      naveen , 01 Nov 2010hey friends i'm naveen .. i want to buy a new phone i can k... moren8 will be more than 20k for a few more months...it is selling pretty well in my home town(Shimla)..the C7 has also become available...it gives you more hardaware keys but compromises on the camera(not to worry about from what i have read in a few reviews)...but the gogd news for you is that there was atleast 1 retailer who was selling the C7 for 20k...only silver colour was available though...other retailers were asking 21k for it...so i would suggest you go for C7 if the limit on your budget can not be crossed..i bought an n8 for my brother as it loked just stellar in blue...
      Note: you should try to bargain for C7 to get it for 20k if it is being sold for more. It usually costs the retailers around 12k. So dont feel bad about it.

              The Nokia N8 smartphone, which began shipping Sept. 30, is the latest victim of a teardown by iFixit. The repair site's team went to work with its Torx screwdriver to offer a look inside Nokia's new flagship smartphone. In all, the iFixit team gave the N8 high marks. They were impressed with several design decisions, including Nokia's "creative" placement of the device's antennas (you may recall, creative antenna placement got Apple into trouble with the iPhone 4) and its EMI (electromagnetic interference) shields, which protect the phone's chips from interference. The N8's 12-megapixel camera, which Nokia paired with the type of flash normally found in a full-size camera, also impressed. Shipping unattached to a carrier, and so without the obligation of a service contract, the N8—which runs the new Symbian 3 OS—is priced at approximately $500. "Betting the farm on the success of the N8," iFixit reported on its site, "Nokia has packed this phone full of awesome features." (All photos are courtesy of iFixit.com.)

                                  CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)

                                  THIS MOBILE DEVICE MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

                                  Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

                                  The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the ear is 1.02 W/kg.

                                  Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product information at www.nokia.com.
                                  USA & Canada
                                  (FCC ID: PDNRM-596) Your mobile device is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA) and Industry Canada. These requirements set a SAR limit of 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported under this standard during product certification for use at the ear is 1.12 W/kg and when properly worn on the body is 0.85 W/kg. Information about this device model can be found at https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod/oet/cf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm by searching the equipment authorization system using FCC ID: PDNRM-596.
