It's AAS Insight number 2, also known as AAS podcast number 48... err... you are following this, aren't you? In this show, Rafe, Ewan and I discuss 3's Xseries services (on Nokia N95 and N73) and Skype on smartphones generally. If you haven't subscribed yet, here's the RSS feed!
Guest writer Matt Radford brings us his impressions of the Apple iPhone after a lifetime of S60 use, from Nokia 7650 to N70. Although the transition would have been even more apt if he'd gone from something more up to date like an N95, it's still a terrifically interesting comparison and a good read.
Going for a business device doesn't mean missing great photo opportunities. I took a few moments out this month to snap some of the colourful Autumn and to see what the Nokia E90's 3 megapixel camera could really do. It's not an N95, but it's close.
Yes, you know all about S60 games and you know about the upcoming N-Gage titles, but what about all those games tucked away in publisher folders inside your Download! application? Medal of Honour, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07, etc? In the interests of experimentation, I bought a batch and here report back on J2ME games via Download! Your comments welcome, as always!

Kudos. Nokia, please take note of this list of things you need to fix and add. Users, enjoy - I wonder how many of these we'll see in the real world?
(C) 'Attention Grabbing Headlines Ltd.' No, of course, I wouldn't rather have a 'classic' N95 than the newer 8GB model, if offered both for Christmas, but there's still a real story here. I argue that there are enough positives for the 'classic' as to keep it a contender. Read on...
PDA Essentials issue 68 hits the streets today (in the UK, at least), with a special section on their prestigious annual awards (in conjunction with the likes of Clove and Expansys). Of interest here is that the Nokia N95 got voted the 'Best Smartphone', in a hotly contested category (beating the Sony Ericsson P1i, among others). The Nokia E90 lost out to the HTC TyTN II for 'Best PDA' and, curiously, there wasn't a category for best 'communicator' or 'business/email' device. For more detail, go buy your own copy!
