what i learned you are fanboy and gay also

I also bought one year ago my first iphone (still have it) and the same day i was called fanboy and gay and that kind of stuff and the same has been the whole year (not in real life only forums)

Thats why i really has started to hate nokia, its weird i really dont have anything bad to say their phone when i used them. But now i really *censored* hate the whole nokia and all because applehaters made that.

I think so many apple users think like me. I think nokiafans even dont know how much hurt they make to nokia brand.

By the way i'm from finland where's nokia came and now i *censored* hate everything what they do and i can say for sure i'm not only one, and its not phones i hate, i hate nokiausers, i know all of them arent samekind

i'v seen here this guy called "wheez", i see he is those good nokia fans, which can see also something else than nokia.

By they what is the difference with applehater and nokia hater?

Nokia haters says bad things about nokia's phone

Apple haters says bad things about apple users

you nokiafans really should read what i wrote and think it

                I can't figure really anything I'd wanna change in Symbian^3, it's by far the best Symbian till now and by a big jump.

                I would not take Android or iOS instead, myself. I don't really like Maemo either on the N900.

                    I really loved Nokia in the past and really am wishing to love this phone. The specs are great and having a camera of such magnitude would be a blessing but the OS just doesn't live up to today's competition. I wish this phone would have been bundled with the MeeGo OS. Symbian is not the future of Nokia and they have stated that MeeGo will be the choose for top smart phones. Buying a symbian phone will only hurt consumers when no one is willing to create top quality apps for it. Until Nokia gets it right I guess I'll be staying with my iPhone 4. I am not an Apple fanboy (this is my first iphone) but Nokia should have gone with MeeGo on N8.

                          friday, 17 Sep 2010I think its something to do with that very old ARM11 model ... moreThat's well possible. But it's still not necessarily about ARM 11 being bad. It could be that the games have not been optimized for ARM 11, but possibly for that ARM Cortex 8 or whatever it is.

                          I've seen the same thing on games I've beta tested. Specswise as good components, be it gfx card or CPU, run the game very differently, just cos it was optimized better for the other. All Points Bulletin-game for example ran shitloads better with systems that had nVidia than systems that had ATI.

                            N8 at does not have qwerty on portraid mode by default. I'm not sure if u can turn it on somehow, but at least its off then by default. Probably when Swype comes, this can be resolved at least.

                              I watched hero of sparta game performance with N8, iphone 3g, 3gs and 4 and noticed iphone 3g performance is very similar than N8, its not smooth at all.

                              Then i watched those phones specs and learned that 3g is only iphone which uses that old ARM11 too.

                                  Does any one know whether the keyboard is shown in both portrait and landscape modes? Some touchscreen telephones do not display the keyboard in portrait mode.

They arn't normal screws either (although they can be opened with a "normal" screwdriver of a certain size), but since they are special screws with no special screwdriver, it's certainly preinstalled.

                                      One of the items included in the N* package is the battery. What I do not know is if it is already installed or the owner has to install it. If the owner has to install it, then there cannot be a loss of warranty for removing it. If it comes pre-installed, then I can see and issue if the owner removes it.

                                        guest, 17 Sep 2010"First, why would you need to remove the battery yours... moreThere are idiots cheering for each phone, goes for Nokia and iPhones :D

                                        As long as the phone has a capability of doing a full power cut off from the power button (like in computers and laptops), it's fine. Most are complaining about the nonremovable battery cos they did that when the phone crashed. Earlier Nokias havnt had that full power cut off function cos of the removable battery.

                                        Capacitive screens have their pros and cons. They are extremely sensitive in ideal conditions, thus very nice, but not usable with ie. gloves on or with normal stylus (the capacitive stylus at least for N8 has quite a big tip, so not as precise as a normal stylus, usually).

                                        Pinch to zoom, well, it's a nice thing, having more features is never a bad thing. I probably wouldn't have minded as long as it would've been implemented some other way. Like the "volume" hardware buttons could be pretty nicely used for zooming in and out. I'm quite split around pinch to zoom myself, it's handy, but somehow I don't really like it. Maybe it's just me, but the gesture is somewhat "hard" or unnatural to do.
