due to the nature of my work which requires extensive travel to new places all the time. It saves me time from referring to a hard copy of the map.

It was by the seaside so out of curiosity, i took out my phone to use the GPS to detect where i am and it managed to lock me on less than 1 minute. And i have been wrong about the place location all this while.

I pretty much hate it if it restarts often. I'm deciding whether should I get it now or wait for the second batch (if there's one) since there the slider issue too.

N95 is Nokia's first HSDPA phone (is it...?). The selling point is supposed to be the HSDPA feature. GPS is like bonus to it. So as the TV-out function.
To me GPS is still useless if the map that u have installed/downloaded is out-dated. Furthermore, u will likely to get disconnected/unlocked if u travel underneath a tunnel or even trees. And when it's rainy day, u know what happen.
So, my ready-made GPS are gas stations, police stations or even ordinary ppl. If u watch Amazing Race, u know what i mean.
even though i've never tested N95 myself, but from local & international reviews, i've concluded that this is actually Nokia's 'worst' product. They are trying hard to compete with Samsung and Moto in the HSDPA-enabled phones. looks like Sony is way behind in this group. But i'm pretty sure Sony will do their entensive R&D and testing before commercialised their product.
Overall, i will not buy this model due to it's unreasonable price vs. stability/performance issues. Looks like N95 is NOT WHAT THE COMPUTERS HAVE BECOME. It's supposed to be Dopod U1000 (i guess...) Edited: oh yes what else u need inside ur pocket... EXTRA BATTERY(S)... U know what i mean if u watch the TV ads.##
