    avoid the fake ones on ebay especially that have touch screens.

    you can see some good bargains on adverts also. I was impatience and went with ebay. I will pm you with the vendor/reseller I used but have a good look around. There are a few key things you need to look out for,

    make sure not a touch screen as this is a fake
    make sure it is unlocked/sim free
    make sure it has the correct 3G freq for EU 2100mHz as I have seen some US phones that only support 850 and 1900mHz
    boxed as new so you have all the cable, charger, disc etc.
    check the postal charge as can be excessive
    That it is N95 II and not the N95 I with an 8gb card included

    When i got the phone it branded O2 and V15 firmware and spiderman movie. I updated the firmware to latest version (you have to read up on this as not straight forward to do and will void warrently), this removed the branding and the key to spider man movie but wasn't interested in this, used the sticky for the network settings and happy days, great phone.


    The usual ebay stuff, vendor greater than 99% satifaction, good feedback, also applies.
