hello, 09 Oct 2010iphone4 has GPU?It does, together with the CPU. A pretty good one, too.
N8s GPU is different from the CPU and is at least supposed to be more powerful than most integrated (just about every smartphone have integrated CPU/GPU combination) GPUs. This can sort of be confirmed by how well the N8 does against other top notch smartphones in benchmarks even if it has lower CPU frequency than the rest.

The battery is supposed to last at least for 3 years. Normally no sooner than 3 years N8 user does not need to change the battery. Besides, if you really want to change the battery, you can just use a T4 screw driver to open it and change it. It is not a FIXED battery like IPHONE 4.

The N8 supports AV-out from the 3,5mm jack it has plus the HDMI.
Hope that helps something.

Anonymous, 09 Oct 2010I was really gonna buy the phone until I saw the blog about... moreWhy would you need to change the battery?
The phone has a built in power cut off like in laptops and computers. Holding the power button 8s will cut of all power, equal to taking battery out.
If you need the battery replaced, Nokia Care will do that while you have warranty. After warranty you can get the battery out by opening two screws, but I'm not sure if that would void the warranty if you still havnt ran out of the 2 years by then.
I've personally never met anyone who would carry a spare battery with them, but I guess some people who travel alot might, but meh.

For people wondering whether to buy this not or insecure whether this will be a fail like N97, here are some real user thoughts. It's finnish (Finland has had this since last day of september) so you probably can't undertand it, but you can see the rated stars. 5 stars is naturally the max there.

And "Suosittelen" means "I recommend"
In case people want to see some other kind of "rankings" of this phone but comparing CPU frequencies.

0v0, 09 Oct 2010For those who already got the N8, Congrats.
and for those ... moreOverall the Symbian^3 is very good out of the box. No major flaws or bugs, the browser is pretty much the weakest link, so either deal with it or use opera mobile. A new browser written in Qt is coming later this year.
Overall it's smooth and fast, not much waiting to be done.
I'm very happy with my purchase and wouldn't trade if for any other smartphone out there, even if you gave me 3 of em (unless I was allowed to sell em and buy 3 more N8s :D)
