The N95 was a god-like phone of the pre-iPhone era.

* 5MP camera with an amazing lens and dedicated shutter button

* 8GB(?) of flash and dedicated music controls

* Internet Hotspot

* Copy and paste (zing!)

I loved it then and yet I was still awful at making use of its potential.

I remember it also had native SIP support and you could configure an account to connect automatically only when the phone connected to a certain wifi network. So I had my work extension on when I connected to the work wifi. It was really nice

Now even Google has dropped the (rarely functional) SIP support in the dialer despite almost all voice traversing SIP to smartphones today.

Everyone has their silo'ed version of SIP plus a few extra features resold & repackaged as something unique and new to the market.
