Applications on Symbian can do anything!

Here comes "Cover Flow" to Symbian ^1 devices (like in iPhone or Symbian^3)

Its great and works smooth. I am using trial version right now.

Another great application is Shake control to change music with shake. Its freeware!

          Maywell, 23 Jul 2010the processor is too slow... many better phones are out there...Symbian doesn't need a 1Ghz processor to make it run smooth. And with the GPU it will run perfectly!

So I'm currently happy with 3 homescreens. BTW I think third party applications can bring more homescreens.

                    in my country i witness nokie lost his crown to his rivals blackberry and china made phones.
                    i think nokie is too slow to realize what most users want.
                    even n8 need 6 months (maybe more) since 1st announcement before launched to market.
                    in my country, nokie isnt a market leader anymore, he's only the 3rd player.
                    people who move too slow surey will left behind, thats nokie

                              You can place 4 shortcuts (or applications) on per widget and there are 6 widget per homescreen on N8. That means you can use maximum 4x6x3= 72 icons (or shortcut) on homepages.. While in other OS you can only use few shortcuts per homescreen.. Btw less homescreen means faster navigation..

                                  As per a chinese site, N9 will have a dual core processor named cortex A9 clocked at the speed of 1GHz, 64 GB internal memory , Same N8 12Mp Camera but with dual LED Flash, Design will match with N900 as the design of N97 mini matches with C6. it will Run Meego.
                                  But in my personal opinion N9 will not be useful for the mobile enthusiastic as the Nokia Meamo based N900 was in the very Beginig and still most N900 users don't know that what they have in their Pocket. So Nokia N8 will Be the Best Choice even the N9 comes with the same Specification because the limitation of applications.

                                  Moreover N9 may be announced in Sep. 2010 and will be available in 2Q of the 2011. But who knows that Nokia will really Follow this time period or NOT!!!

                                    Anonymous, 23 Jul 2010There is nothing wrong for you to want more home screen. My point is. Not everyone are like... moreexactly...
                                    many home screens would create confusion & make phone slow...

                                    3 is good..

                                    also nokia can provide options to increase screens if they wish....to keep all users satisfied acc to their needs :-)

                                      No problem! I love N8, we love N8. We give opinions to make N8 better. Because the manufacture never know all user, some people like, other no.

On Symbian ^3, widgets are professionally placed, you can arrange them, can have as many as 6 at a time so three home screens are more than enough.
