On the other hand, it makes perfect sense to have a phone on you and that some pictures

                  I'm not surprised to hear the N8 is one the top selling phones. It's a very well built phone with lots of features and performs very well. It's biggest problem has been negative reviews from pro Android writers who don't even try it out before writing it off. Well done Nokia.

                      the sales figure could have been better.it should be around 8 million.
                      As it is a best phone in market.
                      But still encouraging.

                                    In my opinion it is the 1st wonder of mobile phone and truly it is who own n8.so just remind of u what feaure it has-
                                    An overall good handset especially incredibilly best camera(beating point and shoot camera like nikon l22,l21,kodak c143,c183,c180,sony dsc w300,310,290.etc)and even giving tough competition to prosumer and dslr and why should not because damain dinning and its team has done lots of hardwork to produce best cameraphone.
                                    Check these link which r as follow.

                                    2)having first phone with hdmi port and dolby digital surround 5.1 channel u can watch ur movies,photos in full Hd view and in 16:9 and in even 24:1 pixel aspect ratio.so every common man who has hdmi tv and hometheatre r buying this wonderful phone.

                                    3)it is the first phone having D Graphics Broadcom BCM2727
                                    GPU with HW Accelerator with OpenGL-ES 2.0 support in short it has 3D graphics card just like in ur pc.it is a boon for hardcore gamers who want games with exceptional quality.now there are more than xbox like 20hd games available at ovi store and r still counting.its pleasure to play these games.

                                    Having 1/1.83"camera sensor even greater than digital camera sensor.this sensor helps to have superior image to be capture from camera.

Doesn't matter if its the only phone apple makes, its not like some iphones cost 200 while other Iphones cost 500. Same with Galaxy S, its impressive because it sold so many in such a short amount of time and its a higher end mobile device. 14 million and 10 million would be much less impressive if the device cost only 200, however this is not the case.
