    [deleted post]oh really??

    India has got 3G now.. So, there is chance of using mobile internet.. Also, there is always a way of setting up Wi-Fi to connect to broadband internet which is cheap in India.. So they can use mobile internet whenever they want to..

    Your comment of needing internet to enjoy iPhone make me think iPhone is more of a internet tablet than a phone.. The added unavailability of standard features well document on the iphonefever blog..

          Anonymous, 03 Jan 2011Where are you getting Q3 2011? From the articles I read it ... moreNokia and Symbian had released an official roadmap for the year 2011 few months back.. The roadmap contained 50 enhancements... From new UI for the SymbianOS to be launched in Q2 2011 to dual-processor phones in Q3 2011.

          Nokia releasing dual-core processor based devices instead of 1GHz processor is because dual-core processor with lower frequency has better performance than 1GHz processor and because the dual processors will be sharing the workload, each processor's load will be less resulting in lower consumption and better power management...

                  End of iPhone, 02 Jan 2011You are wrong. You are mixing facts with predictions. As a ... moreObviously you have trouble with the written English language. The article clearly states Iphone outsells N8 6 to 1 IN EUROPE. So you believe that Nokia sold 4 million units of N8 in just EUROPE alone? Please, go back and read the article after you've passed 5th grade reading, next you'll probably complain that its not fair to compare the Iphone 4(1 device) to the Nokia N8(1 device) and Morgan Stanley should've taken in accounts of C7 and C6-01 devices too.. haha

                    [deleted post]Where are you getting Q3 2011? From the articles I read it was projected Q4 2011 or Q1 2010. Knowing Nokia though, thats pretty late considering most companies will have Dual core Tegra 2 devices out Q1 of 2011. Unless you're saying the recent presentation by Gunther Kottzieper on December 14th 2010 in Beijing have been updated? Care to provide links with updated information suggesting they moved up projections ahead one quarter? I find this hard to believe as they're having trouble launching the E7.

                            History is the evidence of this-
                            nokia 6600 was able to install app,games,send mms,has 1mp camera in 2004.
                            apple uses all these technique in iphone3,iphone4 after 5 years we all know first iphone was a hell.
                            nokia 7710 touchscreen released in 2004 and iphone released in 2008 after 4yrs.
                            Nokia 7750 first camera phone in 2002 and iphone in 2008 after 6yrs.There r lots of examples.
                            So apple just copy and paste technology from nokia.
                            Apple just sucks.

                                  It was predicted that iPhone sell will be 15-16 million this Qt and N8 will sell 1 to 8. That article suggested that based on his survey in 5 European countries N8 is selling better and it will be 1 to 6 iPhones. Now, with 4 million N8 it must be 24 million which cannot be correct. If we assume N8 took the share in expense of iPhone we can see that only 12-13 iPhones are sold which is a disappointment for all iPhone fanboys.

                                        have you even used symbianOS on N8 yet cause 680 with ARM11 w/256RAM and 512ROM runs smooth
