The current top most model of Nokia's N series the Nokia N95, is not just a smartphone, but a phenomenon in itself. Nokia's worldwide ad campaign of N series being closer to computers have got a big boost after the launch of the Nokia N95. This Symbian OS v9.2, S60 rel 3.1 smartphone is truly closer to a multimedia computer than an ordinary mobile phone. Initially, during its launch, the handset's almost unending feature list had raised many eyebrows in disbelief. Even today, the handset remains firmly atop of the competition, and serving as an example for other to follow.

built wise, the Nokia N95 is a bit large with its dimension reading 99 x 53 x 21 mm and weighs 120 grams. The handset comes in a stylish silver casing with unique 2 way sliding mechanism. An unconventional upward slide of the Nokia N95 reveals a set of dedicated media control keys, thus giving a strong hint about the handset's music playing skills. The Symbian media player is compatible with almost all popular formats and plays them with great clarity and immense power. sound output option includes built in speakers, wireless bluetooth stereo headset or any preferred headphones with 3.5 mm audio jack apart from the standard pair of headset shipped with the kit.

Another major multimedia feature of the Nokia N95 is its colossal 5.0 megapixel camera module piled with all possible imaging aids modern day technology had to offer. These includes digital zoom, autofocus, timer, flash with anti red eye, white balance, special effects and a full fledged image and video editor. Moreover, the handset's camera module is fitted with Carl Zeiss optics lens for high quality imaging.

The Nokia N95 is a top of the line connectivity device with incorporation of options and technologies like Quad band, HSDPA, gprs, EDGE, wifi, bluetooth v2.0, infrared and usb and many more. The handset even features built in GPS navigation system with installed map application covering over hundred countries across the world.

Close but no cigar could be the post-theme of super bowl XL as far as a record las vegas super Bowl handle is concerned.

Pittsburgh defeated Seattle 21-10 sunday -- easily covering the spread --- the total went way under 47, Bill Cowper finally won a Lombardi and the Bus finally rolled a stop, while on top.

The $6,064,000 question in the Land of odds -- besides "did you win or lose?" was "Will the handle surpass last year's standard of more than $90 million?"

"I won't know until sometime monday when I see all the numbers and things come together, but it's going to be close," said tony Paonessa, race and sports book manager at Sam's Town.

"Last year was close."

Rich Baccellieri, race and sports director at the Palms, used the C word too.

"It was amazing how close everything was," Bacellieri said, pointing to a differential of 50 in the number of tickets written on the two super Bowl combatants among thousands sold.

"Right now I couldn't tell you what the city's handle was, just how we did here and our business was up 65 percent.

"That creates so much juice.

"But I'll tell you this: we needed Pittsburgh."

many vegas Valley sports books kicked off at Steelers minus 4, but 4 1/2s were available throughout the wagering period (including at the las vegas Hilton) and 5s were spotted here and there.

The Palms dove in at 3 1/2.

"We got money from every Seattle fan in the world," Baccellieri said, acknowledging he took "several" six-figure bets.

"We had a lot of late money on the Seahawks, but the money line was fairly balanced."

The Hilton also took a bundle on the Far Northwesterns -- until just before wagering windows were shuttered.

"We had lots of Seahawks backing until a last minute rush on the Steelers," said oddsmaker/supervisor Jeff Sherman.

He also reported a win for the house.

"Parlay cards had a good handle and average win, while props did very well," Sherman said. "It just took awhile to grade them."

SuperBook boss Jay Kornegay had a strong opinion on Pittsbugh going into the game.

The Palms broke even on parlay cards, while Sam's Town reported a "small winning day."

"The important thing is we didn't lose," Paonessa said, adding that the Boyd Group was a loser on the total.

All three resorts reported heavy traffic as Sin City circumvented the nfl ban on super Bowl parties by offering food and drink specials and showing the game on regulation-sized TVs throughout the casinos.

"We were busy, but I've seen better," Paonessa said.

"We were busy all day," said Baccellieri, a veteran Caesars Palace employee who hadn't been in vegas for the super Bowl in five or six years

"Always before I saw it from the perspective of a major strip hotel," he continued.

"It was fun, different, to view it from an off-strip one.

"I'd call it a decent day."

not even close.

There are now programs that allow you to play your favorite nintendo 64, Sega, gb, gbc and other console games on your PSP. Even though you can't insert a nintendo 64 cartridge on your PSP, there is a software that emulates it which are called emulators. Let us first discuss emulators. An emulator duplicates (provides an emulation of) the functions of one system with a different system, so that the second system behaves like (and appears to be) the first system. This focus on exact reproduction of external behavior is in contrast to simulation, which concerns an abstract model of the system being simulated, often considering internal state. Most emulators just emulate a hardware architecture - if operating system firmware or software is required for the desired software, it must be provided as well (and may itself be emulated). Both the OS and the software will then be interpreted by the emulator, rather than being run by native hardware. Emulators are specialized for a given system to emulate, meaning there are emulators specified for playing nintendo 64 games on your PSP and another emulator for playing Sega games.

Now that you know what an emulator is, let us now go to the second step, which is the actual installation of the emulator on your PSP. Before we can start the installation process, you'll first need an emulator. There are many different kind of emulators out there in the internet and most are free for download but before you download, make sure to read the specification of the emulator to make sure that your system is compatible with it. (These emulators are home brewed and will mostly run on systems using a 1.5 firmware and may or may not support newer versions.)

Installing an emulator is easy but installation process may vary according to the emulator used. These following steps are based for the Daedalus emulator:

nintendo 64

* Name: Daedalus

* speed: Slow, most games run around 10-15 FPS

Basic install Instructions

1. Open the .zip and extract it.

2. If on 1.5 copy the contents of the 1.5 .zip to PSP/GAME.

3. If on 1.0 of custom firmware copy the contents of the 1.0 .zip to the

PSP/GAME folder.

Roms installation:

Finally copy ROMs to the ROMS folder in the Daedalus folder, The installation process is most likely the same on other emulators.
