I have been very busy today and have not any time to seriously check out my new Nokia N85 that arrived this morning.
I did manage to shoot a quick unboxing video and some images, included below.

The N85 I ordered yesterday arrived at my workplace this morning – I took the above picture just after opening the box.
I will post initial thoughts and impressions; more images and video as soon as possible…

All I can do now is wait…
Nokia N85 units came into stock at online retailer Proshop this morning, and I immediately ordered one.

As a part of my effort to conserve battery power – and thus optimize battery life – on my mobile, I switch my mobile to the ‘Offline’ profile every night.
I used to do so manually – switching to ‘Offline’ every night, and then back again to ‘General’ every morning. I am sure there is something to be said for manual labour, but in this case, I really could do without – especially since I use more than one mobile phone (hey, who doesn't?).
Well, thanks to Jukka Silvennoinen’s Y-Profiler Scheduler I now can.
As the name suggests, Y-Profile Scheduler enables you to set up schedules for automatic switching between profiles – the application is really simple to set up and works really well.

Since posting a price check for Nokia N79, N85 and N96 a month ago, I have kept an eye on information about prices and availability for these three handsets. The N96 has of course started shipping and the N79 and N85 were both announced to begin shipping in October. In the past few days, several online retailers in Scandinavia have updated their N79 and N85 product pages with more specific availability dates.
Prices have been updated too. When I last checked prices, the N79 was priced at 614 $ on average, the N85 at 749 $. Those prices have by now been cut by somewhere between 40 $ and 55 $.

My initial impression of the Nokia N82 was not very positive. It seemed to me, the N82 was nothing more than a N95 in a different casing and I just did not see the point to it.
Further, I disliked the casing chosen for the N82. I think the N95 is “chubby” in a cute way that fits the hand perfectly. I found the N82 to be big and clunky, and its “stick” keypad wonky.
Lately, I have been given the opportunity to revise my take on the N82. For over a month, I have been using the N82 as my everyday phone – ever since putting my 6220 Classic up for sale – and I must say, the N82 has been growing on me. I have really come to appreciate some aspects of this handset … maybe even love it?
