Nokia N95 missing Microsoft Activesync

I found out today that the Nokia N95 doesn't actually ship with the Microsoft ActiveSync feature and apparently Nokia only release this in their 'E' series or range of handsets which are more aimed at the business (not the standard retail consumer level)

It was a big surprise, as the N95 is certainly a high end phone and out of reach of most average cell phone users.

The other problem I have found with the N95 is the extremely poor battery life. The user is forever recharging due to heavy demands from applications on the N95

LG Prada goes end of line

LG (Lucky Goldstar) has announced one of their flagship phones the LG Prada has gone end of line (EOL) due to poor sales and uptake of their touchscreen phone. Seemingly the earliest form of the iPhone - high price and limited features meant the LG Prada was very highly priced at above $1000 per unit.
