We've spilled a lot of ink over Nokia's 8GB N95 uber-phone [1], so we're glad that it's finally come to this: Nokia has broken down and announced a U.S. version of the handset. As you might expect, it's nearly identical to its European counterpart [2]--that is to say 2.8 inch display, HSDPA, WiFi, A-GPS, and 5-megapixel camera--save for the 3G radio, which has been replaced with a U.S.-friendly 850/1900Mhz radio, for surfing those high-speed wireless Intertubes in the land of the free. Arriving some time this quarter for the wallet-draining price of $750. Class dismissed.
