Nokia N95

What do you guys think about the Nokia N95 as a clinician's gadget? Also, I am currently a second year medical student. When do you guys recommend buying such a device? I just ran across a Nokia N95 and it looked like it surpasses the iphone on multiple levels... But so does the price.

Re: Nokia N95

Hi MDDM,

I think the N95 is a very nice gadget. One thing to consider is what kind of software you want run on it.

Most medical software only works on Windows Mobile or Palm OS devices although there is increasing support for Blackberries.

You will be able to access browser based software like Unbound Medicine and UpToDate but you will need to be in a wirelss network or use you phone's data connection to do this.
