Correction, mine also shows purple-pink clock display.
At first I tought you guys mean standby "big clock" which is normal color, not the clock shown when you press menu button from the standby mode... A shame, hopefully Nokia can fix it :(

HELP NEEDED.....?
guys, while organising my menu icons accidently i moved my 'office' icon to root(main) menu. AS u all know, by default it stays under 'applications' menu.
So, is there any way i can move it to original place?
plzz, suggest me some easy and effective way either than forcing me to hard resetting kinda thing..
Thanx in advance!!!

Check out if your N8 has faulty display
1. use midnight silver theme -- make sure you have analouge screen saver clock -- make sure brightness is down ---flick lock switch -- when screen is locked press menu key to bring up the clock
2. using midnight silver theme -- download qt torch -- open it up -- the background will look a dark brown/purple -- keep your eyes on the two touch buttons at bottom of screen -- press torch button -- as screen gets brighter watch the two touch buttons go from a greyish purple to the black they are supposed to be as if by magic
3. there are many more methods of seeing it like watching the tron trailer and watching the blacks mix to a purple hue and many more
4. download the test image from symbianusers. blogspot adjust the display brightness to lowest. If it shows purple tint please let me know @ symbianusers. blogspot

I've had this device for 5 days now, and I must say it's brilliant piece of advanced technology cleverly incorporated into elegant hardware unit. Like someone said, it's not only the technology, it's how you use it.
Only software is somehow lagging behind, namely browser, writing and few GUI and OS glitches that can be hopefully fixed in future OS relases and firmware updates.
P.S No bad screen, no lockups, no abnormal freezes or hiccups whatsoever.
My N8 is Made in Finland.
Have a nice day!

If the left, you have a broken phone, if the right, don't worry.

1. Everything's still the same?
The interface on the N8 looks a lot like the one on the much older N97, which says a lot about the new OS. Not much has been done to make it slicker, or even look a bit different. We're all for nostalgia and all but not when it comes to UI design!
2. Feels clunky with too many menu options: There are still too many menus and sub menus to manage the options and settings in both the OS and within apps.
3. Handicapped Widgets: Widget size on the 3 home screens is limited, which not only reduces functionality, but also makes certain widgets a pain to use. Imagine catching up on ur twitter timeline and only and being able to read one tweet with every scroll.
4. Ovi store is sparse: Despite Nokia's best effort , the ovi store z far behind apple's app store and android's market.
5. Even nokia may drop symbian.
