Dear all I'm a regular reader in this forum.and almost everyday i used to come here cuz i simply love this site.

First of all I'm a fashion designer.so I'm not a technical person.now I'm using nokia e61i and i had nokia e90 which i broke by myself once a very midnight cuz my girl friend annoyed me badly.however 1 month back i buy nokia 5233 and just btd10700 that means only 160usd.ok my plan had to buy nokia n8 but due to delay iv to choose another option as my 2nd handset as 5233 and this is my first touch screen phone.
Ok before i purchase i knew it very well that it does t even any office application no zip manager no adobe reader no gps even poor audio quality without hand s free.i don't even choose 5230 it has gps though.
ok i don't v proper idea about google os but i know about i phone.but from the very beginning i just hate it cuz price factor and limitation you all know such kind off issue.
Now why should i pick this 5233 cuz i know how to manage out now i v all those software quick office, adobe zip manager, win rar, oxford ,spb shell 3.7 which all are free.right Now my music player is open spb open, total recall open auto hello open, blacklist open, auto lock open, opera mini 5.1 with swype open.what I'm trying to tellin u guys this is nokia and there os, this what they can do.my ph not even hackl like my e61i

I ll buy n8 once price ll fallen cuz current local shop owner asking 65000bdt almost $950

last word nokia n8 ll be an unlimited possibilities.

    Everydays I am reading the comment for n8. Today, I tried the n8 in the store it has excellent feature but:
    1. It has bad touch screen compare with iPhone 4 and galaxy s
    2. The multi task is uncomfortable compare with other ( the touch response when closing the applications
    3. The number of applications is nothing compare with iPhone and android
    4. Os is outdated compare with the others
    5. Nokia massaging for email is lag with mail for exchange
    6. Slow interface compare with iPhone 4 ( galaxy s laging with you keep open alot of applications )
    7. Price is reasonable but in my opinion I will add some money to buy something butter than this
    8. The browser is terrible ( in my opinion it is most important feature in smart phone nowadays.

    This is my comments
    Thanks

        'say the analysts?' Stop believing the FUD, they are paid to misguide us...
        Its like audio cables and the cr@p they said about them, is 10000usd for 1 foot copper justified? No? Well, people with a diploma said they are worth the price. I for one don't buy it nor do I buy in the stories about Symbian dying. An efficient OS like that can only evolve...

            The Nokia N8 is expected to help increase shipments around the holiday season but Symbian is falling and Nokia needs to move with MeeGo, say the analysts.

              It is very fast and smooth. Galaxy S has worse lag than N8.

                    Engineer Man, 02 Nov 2010Now I think official release is supposed to 4th Nov. But No... moreAll the phone manufacturers are currently suffering component shortages. For example, manufacturers like HTC are actually releasing new phones with non-AMOLED screens exactly because there simply aren't enough to go around.

                    If you combine that to the fact that C7 and N8 are selling very well and have been sold out in many places, it is most likely impossible for Nokia to stick to their earlier release plans no matter how much they wanted to.

                      Tanvir_666, 02 Nov 2010Thanx ... Actually so many ppl r complaining in this blog t... moreThe Nokia N8 is the most feature packed device in the market right now! U guys are complaining about hardware and outdated software????? I thought the features made the device! I mean its easy to overlook some hardware and software shortcomings if the device has enough features to keep you entertained! Dont get caught up in all of the OS bullshit! Because that can be changed without even buying a new device nowadays so can software shortcomings! So that leaves the hardware - i wont miss a 1GHz processor with 512MB RAM and 2GB ROM if my 600MHz processor with 256MB RAM and 512MB ROM runs my games, videos, movies, music and browsing very comfortably! I personally prefer the balance of the Nokia N8!!

                        N8 owners, plz dont worry. The up-coming software will fix many bugs & issues.

                        N8 is really the technology. Cool device.
                        tnx

                                i am very pleased by my nokia n8 i have had it for a
                                month now i was one of the first to get it in norway
                                there has been no re start and no lag at all.it realy
                                is worth the price i payd for it it was 5000nok at my
                                local phone pusher he is a friend from my school days
                                back in the 80s.i find it realy funny that all the negative posts are made from the same person:(anonymus).and all the positive posts are made by:(name).if you are going to inform us abobout the n8 try to get a name first,the n8 is not progress it is realy a qantum leap when it comes to pocket computers.the symbian 3 is realy a new os but it is based in what we is familiar with so the nokia users will feel that they know it and it realy is impressive
                                what they have managed to come up with.
                                keep on rocking nokia.

                                  Nokia never ever expected to have a couple of fairly hi end devices which sell extremely well. The 'demand' list in Espoo is at a all time high. Of course we are all waiting for some device from Nokia. And the christmas orders are not even in full swing. While Nokia and the share holders make a killing, the man in the streed is left empty handed once again - literarely. How sad.

                                      Now I think official release is supposed to 4th Nov. But Nokia clearly print on their website that it is exclusivley available from them 1 week before the shops etc.

                                      I have already terminated my contract with my network provider & their isn't long before I'm without a network & a phone.

                                      I am not prepared to be paying for what I am not using either. On the website I find I am clearly being *Mislead* with false information. This is just not on at all. I should just aswell cancel my order.

                                      Then try something other than Nokia or just not bother at all. Besides as if the technology is really worth the price you pay for it. For it to be built you would be surprised how much you are being ripped off by any cooperate entity.

                                        RANT

                                        I ordered my C7 on Sat 30th from airtime shop. The device was advertised as In Stock. Next day free delivery.

                                        Today I check the stock status on the airtime shop for the device in the Mocha colour. I now have to wait 14 measly upsetting days.

                                        Nokia should not have released the device to make people wait forever to get it. They should have been prepared & ready ahead of time.

                                        Then they go & say in small print that they reserve the right to withdraw any advertised, device, plan etc.. etc.. information. Screams coorperate bullyish people who think they can mess people around.

                                        If Nokia continue to annoy & make people wait they should just as well teach Nokia a lesson. They need to plan out their strategies for market release a little better, they are already late with the N8 for example.

                                        But still things are not ready properly & availability is driving people up the wall. Sometimes the people have the power to demand what they have payed for that they get it on time & see to it that Nokia do not employ false advertising rubbish on their websites.
