The E65 lacks HSDPA (UMTS only) and is annoyingly slow by today's standard imho.

But I'd also advice against the N96 - get a N85 when it comes out (in a couple of weeks). Smaller, thinner, much better battery life, cheaper...or get a E66/E71 now. Both are nothing short of stunning (I currently use a E71 and I pretty much love it).

And the first touchscreen phone by Nokia since the dreadful 7710 back in 2004 will be out in about a month as well, if rumors can be believed.
