you cannot play video & play game via HD... more"but you can play on a TV, iPhone 4 has a TV output. BTW using a HDMI port to transfer 320x640 resolution images, isn't a waste?"
-To view 720p video and 12MP pictures.. Normal TV outs doesn't support HD viewing..
"Yes you can, there are cheap FM transmitters for iPhones or 3.5mm output jack for any phone."
-Doesn't Apple have an iAccessory for that?? Inbuilt transmitter is 10times better than an external cheap one..
"iPhone 4 has a LED camera flash which is better than the N8 xenon flash(check on the internet)."
-Comparison of LED and Xenon flash: Xenon are still better than LED in any condition..

"let me know when you need more than 16/32GB memory on a phone..."
-Since when did the view changed?? The last time I remember when Apple launched 32GB version, the view was, we have 32GB of storage.. Now that somebody else have capability more than that, the tone changed??
""No USB OTG.."
who cares? I did not see a USB card in ages."
-Lot of us still do.. We even use of phones as USB devices to move data..
""No free GSP navigation as Ovi Map.. (thanks for Ovi map, it help a lot during my travelling for holiday trip)"
-just wait for your phone bill at the end of the month, and you'll see how free it is. in "Offline" mode practically you cannot find even the address on the street you are. So FYI, you were using ovi maps in "online" mode.
BTW, there are free navigation apps for iOS and Android, one is called Google maps:).
And even you pay when you are abroad, with the new Google maps 5.0 using vectors you use very little data. It might cost you less than a cup of coffie(2 Euro/Mb in my case)."
-You know that Maps can be downloaded via WiFi so that you dont have to get charged on the mobile network?? The google maps on the iPhone and Android does it the same way.. I have used Nokia Maps and it doesn't give a huge bill at the end of the month..

I remember very interesting comment made by Anssi Vanjoki, former executive VP at Nokia.
Nokia chose to copy the iPhone, especially APPLE's enormously popular and patented design and user interface. As Anssi Vanjoki, Nokia’s Executive Vice President and General Manager of Multimedia, stated at Nokia’s GoPlay event in 2007 when asked about the similarities of Nokia’s new offerings to the already released iPhone: ” If there is something good in the world, we copy with pride.
Even NOKIA admited that they like to copy iPhone , you guys NOKIA fanboys , time to keep quite and rewrite all your sentences.

Nokia to cut about 800 jobs in Finland
HELSINKI (Reuters) - Nokia, the world's biggest cellphone maker by volume, said on Tuesday it planned to cut about 800 jobs in its home Finnish market.
The company said in a statement it concluded negotiations with employee representatives on the planned reductions, which it plans to start putting into effect in January.
Nokia plans to offer severance packages worth 5-15 months of regular salary but hopes some of the employees affected will be relocated elsewhere in the company, it said.
Nokia announced 1,800 job cuts worldwide in October.

"But Symbian users don't go to find a Wi-Fi spot to make a video call... They just need the network part.."
and after they click "Agree" on one of the up to three pop-us, they, wait... and wait.... and wait...
"3 home screens are more than enough for most people.. 7 homescreens is too much in my opinion.. 4 or 5 at max.."
My car goes up to 250Km/h, however the speed limit on the Dutch highway is 120Km/h. But driving in Germany at 250Km/h is quite nice:) So is with the home screens, is quite nice to have 7 of them when you need them.
"the lowest screen resolution and the slowest processors on the market."
-What about the lower and mid budget android phones having 360X480 resolution and 528MHz processors?? "
Some examples of current selling Android phones with those features, please! I will not mind if they cost under 100 USD, but I will mind if they would cost more than 400.
"Moreover slowest processor doesn't mean slow performance.. It depends on the efficiency of the OS too.."
Just tell this to someone who tries to load the endgadget page on his/her Nokia, or wanting to have Flash 10.1.

Symbian is dump by it alliance one by one.
Only NOKIA has no choice to take it as take it as spoiled and problem child.
NOKIA is now trying to discipline Symbian in an attempt to get investor attention.
They said it is new Symbian ,till today , still need to wait update..
I can't wait to see NOKIA dumps Symbian one day.
You guys says NOKIA has no problem at all , but can anyone explain the below news:
Nokia increases layoffs to 2600
Finnish firm Nokia has confirmed a further 800 job cuts, which will occur in addition to the already announced 1800, in its native Finland operations
Finnish mobile giant Nokia has announced plans to cut 2600 jobs (in total) in its native Finland in preparation for life after Symbian OS.
There has been no shortage of criticism for the world's most popular mobile company in recent months, with missed deadlines, underwhelming devices and technical faults all adding to the woe of their diminishing global impact, but this latest announcement seems to confirm what many analysts feared: Nokia is starting to feel the pinch of being left behind in the smartphone race.
Without its feature phone market-share the Finns are already a world behind Apple and Google, and the latest round of criticism levelled at Symbian in the wake of the Nokia N8 launch seems to have finally resonated the message that consumers aren't going to pay premiums for devices based upon the tired OS.
Do these latest cuts represent a fall from grace for one of the oldest and most respected mobile manufacturers or do they simply indicate a willingness to evolve in the most rapidly evolving of technological markets?
