NOKIA N95? sat nav?

[stirlinggaz]

hi all,
im thinking of getting another mobile & fancy something cheap but with sat nav built in, & anything would be better than my antique samsung tocco!
anyway, the NOKIA N95 i have seen advertised as having sat nav built in, but some ebay listings include a seperate gps receiver, whereas some adverts say the seperate gps box isnt needed.
whats the story then? do i need the box? or have some been upgraded in some way?
i dont know that much about mobiles so any advice welcome,
or recommend something similar?
cheers,
GAZ

N95 does have built in GPS. However, you will need to install some navigation software to make use of it, or pay for the built in software (if you don't pay you get a map but no proper navigation). Nokia have started giving away the maps software for free but as of yet they haven't released it for the N95.

I'd say go for something else as it can be a real faff installing navigation software on the S60 3rd edition phones.

Ovi maps has been released for nokia N95 and now features free voice navigation, you can get it through the software update feature on the phone. I installed it on mine just before I decided that enough was enough and the phone was in fact, a useless piece of plastic shit that was just masquerading as a "flagship" phone.

I would honestly recommend you stay away from the N95, even with the V2 firmware it's still arse.
