I'm looking forward Threaded Messaging on the N8. Since my ever increasing inpatience using my 5800. But what feature benefits they are. This is nice.

It would be nice if Nokia wre allowed to enter into patent agreement for Samsung/Android Swipe text, that would be super in S^3. Since webkit & Qt should be accessible across platform. Let's see if we can get swype to text.

Nokia's Slogon "What will you do with it" My answer, things that are neither seen or heard of on the Iphone. HA HA HA.

What say you?

    To that dude who said n97, n97 mini, c6, x6, 5800, 5230 are the same. Dude everyones doing the same thing:
    Sony ericsson : vivaz, vivaz pro, x10 mini, x10 mini pro
    Samsung: i9000 galaxy s, vibrant, captivate, wave pro, wave pro 2

    They are all doing the same thing, not only nokia! Putting in a couple of keyboards on similar devices is giving the customer choices, not everyones uses every facility in a phone and those who do pay extra for the features that they want.

          I was checking some of the older nokias and I was wondering why nokia was always using the same processor with the same ram and basically the same hardware but just kept rebadging it into a different package and then sell it.

          Is this a strategy or did all those phones really had something different between them? Why are they doing this?

          N97
          N97mini
          C6
          X6
          5800
          5230

          They are basically all the same phones. Changing dimensions or adding a qwerty keyboard isn't groundbreaking or innovate. Its just a variation of the same phone. I just wanted to know why they are doing that.

                Symbian is really for the smarter users. The development possibilities of symbian are practically endless. You have to be a symbian user to truly appreciate it's power. No other OS has so much flexibility and customisability than symbian. Those who don't see this ignore it and start bashing it as dated and laggy OS. But in smater hands, symbian can be every bit as powerful as any other OS today.
                And to all samsung users here, Bada is a joke. Just think for yourself. What good is a smartphone if you cant even download a zip or rar file or any other files that is not recognised by the OS. Wave is only as good as it's display...

                          this forum is n8 vs jet2,wave,galaxy beam. guys i advice you if you want good resolution,camera,music lover go to samsung mobile phone and sonyericsson, if you want slow,hangup go to nokia. i ask u all? n8 touchscreen responsive or not? x6,n97,n900 very poor unresponsive touchscreen freeze. the best smartphone touchscreen samsung,htc,iphone,sonyericsson. i suggest nokia need to improve speaker phone,processor,LCD,camera not good at night like x6,n97, change OS.

                            Anonymous, 06 Aug 2010470 euros is the price for a mid range phone ?? you should say that it is a mid range phone... moreDepend on what u need mate. N8 is a media centric phone. There are a lotta ppl who want a camera like that on their cellphone.

                            But if u look for fluid OS animations and eyecandy, look somewhere else or wait for MeeGo

                                I am looking forward to MeeGo.. coz i am a nokia person from ma very 1st phone which was nokia n70.

                                Symbian is already being pushed back to the midsection coz nokia realised that flagships are not gonna shine anymore on symbian.. (read nokia n97.. Lol)

                                By the time nokia releases n9, this would be another camera phone with a big sensor. But i am still with nokia, just dont approve the symbian treatment they gave Nokia n8. Else its one awesome device. Should have gone symbian 3 for something more budget oriented like c6 and left something so beautiful to MeeGo..

                                Or maybe it aint ready yet.. I dont think nokia would release official update for MeeGo in n8. But i do pray that custom ROMs surface soon enuff..

                                Cheers Nokia.. I still believe u got game.. :)

                                    Ryan do you type your comments blindly??? I just said im a nokia fanboy but not a blind one! And i said i have an e90! Why the hell do you think i have an iphone?? I hate that overpriced piece of shit that cant multitask jack and needs a $2 bumper case to a make a $800 phone to make a call properly! Dude your weird! I want the N8 as much as any nokia enthusiast and i agree wit you, the N8 is going to be one hell of a device but maybe not as revolutionary and epic as the N95۔‎1(god i love that phone till to date) but still going to be one cracker of a device and im most likely going to get the N8.

                                      Dude i cant beleive your calling symbian crap, itz the best multitasking platform for years!!! N97 was just a 5800 with a 32gb storage and a larger screen, physical keyboard and 5 megapixel camera and nokia made all these improvements and forgot about the processor and . Look in gsmarenas review for 5800 and n97 and you shall see why 5800 would be predicted a success while n97 would be predicted as a failure. Its because 5800 was cheap and people would forgive many of its mistakes since nokia had rentered the touchscreen area after a long time but they used the same interface with the n97 with making any updates to it and since n97 was highly expensive and with such problems people dint like it. im a nokia fanboy and Ive been using an e90 for the last 2 years and its processor and ram specs are similar to a n95 8gb and my phone has never crashed on me once! I listen music, run an anti virus in the background all the time, type in quickoffice continuosly while surfing the net and it never slows down. Oh and i also skype regularly at the same time. Not a single lag or pause! Thats what you call symbian multitasking!


                                      oh and to ALUI i really would like to see the difference of viewing the android market from an android phone. I just hope the difference of viewing the android market with an android phone with a Super amoled screen (I9000 galaxy s or wave) is not the difference your talking about! cheers!
