Looks like a black version of the N95 just hit the FCC. We're really digging the black exterior, and they've added 8GB of internal memory under the hood. We also peeped a reference to
Nokia's new music store (
Nokia.com/music, dead in our browser and on our N95) in the user manual.
The test report and manual both indicate that this model does not have US 3G, which seems to indicate that the model
we've seen rumored with US 3G is a different version of the N95.
Update: Further perusal of the FCC documents indicates that this version of the N95 uses the BL-6F battery, which is indeed higher capacity than the original N95, 1200 mAh vs. 950 mAh. Also, it looks like the FCC has also
approved the US 3G version of the N95 today, which indicates that these two phones are definitely different models.

Test reports
Bottom of the phone, looks like we're still stuck with the Nokia charging port on this model.
Front closed, looks like the old N95, just black.
Opened up, again no surprises
Top of the phone. you can see from the profile along the back that the camera doesn't jut out anymore. We've seen this same change in the rumored N95 3G model, supposedly it's to house a bigger battery, but there's no information about battery capacity for this model.
FCC diagram, nothing special here.
Title of the user guide confirms it's an 8GB model.
There's a section in the manual that talks about Nokia's new music store. The link provided doesn't work right now.
The manual explains that there's only support for international 3G. We don't know if the rumored US 3G model will be entirely separate or if Nokia is going to release a US version of the 8GB version as well.
More confirmation from the manual that the 8GB of storage is built in. Without good shots of the left side of the device we don't know what happened to the Micro SD slot, but there's no mention of it in the manual.
Another interesting tidbit is that Nokia has changed the interface for the menu launched by the multimedia key (again).
Like the photos we've seen of the rumored 3G N95 this one has new domed music playback controls.
