        Sam, 06 Feb 2011what I'm really looking forward to is the Symbian^4 update,... morelol..I don't understand you people. The iphone give you less, everyone is happy, but when nokia give you more..everyone complains..there are two things I see that brings noika down..first is their app store, second is their processor, well let me add another storage space, but storage space is minor to compare with the speed on their top line phones. All of their top line phones only push at least 600-680Ghz..whiles every other phones like htc, moto, sam, and of course the iphone pushing 1Ghz or better. I believe if Nokia step up their processing speed, the phone can feel fast and smooth than sluggish, lifeless, slow and most of all boring.

            At this time, the upgrade has not been released for the N8, at least with the OTA server. Let's check if it's available with the software updater

                  in Brazil have only n8, nothing of the other models with symbian 3. Nokia is in ages with "comming soon" on their website, and not even disclose date. Apparently Nokia is happy only with the market out there, since here Nokia does not have any respect for possible customers. Lucky of your out there and luck in here for androids and the iPhone, which is growing every day in our country.

                  yes , translate by google!!! hehehe

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

How hard or should i say easy is it to load another os to the N900? Where did you get the os's from. I know that one can get the meego os from the site, but gingerbread? Another thing is that on the meego site i see that it is not as simple unless you are clued up in that type of thing? Is there an easy way or am i just lacking the knowhow? I want to know how cos when i get that N9 i want to probably do that just to mess around abit. Im sure that the N9 would have that ability to dual boot but i dont want to brick it! Maybe i should get the N900 just to play around with that 1st!?
