Ricky at Symbian-guru.com reports that the new US optimized Nokia N95, also known as the Nokia N95-3 is available to purchase ($699 USD) at the Nokia Flagship Stores in Chicago and New York. At the moment only the sand colored model (seen above at the left) seems to be in stock, but the black ones should soon be available. Read more of Ricky’s post here.

Also you might wanna check Darla’s posts on the N95-3, she received one before the release and has written two articles, the first one describes her initial impression and the second one is a battery life comparison to the old N95 (yes it’s old by now!).

The new cool phone is unfortunately still not available at the online stores, nokiausa.com or nseries.com.
