      Anonymous, 02 Oct 2010i dont care of multitouch that much n i used it on my frien... moreOne finger zoom ? Yeah, that sounds awesome !! :D Only that other brands have already tried that and then dropped it for it was useless.

      What if it doesn't get froyo ?

      Ever heard about Flash support ? You know what, SE is the worst lot of Android anyway, you lot can't even cook up custom ROMs and will always be dependent for updates so Stop blowing that horn here.

      And Desire is a good phone, go and buy it or play with the one your friend owns. Why are you here if N8 doesn't concern you ? Its not going to kidnap you and probe you okay ?

        Someone mentioned something about androids ability to migrate to the newer versions via updates. Thats nice but you see, nokia has been doing updates with their phones for years now. My phone for instance with the updates gained nice additions like kinetic scrolling that works across everything on the phone, swipe to answer or reject a call, phone became faster and more responsive...just name a few. Nokia with QT now can migrate to newer versions altogether but they know that there are limitations to this. They would hence most likely design newer programs to work with the older version but would leave out certain aspects due to limitations. Symbian ^3 may never for this reason be called ^4 in the N8 but with updates may have the very same features as ^4. May just be called ^3v1.0.

        BTW, Wheez, you doing a great job with fighting off these guys. We are all here and we fully support you in every way. We may not be answering but we are here. Keep it up.

            Anonymous, 02 Oct 2010so do u recommend me e7 instead of this peter ?That's based on reviews on the web, not my experience with the device.

            you can't go wrong with either N8 or E7 as both are of good quality.

              Wheez, 02 Oct 2010This is tiresome fighting the Android crowd alone, but it's... moreI think there will always be some fanboyism. The worse you could do is respond to those posts. Best you can do is only respond to posts that seem serious. I think people who want to have serious discussions know which posts to take seriously.

                  New waver, 02 Oct 2010It also can't match X10 in lacking multitouch and no flash ... morei dont care of multitouch that much n i used it on my friends htc desire n u have to use ur 2 fingers

                  have u heard of one finger zoom application which SE is working on n i think that is way better than multitouch n much easier.

                  SE has not announced that x10 wont get froyo.....even if froyo doesnt comes to x10 so what??? i think x10 is still a much better device than nokia n8 now even with 1.6 OS n with 2.1 n hd video recording things will get better n better n remember xperia x10 was released in march n i think xperia x10 should not be compared with nokia n8 as nokia n8 is a symbian device n that is its biggest drawback

                          i would not say i was a nokia fan but more of an symbian fan buts thats more because thats is the os that i am used to but have to admit that other os are faster and maybe smoother than the n8 from what i have seen on demo's but the n8 is still for me because it has a 12 meg camera with a Xenon flash and i also like the hdmi output which will come in handy so for being a split second slower maybe on an app opening i still think it the best all rounder smart phone available

                            Moreover, I am yet to read a review that mentions such a thing (mostly I only read about people going ga-ga over it), not that I need reviews for it. :)

                            Btw checked out an N8 today ! Pretty darn nifty I should say !

                              Lets be straight here mate. SE has clearly mentioned that X10 won't be getting Froyo. It can't promise 16m colors and it doesn't support multitouch at a hardware level.

                              http://blogs.sonyericsson.com/products/2010/09/28/sony-ericsson-liveview%E2%84%A2/

                              Go to that link and read the comments of disgruntled SE customers regretting buying that thing for SE promised things that never got delivered.

                              So why would anyone buy it now ?
