Hey guys, hope you are doing well. I am lying in my bed cause I'm having fever. But yet had to write here cause some of the people here are boasting out about some stupid topics.
The reason N8 (and most of other phones) doesn't play the radio without the headphone because there is a reason. Suppose you are travelling in a bus (along with other people you might not know). You feel like listening to the radio (but maybe others don't feel like listening to ANYTHING, they feel like sleeping). If you switch on your radio, then you plug in the headphone & listen to it yourself. How many of us will attach a headphone & listen to the radio loud? I know I won't. This is the same reason the phones (also the laptops) don't have the speaker so loud. If you wanna listen to music or radio, just put in a headphone & listen to it.
To that matter, the same reason makes the camera sound (even if you change your profile to silent/meeting). People love to have privacy, but little they care about other peoples' privacy. People like to boast about their gadgets. That is why the FCC rules are there to make your phone produce a sound (and/or lid a light) when you take a picture (even if you attach a headphone or make the profile silent) and make the loud speaker NOT LOUD ENOUGH to make sure you don't disturb others.
Anyway, take care.

    Shine, 23 Oct 2010As comparing Wid iPhone 4 Nokia n8 stands no where! Iphone 4 is only for entertainment and displaying, N8 is a real smartphone for smart people. Just compare the specs of N8 & Iphone4 plus the price ratio. Don't believe in the bloggers and reviewers specially those from the US that says Iphone4 is the best smartphone, they are part of the marketing payroll of Apple that is why Apple products are very expensive. You can check to sites like gsmarena where the common people and the real users are giving comments and ratings.

It has light detector so it will automatically adjust the right brightness to your environment. Screen is an amoled LCD but a gorilla glass which is almost scratch proof (you can put it in your pocket together with the keys, coins, or even swiss knife without getting scratch on the screen). It has the best "real time" touch experience so far. It's camera is the best for today's smartphones with carl zeiss optic and Xenon flash unlike others using only LED flash (Xenon flash is far better than LED flash just learn to setup your phone's camera). I was very much satisfied with my previous 5MP N82 phone with a Xenon flash viewing in my large LCD TV and N8 is better with 12MP. And don't forget the new breakthrough in smartphone feature of your N8, YOU CAN NOW COPY FILES FROM A USB FLASH DRIVE directly to your mobile without a need for a PC or laptop.

          anywayz, it has an anti-reflection layer... so it should be alot better under the sun, compared to regular AMOLED screens(nexus one for example)

                But you should get clear picture. Better check with The agent you bought from.

                      N8 is officially launched today in the Philippines. But I will have to wait until February 9 before I get my hands on this magnificent device. I can't wait.

                                    Here's my latest experience with the N8:
                                    1) Ovi Player and the n8 performs flawlessly together. Transferred some 5-6 songs and it took 10-15seconds. Putting up album art makes your song collection on the N8 pretty cool.
                                    2) Making phone calls from the contacts list takes too many steps. The 5800 was easier to use. The maps integration with contacts' address is really cool.
                                    3) Could not install cryptograf messaging(for sending encrypted sms) on the N8. Many complex apps are still not re-coded for symbian 3^.
                                    4) Connection manager is great but finding the destinations feature was hard. It's in settings>connection>settings>destinations.
                                    5) The camera is great. Hardware is tough and feels great.
                                    6) Widgets on the homescreen are a great feature.
                                    7) Email works great but be sure to set your internet destinations properly for a speedier and cheaper connection.
                                    8)Photo editing is very useful for simple task.
