I don´t know why, but I tested some of them in a Nokia store and realise the black ones have this problem. The silver ones don´t. Very awkward! My opinion: Since the phones are replaced in less than one year Nokia really doesn´t care too much about quality. Some people who has the N95 has alreay shifted to N95-8G and also to the N96. That is the main problem. Eric, mine is made on Finland and have the same problem. I don´t know why, but I tested some of them in a Nokia store and realise the black ones have this problem.

I sent them my box and for $49/mo I now have super fast bandwidth ie. video quality, no channel conflicts and free reboots if it locks up. It's a beta currently but accepting limited new customers, was lucky enough to get in and lovin it.
