I don't get it why there are so many of you ignorant and angry fools bashing this phone (or any other phone, brand, etc) Let's take few examples:
1: CPU: 680 MHz ARM11 and 256 MB RAM:- some OSs are not hungry for that crunching power of 1+GHz CPU and don't use as much RAM, therefore Nokia can afford to use a previews generation of CPU with lower clock speeds, because it can handle the OS good enough, it does not drain battery like crazy, and it doesn't get super HOT(i had problems with Moto Milestone(Droid) doing same things as my HTC Hero, the droid getting too hot in most common tasks like web browsing, even browsing the Market and installing apps).
2: Display Resolution of 360*640 on a 3.5 inch screen is perfectly fine, remember the iPhone's res and screen size, it didn't seem to bother anyone, and the N8's is even higher. I have a PSP with 480*272 resolution and is decent enough to watch a movie/cartoon on it.
3: Symbian^3 is a new OS, redesigned functionality wise. Of course, the UI resembles S60v5 a lot, but as far as i've seen it runs much smoother, and they've improve it a lot since it was first demoed.
4: Camera is very important for some people, after all, for a phone the most common uses are: making calls, texting/email, taking pictures/videos and web browsing --which are very well implemented on the N8. Other features like gaming appeal more to a niche segment of the market, and the phone also manages to run a few up to date cross platform titles.
I know there are phones with a lot more power under the hood, but you can't accomplish a lot more with that extra grunt.
Please excuse me if i made any language mistakes, i'm from Romania.
Cheers!

If it's not too much trouble do you mind posting the link of your source? I'd like to see it too... it is a bit worrying if it does this. Thanks in advance.

Go troll somewhere else. Symbian 3^ and the future 4^ are something new. I believe if Nokia name this OS anything unlike the word symbian none would say all those bad things, for an unreleased OS...

The Nokia N8 has this checkerboard effect during pinch zoom in and out while you web browse. This is really worrying me as I really wanted the N8, but now I am having to reconsider my decision of whether to buy it or not.

I bet nokia developers are more intelligent than you. maybe you can make your own mobile company and make phones everyday and announce them everyday.
Maybe that'll make you happy
