You can say google & apple have a faster more intuitive & simple UI & web browser. But this is all Nokia need to accomplish with Symbian. This isn't going to be much of an issue because they cover all other bases. But Apple & Android - they lack major other general purpose feature & functions which a proper OS should not be without & if they have implemented some, how late have they done it when symbian has had functionality covered for ages.
Symbian has everything else covered & only lacks in eye candy but it does do everything else because it doesn't lack the capabilitites that the other two OS still lack. Android still isn't a proper OS, neither is Apple.
Take a good look at Symbians actual potential, bring all that to the forefront with a new simple Intuitive UI which is quick & fast with some slightly faster hardware - no problem when you see that Symbian right now is optimized for slower processing & less ram. Plus the faster NAND memory becoming available for despatch to OS & programs plus using that for the virtual pool i.e. Virtual memory running on quick memory.
I think a lot of Apple & Android devs should actually take a second look at how much they still lack when they are put side by side of symbian which is very well accomplished in all the neccesassy areas of functiional & as capable as a full OS.
Reply 2010-10-28 16:37 n5QF Engineer Man ReportIt's nice to see Nokia providing imrprovements & fixes so quickly. How about that! Beat that Android, Apple, BADA! ¬
So some Multi touch gestures such as side swiping & scrolling for home screen & browser have been rectified.
It won't be long before you see Nokia improving other web browser multi touch gestures like pinch to zoom may be add text reflow aswell.
Also this new imrprovement now makes web browser capable to use new types of input functions like the swype update that Nokia will soon make available.
It's so exciting. Some people have mentioned already in gsma's N8 forum that they are upset with N8. But it's a firs release & with many older Symbian phones this is common. It can only get better & better & even better than ever over S^1 S60V5.
For instance Nokia have already introduced some Internet radio features for some of their popular S40 devices.
Soon their will be some major upgrades to S^3's UI. They prob won't be that far away as we've been told. So their is no more eciting a time to purchase the S^3 devices. The |N8| will turn into an awesome device very soon with loads of pontential I bet.
Some people are more negative & aren't so hopeful for Symbian. Thety keep giving up & are sellnig their souls & they're privacy etc. etc.. to google, Android etc.. etc..
Just wait till S^3 evolves with the completely new UI architecture & when Meego becomes available. S^3/4 will be one awesome platform to own. QT makes everything app development wise so easy for any developer to resist no matter what they develope.

[deleted post]Hey Phil.
Nokia N8 is already available in the Philippine retail stores. Its price is PHP 23,999 in Mega or $ 556.04 Actually I'm a bit impressed with the starting price. I remember N97 32 GB started selling at PHP 30,000. It is a big difference. X3-02 and C3-01 Touch And Type Devices are also released. Nokia C7 to follow within a month or less.
There is contract with Smart Telecom. So sad Im using globe. Anyway go to cyberzone.

melissa, 28 Oct 2010i just got this new N8 and i really dont know how to use it... moreTry to read manual to learn things. Smartphones are like a mini-computer, a lot of things to learn.
On the right side, there is unlock slider. You can slide to unlock the phone.
Or you press front button or power key slightly to unlock the screen as well.
