16.4, 05 Oct 2010hey wheez.
i need lil bit of explanation on the modem.
how does it work as a modem.
second... moreThe modem thing was as easy as connecting the device via cable or bluetooth, when it gets the connection, you just select PC Modem or something and pretty much good to go.
The N8 can be used as a WIFI hotspot as well with JoikuSpot, but I havn't tried it myself.
And whoever asked, yes, I do recommend this phone, from the bottom of my heart!

New waver, 05 Oct 2010Mark, I read that. So I know about the pentile matrix already and the blue-red subpixels adjac... moreNew waver, I am an N8 owner. N8 does not have CBD, but N8 has true white and Samsung S-amoled is too blueish which doesn't look good when it displays dark color. I believe N8 display in this sense looks better in my personal experience and feel.

GsmaArena says N8 supports video codecs : Divx/Xvid/H264/H263/WMV but nokia websites says only H264\MPEG4
Anybody has any idea what are the video codecs supported in real

Mark, 05 Oct 2010Good response, we should check it out ourselves. I am saying that, according to Ars Technica, ... moreI don't give a hoot about awards too, just that it must have something for them to acknowledge it. Don't know if you've read anything by them but they are very detailed and unbiased in their comparisons (not to mention harsh when they see something bad). :)
Secondly, I don't have a Galaxy S and never seen 1 actually (does my display name here give you a hint ? ;)) So I have a 3.3 inch Super amoled and not a 4.
And comeon, After what has been done by engadget and mobile review, you and me both know that Pictures CAN lie. Moreover, the link starts with "mynokiablog" :) I see the other side of the bias just in the name.
That is why I said, its better to compare it personally rather than reading reviews/checking out pictures.
I for one give a great deal of importance to personal experience, be it a device or a person. Thats why I am here, because I went to check out N8 personally even after reading those reviews which tell nothing of what the phone really is. =)

New waver, 05 Oct 2010Mark, I read that. So I know about the pentile matrix already and the blue-red subpixels adjac... moreGood response, we should check it out ourselves. I am saying that, according to Ars Technica, and my own observations, WVGA on pentile 4" is grainer, more pixellated than nHD on 3,5". This had nothing to do with color reproduction etc, as it is a matter of taste as well. Fact remains, text looks worse on a Galaxy S than on a N8 because of this. (I am not discussing sunlight legibility and I dont give a flying hoot about awards)
BTW I happen to like the N8 Amoled more indeed. Check this out:

Tell me the Galaxy S display does not look like crap compared to CBD, or even the N8? Based on those images, what looks better?

Waiting, 05 Oct 2010Does anyone in the UK have their phone yet ? i am still being told end of October by Nokia !!!!I Guess that's a NO then !

Heh, 18 hours since I charged the phone with plenty of usage as browsing web, calls, using it as a modem for my netbook for 1 hour and the battery is still full!
When we consider that it will probably drop down to like 80% suddenly, but still hasnt, so the battery is between 100%-80% currently.
Lovin' the battery life :D
