Hi All,
I have always been a Nokia fan and currently own a Nokia N95 8GB. For me, this is one of the best phones I have owned.
The 5MP camera yields excellent results.
I like the menu and the way the phone operates.
The thing I dont like about it though is the weight, bulkiness and small buttons.
What I dont like about it is the load up and loading times of some of the apps and games that i downloaded from the Ovi store.
My wife bought an Iphone 3G, 6 months ago, and I have fallen in love with that phone. I love the touchscreen, multi-threaded chat feature and the funky apps and motion control on it.
I am due for an handset upgrade soon and was keen on the Iphone 3GS but now with this NOKIA N8 I have decided that I will very SERIOUSLY consider sticking with Nokia.
I have read 30 pages of all your posts and can see a trend of concerns, so I have decided that I will wait unil it is released and keep an eye out on this forum to get people's first experiences before I make a firm decision.
Thank you all for your comments and feedback.
I look forward to hearing more.

About the magnifying glass i meant the part were you press and hold over picture and this circular bubble appears magnifying the section..may be it was used in other apps since i last had 5800 which seems like years ago...The 5800 was not only a breathe of fresh air and decent but the price was really cheap..
