              Hi friends..i have the hongkong version and had just recieved the update notification....via pc companion...1 hour before ...i updated it and my gosh the themes look great and so glassy...gallery layout has changed,many minor things are tweaked,xloud is amazing..it boosts the bass and treble of the sound along with volume and pinch to zoom overview has floating widgets which can be animated furthur by shaking your device.lockscreen sound changed,new lock animation,display quality amazing...camera zoom function and many tweaks...i love the update....and yeah the bootup time after the update is only some 26 secs....

                                avi, 05 Aug 2011I too used N8 and now am using SGSII...so plz don't atleast... moresymbian loosing market share day by day.my brother have a c7,it is good but not better than android at all.the first day it got stuck on ovi map and started to restart,always lag when opening folders. then i re flashed it using some custom firmware,now it work smoother but restarts sometimes.i think symbian never going to be a perfect OS.Nokia should concentrate on w7.
