    My email account was already their i just added name and password never seen that in nokia and cause used my old sim card it signed me straight into Ovi ..This begs a question to how much the carriers really know abouit you,i stuck the same o2 card into my 6630 and went to o2 site to register that number and up come a picture of a 6630 saying this is your fone.How do they know its a 6630 unless they have hold of my imei number?

    Someone asked about facebook today but cant help them cause dont use it ..Also has anyone got time machine ,france24 or google app on their N8 ive tried but cant so it may not be written for n8 yet or its me.

        [deleted post]Watch your mouth and I'll watch mine, otherwise I will go as low as it takes!

        This page is not for N8 Praise but for opinions so if you people can't take my opinions then dont read! I don't get offended by anything you lot say as they are only words and you don't know me.

        I have owned the phone so have a right to voice my opinion.

        The phone is prob Nokia's best -agreed (when it works), but technology has moved on now so Nokia's best is not up to the standards of the competition -MY OPINION.

        I know I annoy the tunnel visioned die hard Nokia fanboys in here but that actually entertains me now!

            The Nokia N8 is really an amazing mobile from Nokia,an had no problems at all,Speakers are Brilliant an Video playback is Amazing,i have the Black one an now looking to buy the Blue one when its finally released as Nokia says the Blue on would be delayed abit,future updates can only make the N8 better value than the iPhone4,like to see how many N8s would be sold in the first month

                  anino, 29 Oct 2010dont compare it to galaxy just look up the hardware on both... morePlease.. make a little experiment yourself.

                  Take a Pentium III 800Mhz with 256Ram. And install Windows 7. Its fast? work fine? No.. dont you? (you can not install it, i know.. its for this example only)

                  Now, take the same PC and install Windows 95/98. Now? its fast? Yes.. no?

                  Now, take the same PC and install Linux. SO? faster than W95/98.. NO?!

                  Conclusion: Its not everything about CPU power. The SO its the soul of everything. So, if you want compare, dont only look the CPU power. Look the SO installed. In this case.. Symbian is Lighter than Android and Ios. period!

                  For last thing.. Make a last Test..

                  Get 2 Pc. Same CPU, one with a NVIDIA 9800GTX and the another one, with on-board video card. Try some Heavy games.. You have any difference? A LOT, don you?

                  If you put lower CPU in the NVIDIA machine??? WOW ! it gonna be still faster than another one!! WHY?!?!

                  Cos in gaming and everything related to GRAPHICS its MORE IMPORTANT the GPU than the CPU.

                  If you don't believe, search in Youtube for Videos of N8 vs IPH4 in GAMING (not browser or UI). And tell me if you see real difference..

                  Cheers !

                  PS: Sorry for my English :D

                      Until now I am satisfied with my N82, that's why I'm so sure that I'm gonna love N8 very much by thinking that N8 will give me much more than N82 could give.

                        Right, Spanky and Stuntman, we shouldn't take that disturbances seriously and didn't give us anything good at all...just let it go. Now is the time for us to search what we're looking for by entering this forum. Aiming for something...not for nothing.

                              Have use nokia for so long with various model. Have always satisfied with nokia quality and reliability. Im really impressed with n8 and cant wait to buy. What really funny is in this forum and other forum, there will always some jackass that start to purposely create trouble in forum telling the phone is bad n so on. When u go to other forum, the same thing happen. In short the ppl that always gv bad review of a phone is a person that cant get himself a nice phone like n8, galaxy s, wave n etc, so he/she is so jealous of others having one, so start to throw bad comment. Grow up whoever u r, n work to find enough money to buy ur own nice decent phone. Gud luck..haha

                                    I would say there isn't even contest, N8 wins hands down.

                                      I am very much aware of the shortcomings of the current stock browser. Just use Opera. Also, the new browser coming with the update looks great =)
