why would they be pushing the n95? its the e90 that is at the forefront right now. n95 has been out to long.
I think the N95 is still a "phone for the masses" (you know, the masses with $700 laying about for a phone) unlike the E90, a phone for the super-dedicated. Plus it looks an awful lot like a computer, so saying computers would have envy over tiny computers isn't as amusing.
Remember, this ad campaign is focused on Europe, where the N95 is pretty inexpensive if you get it with a contract. Vodafone UK has it for free if you get a high end service plan, so you really don't have to have $700 laying around if you happen to live in a country with a decent mobile carrier (i.e. not the USA or Canada).
