One thing in Samsung phones is very weird. Lots of samsung phones have atleast 10 hours of talktime and if you think in a logical way it should be also much over 20 hours of mp3 but it's always about 13 hours. So weird. I mean If you look at the iPhone the music play time is so much longer but the talk time is about the same. Nokia with their phone have about 7-12 hours of talk time and have about 20-50 hours of mp3 play time. So that makes no sence to me. Could some one explain why it is like that in Samsung phones?

        Hey dude i have heard that due to shortage of AMOLED, now Samsung wont provide AMOLED screen phones in India and it wil provide only in usa. I heard that in 1 sgs forum on Orkut. Is it true?

                            viraf, 18 Jan 2011hey gaurav hi. Remember me? Was not checking sgs forum sinc... moreYeah, one of my friends has a N8, one of the reasons I dont like it is because its Symbian, the UI is very dull. The application startup of the phone is pretty slow, the keypad doesnt look good, also it doesnt have sweep/swype text, that makes your typing speed very slow, the application market is too expensive, whats the use of such a phone when you've got to pay for all the HD games? N8 is just a better hardware version of 5800, better touch screen and processor thats it.
