Ray Hipkiss, 17 Aug 2011 According to NaviFirm Symbian Anna has appeared on the lis... moreUpdate to my previous post.

I've checked Navifirm again and this time there are several Product codes added to the list including operator branded ones in various countries ( mine is included in the list as well ).
It would seem that Nokia has changed the way they give out updates by allowing everyone to update at the same time rather than rolling out the update gradually region by region.
Even though my Product Code is on the list I'm still not able to update yet. My best guess is that Nokia have disabled the update feature until all PCodes are on the list, but that is just a guess on my part.
Whatever the case, usually once the PCode is on the servers you can update the phone within a day or two.

Cheers.

      Finnaly Anna will be available for OTA updates.
      But seems many are more interested on Belle Leaked version :)

                When I checked Navifirm this morning no product codes were listed. Yet, the screen shot in the link you provided clearly shows a handful of Indian product codes already getting the update. I also noticed that they are using a different version of Navifirm to mine, so I downloaded that same version (1.3) and checked again. I'm still not getting the same results as they are. Very strange.
                Anyway, it won't be long now as Nokia have also starting selling new N8's with Anna pre-loaded.

                      According to NaviFirm Symbian Anna has appeared on the list of available firmwares for the N8. However, it isn't available for any product code yet which means Nokia have released Anna to the networks etc for approval.
                      In the space of a week or two we should start to see Anna being made available for download on unbranded handsets first along with certain country variants, then the rest should follow.
                      I reckon most, if not all N8's will have Anna in four to six weeks.

                        You can safely remove that folder from the phone. It was put there instead of including a CD in the box. It's just the install file for Ovi suite, so it wont affect anything else on the phone.

                        Cheers.

                            AnonD-10882, 17 Aug 2011Nokia N8 vs Xperia Arc whats better specially gaming,browsi... moreDear hmmmmm,

                            Gaming, browsing definitely Sony Xperia Arc wins.. But everything else, Nokia N8 is the way to go...

                            Build Quality: N8 wins by miles ahead... You can drop your N8 without worrying whether it works afterwards... But drop Arc once.. I don't know what will happen... (It's just plastic...)

                            Camera: Arc camera can't come even close to Nokia N8's extraordinary camera..

                            Features: N8 has USB On the Go, Xenon Flash, 16 GB inbuilt memory etc.. Arc has powerful processor, More RAM, Bigger display (But bigger is not better always...) and sexy design & look...

                            Brand Name: Sony is a great brand name overall products.. (televisions, audio devices etc...) no doubt about it... but when it comes to mobile phones.. Noone can beat Nokia...! It's rock solid and had been there for so many years...!

                            If I were you, I will go for N8... Specially because I need camera sooooo much... Without N8 camera, I don't know how to go anywhere...

                            But if the camera and the rigidness, durability of the phone do not matter you that much, then you better go for Arc because it's good in other areas like browsing and gaming...
