[deleted post]I think it will.. Here in India we buy phone for full price, no contract here, no company offers it anyway .. Thats the main reason, you will barely see smartphones here..
BTW its not twitter or facebook lol

Anonymous, 15 Jul 2010in case you haven't been following, this is the first phone with the new symbian. so many peop... moreI understand that Nokia want to give the best to their user.
But i really hope that N8 will be released in Singapore latest by mid October 2010.
My contract renewal date is around mid August 2010.
The most i can extend my contract renewal to early November 2010.
If i missed the date, i will lost my renewal discount (around SGD200) and gift voucher of (around SGD100).
To me, its too much to sacrifice.
I will be forced to take up another alternative phone by then.
I think there might be plenty of N8 fans will suffer the same problem if Nokia delay the release date to a too far date.

Thanks. You posted so much bullshit about Nokia I had to come out of retirement and correct you.
Nokia, in its entire history, has made less "duds" than any other brand. Which is especially impressing given the fact they outsell all of the alternatives you mention. Combined.
They had 2 or 3 not so good devices, and currently the build quality is top notch again.
Whereas Samsung, even their 500$ galaxy s looks and feels like a cheap piece of crap. A flashless cheap piece of crap that is.

Indeed it is annoying if the headphone unplugged accidentally at places mentioned by you.
But i agreed with PGQP that it is not an issue (deal breaker) to many.
It is indeed a good suggestion and i believe Nokia will be more willing to implement it for their future devices if they see fit.
Best of luck for your application searching.
Cheers! :)

This is a suggestion.
You can suggest this to Nokia and they might consider it and maybe will make it available."
-------------------
Sorry, but you are wrong.
1-there are mobile phones on the market that auto-pause the music. my dead sonyericsson did it, and so does my sister's iphone (there should be others that do it as well...)
2-how can you say that this is not a real issue? Maybe not for you, but if you search the web you'll find a lot of things about people annoyed about it and trying to find a solution. Nokia advertises the phone as a music player (in my case, nokia n86, it even has dedicated music controls on the upper slide).so i bought the phone to do calls, sms, photo, video, mail, and listening to MUSIC.
Put yourself in a situation like this:
-go to a place where there is not supposed to be loud noise (library, at work, at home when late at night and everybody is sleeping, etc etc etc)
-use your headphones and listen to music. Eventually if you accidentally unplug them, and the sound starts to be played loud from the phone speakers leaving you in an embarrassing situation, then you'll understand why it is a REAL ISSUE.
-the same applies if you are using Bluetooth stereo headphones, battery dies, and the sound played loud on the speakers....
Just imagine the pain in the ass.
I found information about enabling this on nokia s60v5 and on n900, but no info how to do on n86. ( if anybody knows how to do it, I'd appreciate the help. =)
When my friends buy some phone, they always show me the functions (it has a camera, it has mail, it has mp3 player, it has blah blah bla) but in real life, they actually end up never using them. Instead buy an iPod, digital camera, ...
I don't like to be with my pockets full of gadgets, so if I paid premium price for a device that's supposed to "do it all", what's the point of spending another 200€ on an iPod? All just because of a minor software related ISSUE that could easily be solved with software update?
I don't buy phones to show them off, I buy them to use all the features they have. And the features that phones have, should be optimized in order to not annoy users.
Is it really that hard to do this?
When headphones are disconnected (bluetooth or 3.5 jack) it could pop up a dialog to just ask
"Do you want to play through the speakers now?" which the options: Yes/No/Always/Never.
SIMPLE ISN'T IT?
Don't know how to do it, but if anyone of you knows how to contact nokia about this to suggest auto-pause so "they might consider it and maybe will make it available." (in new phones, or as software update to existing models)
I just wanted to know if anyone has info if:
1- n8 will have auto pause?
2- is there any way to enable this on n86?
(sorry if there is any misspelling.hope you all understand that English is not my native language so little mistakes might have happened)

So have patience, it'll be worth it. Also, nokia released a statements saying they want to make sure they give the customers wat they want, and to remove all bugs/features that customers didn't like of the previous symbian. unlike apple, nokia confesses to a bad product, fixes it as best as possible and as soon as possible. so give them credit for standing up and backing thier products up 100%
