The N95 8GB Swings Out
The Nokia N95 8GB has begun shipping to selected markets — check out this device page on N-Gage.com for all the juicy details on this multimedia computer.
But as the name suggests, one of the key features is the eight gigabytes of memory built right into the device.
As part of the rollout, and to show off this storage capacity, there is a special version that is coming pre-loaded with a full-length feature film.
The film is Spider-Man 3, the third installment in the Peter Parker saga from Sony Pictures Entertainment. The special version of the N95 8GB with the film preloaded is available in Europe and selected markets in Africa and the Middle East. It also includes Spider-Man goodies such as a ring tone, wallpaper, and a screen saver.
How to start the movie:
Go to Menu -> Video Centre -> My Videos
Select “Spider-Man 3″
The movie will begin automatically and it will play in full-screen landscape mode. The My Videos folder also includes a movie trailer.
It’s pretty amazing that devices like these today have so much memory they can come preloaded with an entire film. Makes you wonder what’s in store a few years down the road — maybe a device with all twenty seasons of The Simpsons pre-installed, or the entire film catalog of Stanley Kubrick.

Don’t forget that you can plug the N95 8GB (and the N95, and N93, and N93i) into your TV set so you could watch this film on a large screen too, although I’m not sure what resolution it will output at.
The N95 can output video to a TV at VGA resolution, but the original video file has to be at this resolution for this to work.

It would be great to have my videos ready on the phone memory and just plug it to TV and watch, like it’s moveable video player. My friends will enjoy this. I would like to play the phone games on the TV too with enough good resolution. Can they made some gadget device to make the resolution of the output from the phone better? Like playing PS1/2 games on PS3?

Ljancho, the N93 and N95 CAN do VGA video resolution which is the same resolution as a standard definition television, but only if the video file on the memory card is encoded at this resolution. If the file is lower res, the picture on the screen will be lower res.
