its true, N8 does not suport DIVX
"Often can be heard rumors that the device supports DivX / Xvid immediately after removing from the sales package, or that it is not necessary firmware. The device does not provide support for these codecs, and is thus required a special player (yet to be developed, none of the existing software did not work on my N8). It is unlikely that Nokia will add such support in the future, since this is not the main issue for most users. That's the reason why it has taken a big disadvantage. Indeed, the Korean phones have it but it is not so important."

                      Nokia phones will be hacked for Android OS, look at the N900 it has been hacked and runs Android.

                            just a small but useful little bit of info for those that still think the screen is capacitive:

                            capacitive screens can only be used with your finger; no glove, no stylus, no nothing besides your finger(s).

                            seeing as it has handwriting recognition, unless you plan on writing with your finger it can't be capacitive.

                            nokia never said anything about a capacitive screen, and all of it's touchscreens have always used resistive screens, so unless proven otherwise you should assume it is resistive.

                            that being said, i'm open to any argument any of you might have to prove the screen is in fact capacitive.

                            seeing as capacitives don't work with a stylus, it might be a "hybrid", but that's highly unlikely.

                            i will buy bn8

                              Anonymous, 30 Aug 2010If The Samsung Galaxy is an iPhone killer than why hasn't the iPhone died.....LOL In fact i... moreIphone is sucks in many thngs, it is a nice phone in certain ways, but if it had the features of the Galaxy S and N8 then it would be a awsome phone.
                              But Iphone is not the best phone at this moment sorry to say that, but the fact and specs does not lie.

                                  jai rocks, 30 Aug 2010specs are not 100 percent correct.. it doeesnt play avi format files... i have tried that..Don't you know that an .avi file can be just about ANY FORMAT?
                                  testing an ".avi" file for playback is totally not representative for Divx support
