N97miniuser, 29 Sep 2010I know about the offline or flight-mode, but this is not the same as a real standby mode. In o... moreI still don't see any real use for this feature, it makes sense in laptops somewhat, but not so much in a mobile phone. Offline mode should cut all emitting so u can use it like that in the airplane for example.
I just see zero reason for this feature, either use it in offline mode like normal people or turn it off. Do you really have to do that so often that it actually bothers u having to shut it down/start it? Maybe you should really look into that offline mode. I've NEVER in my life heard anyone complain about stuff like you are.
Extremely Disappoint, 29 Sep 2010Nokia World ended 2 weeks ago. I am pretty sure they would have already known that there will ... moreWhat does that have to do with Nokia world? They said it will be late, why would it be any better if it was told in Nokia world. And no, 2 weeks is a long time, they mightve found a crucial issue that needs to be fixed just now, which can be totally someones else but Nokias fault. Like, they could have some big component batch have faulty components, but still so that they run but they break very easily, in this case they would have to track down every single N8 that component from that batch was installed in and it has to be replaced.
It can be stuff like that and that stuff isnt Nokias fault, some things you can't find without a using said device for a longer time, in which the problem would occur.
The problem isn't in shipping, it's gonna be in tweaking the software or not meeting the demand with the supply. Not enough supply to meet the current demand is certainly one of the reasons.
Anamita, 29 Sep 2010mistake from my side,
i was thinking that nokia n8 is the best,
but i was wrong,
the truth ... moreNice try at trying to be Amanita, you mispelled the name.
As for that comment, the Wave is certainly a masterpiece, but the N8 still suits me a whole lot better. Even if anything else was equal, I'd still get the N8 for its looks, design and origin.
mistake from my side,
i was thinking that nokia n8 is the best,
but i was wrong,
the truth is that,samsung wave gt-s8500 is the best in whole universe.
samsung you have done good job by making a unique master piece as samsung wave gt-s8500.

Nokia World ended 2 weeks ago. I am pretty sure they would have already known that there will be shipments issues. Did someone in their company forgot to tell the main person about this? I had delayed the recontracting of my postpaid plan hoping that i can get the N8. After the yet again delayed shipment news. I went out to the iPhone instead. Nokia - I am not giving you love anymore
Ali Abdulla, 29 Sep 2010there is a flight mode dude... its called "offline mode" press the power button... moreI know about the offline or flight-mode, but this is not the same as a real standby mode. In offline mode the N97 only turns off the radio, all other circuits are still running. Standby is a mode where everything is saved to memory and then everything switched off. When you press ON it will load the state again and be ready in seconds instead of several minutes. If Nokia still does not understand that this is important they are f#####.
awesome :)
what a great cellphone,, i wanna buy it soon :)
this phone is multifunctional, as phone nd ad a digital camera,, lol
The End of October will be the release date of the N8,so some more adjustments must be happening to make sure this phone does not let it customers down,an Nokia must be thinking with xmas not far away,November an December might be the best time to get more sales of the N8,will we get the C7 or C6-01 released before the N8,if so i might ditch the N8 as April to November along time for Nokia to get the N8 ready, but all we get is delays all the time an annoying loads of people like me an alot more
N8 rating goes down day by day.bcoz of unreleased this ghost
Anonymous, 29 Sep 2010Specs Look Awesome! And with everyone getting cross about waiting so long, you can be sure th... moreyour write about the specs iv gota bb bold and the i phone 4 and im guna get the n8. but at the min my oppinion is the bold is just as good if not better it certenly looks better but the 4 is good for the apps and its fast response touchscreen but to be honest its not much faster than my 5230 nokia i think if i get it jail broke it will be good but at the min im not down for paying for everything but i think bb bold is better in my oppinion i dont need 2 phones not to mension wen i get the n8 but at lest il no wich 1 is best then sell the ova 2.
Bye bye n8.preorder my foot.
Specs Look Awesome!
And with everyone getting cross about waiting so long, you can be sure that when nokia eventually brings out the N8 it will be a working smartphone device, unlike apple who's iPhone 4 can't make calls unless you hold it a certain way, and is so fragile the screen and back breaks when you put it down to hard.
I'm pro nokia all the way, my 5800 xpress music has treated me very well, a lot better than my iphone/blackberry friends, so I can't wait to upgrade to the N8 soon.
In Poland relased 2nd part of october - official mail from nokia shop to people who preordered N8 :(
