Anyone know how to add additional homescreens in Bel le on N8. There should be maximum 6 homescreens, but i can't seem to find the setting. Perhaps its because of the version of the Belle i'm using. Anyway, guys who are using 701, how do you do on your phone?

        Danz, 27 Aug 2011n8 over 701 aluminium body. Dolby plus chip' hdmi port ... moreDolby plus chip is only via HDMI and aluminum body is not that great because it gets damaged very very easily and 701 has stainless steel. 701 comes in really cool and rare colors.
        and the body is not 100% same as C7
        C7 117.3 mm and 701 117.2 (length)
        C7 10.5 mm and 701 11 mm (thick)
        C7 130 g and 701 131 g (weight)

        But, still 701 is not as powerful to make you wonna switch from N8...

            The 701 doesn't have proper NFC because it doesn't support contactless payment (which is what NFC is all about). It only supports tap to play for gaming.
            Also, the battery on the 701 is only a 1300 mAh unit, so with that in mind it won't last anywhere near the figures given by Nokia due to it's LCD display which are more power hungry than AMOLED displays.
            Personally, I can't see the 701 being a very popular phone as it doesn't bring anything new or exciting to the smart phone market. It still doesn't have full Adobe Flash 10.x support even though it has a 1 GHz CPU, dedicated GPU and 512 MB of RAM. Even though it is running on Belle, it is still Symbian after all, which a lot of people are shying away from now including software developers.

            All the best.

                @ lash7

                As you have bought your phone from the USA it will have a USA product code, therefore you will not be able to upgrade to Anna yet because Anna hasn't been released for the USA yet.
                If you are living in another country you won't have a warranty either, I'm sorry to tell you. The warranty only applies to the country the phone was bought in.

                              i was thinking to buy android phone but I realize I wont spend all time pinching thru the touchscreen, so in the end I bought this phone because of the amount of hardware i can get with my money. Aluminum body, good audio chip, 12mp af mechanical camera with xenon flash and red eye. hdmi out, fm modulator,penta band,clear black amoled,good reception,upcoming symbian belle. and lastly because of this video -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLlMu5ahB3M
