With the spectre of the iPhone still looming in the minds of the world's early adopters, Nokia are hoping to steal a march on Steve Jobs with their latest batch of technological wizardry.
Both the E90 Communicator and the N95 squeeze in a new function for mobile phones: GPS. Instantly upping the ante, both phones are 3G and feature-packed, with the N95 compressing an unfeasible amount of power into its twin-sliding design - including a 5-megapixel camera and 3D graphics.
The larger Communicator is the newest incarnation of the company's clamshell mini-computer, with full-size keyboard and an onboard suite of business software. Both use Nokia's sober new design language to the full, announcing their next-generation intentions without resorting to flashy tricks and materials.
