          Dear friends,

          I strongly suggest all of you followings..

          1) Install Belle CFW with Hacked ROM
          2) Use Free i-SMS for conversation type SMS instead of default software
          3) Use Opera mini (not opera mobile which is laggy) instead of default browser
          4) Use fmobi for facebook chatting etc...
          5) Use mobile documents for push emails
          6) Use OVI maps for navigation (Don't forget to download your country maps via PC)
          7) Use FontZoomer for changing fonts and replace the default font by HumanSans
          8) Use CameraPro for photo shooting (It's 1000 times better than default app)
          9) Use Slide Answer V4 to avoid accidental drops of calls
          10) Use icon changer to change icons
          11) Use Killme app instead of default taskmanager to kill unwanted applications in the background
          12) As an extra, install NFS Shift HD game (which is free) for 3D gaming

          If you do the above all, then you'll not have so many complaints about N8 anymore..

                    @ Drew.

                    I've just checked your product code and can confirm that Anna version 025.8 is available for your North American Green N8.

                    If you are still interested in updating your phone I'd recommend using the latest beta version of Nokia suite that I mentioned and linked to in my previous post.

                    All the best.

                    Ray.

                        I'll check your product code this evenng when I get back home from work. In the meantime, Belle will run very smooth on the N8, no problem. The good thing about Symbian is that it doesn't need high system resources to run efficiently.

                        All the best.

                                      @ Drew.

                                      The usual method of updating the phone is by using Nokia Suite on the PC. You can download the latest Beta version (which is stable as I've been using it for a while now) from http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/nokia-suite-beta?restsso_passive=true.

                                      I will say though, I wasn't at all impressed with the Anna update as it didn't bring much of an improvement to my phone. The portrait QWERTY is painful to use if you've big fingers and the Home screen swiping is laggy, so is the kinetic scrolling. The default web browser hasn't improved much either so I'm still using Opera mobile.

                                      You'd probably be better off waiting for the Belle update which is due for release in February.

                                      Can I ask what your product code is so I can check if Anna is available for your handset or not. Type *#0000# into the phones dial pad and look for an eight digit code starting with 05******. There are still some N8's that haven't been given the update yet.

                                      All the best.

                                      Ray.
