For an unsubsidized, unlocked phone I think it's a fair deal. People just need to understand that phones are expensive. It's cheaper than the N95 USED to be and just a few dollars more than it is NOW. And everyone will agree it's better: better screen, microusb sync/charge, smaller, newer OS, FM transmitter, etc. It will probably go down in price in a few months. The Euro N85 is down below $500.
Compared to the $300 price on-contract or the $500 price off-contract from AT&T of the Touch Pro (Fuze), I would say this phone wins. Of course they are very different phones, but for me at least the N85 has all of the important features.
