Symbian is always slow but I know and I am sure Nokia isnt going to do same mistake again ! 680mhz is enough for symbian and u forgot therez a powerful brodcom gpu ! Symbian is the most matured os and best multitasking ! Just bcz u hate symbian doesnt mean itz a joke !

Xenon flash is to "good" and bright for taking pictures of your friens in the bar, and who really needs 12 MP? 1200 mAh battery is definetly to small, but small batteries have always been one of Nokias biggest problems.
            Nokia is beginning to have the same problems as SonyEricsson, they are to slow and their phones are outdated already even before they reach their first customer, X10 is a joke and N8 seems to be an even bigger joke.

Of course, it is a bit geeky since very little add-on software existed when it was launched. Users had to wait and search it on Nokia forums. Its spread in North America was also limited due to the phone having 1700 / 2100 3G when the majority operators use 850/1900. Only T-Mobile subscribes could use it.

Nokia makes phones for geeks ie user interface is unimportant but capability is important. Android/iphone make phones for general user. They keep user interface in mind. Eg they dont mind having 5 mp camera instead 12 mp as long as users experince is good. For them user experience is important than capability. And since general users are outnumber geeks heavily, nokia lags behind androids & iphones & samsungs. Take example of n900 which was a failure as it was made for geeks. Lets see how n8 fares

                          The N8 is the best-looking smartphone I've seen (especially in blue or orange). The 12-Megapixel camera (with dual Xenon flash!), totally radioed-up -- including FM transmitter and Flash support really make it the all-in-one device I've been waiting for...for years. No, it's not Android. Which, to me, means you're not supplying your user data to Google (seems a bit Orwellian to me, anyway). Complain about Symbian all you want; but capabilities will always trump font style, icons, menus or any of the cosmetic complaints that I hear about Symbian.

                            I've heard/read lots of complaints from people who don't know how to manage a smartphone. It sucks.

Unless you'r gonna tell me your waves flash is powered by an external cell, i put it to you that at 2m, what you get is a horrible video filled with red green blue artifacts(if the flash were a good one) while at 5m, its completely useless. If your waves flash was that good, samsung would have ventured into the street lightening market. Not even dual led can give you a good video at 5m.

                                    native skype software has no video calling for symbian. until recently skype video calls could be placed via fring, but skype recently shutdown fring's access to the network due to some conflict of interests. not sure if this is temporary or not.

                                        That youtube vid demonstrating the browser looks ok. Finally it looks like they got the browser right. Still a bit slow, but maybe because of the flash. At least it looks like you can actually use the browser now though.
