First of all; Lets start with the following. Their are currently 4 different
models of the N95. Two of them that have the 2100 MHZ band for 3G and two
that have the USA 850/1900 MHZ 3G bands.
The N95-1 People call the N95 classic that has the 2100 MHZ 3G band. Then
the N95-2 or the N95-8GB that has the 2100 MHZ 3G band. Then you have the
N95-3 that has the USA 850/1900 MHZ 3G bands.
Lastly is the N95-4 that is the USA version with 8GB of built in flash
memory. The only differences between the N95-3 and N95-4 is the fact the
N95-4 has 8GB of flash memory. However the N95-3 will take a 8GB MicroSDHC
card.
