[deleted post]N 8 has just been released. I suggest we wait for a site like GSMarena to do an indepth review, before we jump to conclusions.
Further more, a phone needs to suit one's needs and both N 8 and Wave would do well.
I donot agree that bada will go extinct in 4 years. Would you please cite your sources on this.

Anyone encountered this error about driver not installed:
"Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM"
Never had this problem with Samsung Kies before. This error occurred both in Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 Home Premium. My phone is no longer detected.

I agree with No. 8 point. Wave doesn't support Bluetooth PAN. I can only use the phone as a modem using the 3G connection via mobile AP. No direct usb tethering. :-(

Anonymous, 30 Sep 2010Nokia is only NAME for old glory of quality!!!
10 reason... more1. N8 - CPU 680 (A6) vs 1Gz (A8) - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
(booth phones have IDENTICAL GPU = WAVE is FASTER because have GREAT CPU)
But A11-680Mhz consumes less energy than A8-1GHz. If the OS doesn't need the higher spec CPU, why wasting the battery life?
2. N8 - Symbian vs BADA (speed test) - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
No, Symbian is a much more established system. Most forecasters say bada will have 0% market share 4 years from now on, i.e., bada will go extinct.
3. N8 - NO LED for VIDEO - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
Let's wait for the reviews.
The Xenon flash in the N8 will totally kick theh wave's butt in still photography.
4. N8 - VIDEO is 25fps vs 30fps (better CPU) - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
If you really need 30fps, then I agree that wave is better here. However, you should also be prepared for the larger file size.
5. N8 - old AMOLED vs Super AMOLED (you must see) - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
The N8 uses AMOLED CBD, which according to Engadget is on par with super AMOLED.
6. N8 - only 256 mb of RAM vs 512mb - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
Symbian^3 can use 1GB virtual RAM. 1GB VS 512MB. enough said.
7. N8 - 1200 battery vs 1500 - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
bada is a resource hog compared to Symbian, no wonder it needs a battery with a larger capacity.
8. N8 - NOT have mobile AP - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
The N8 can use mobile AP via app. Additionally, it has direct tethering via USB & Bluetooth, and it also supports ad-hoc networks, does wave?
9. N8 - 360 x 640 vs 480 x 800 pixels - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
I agree with you on this. But remember that 480x800 will also comsume more battery.
10.N8 is BIGGER and UGLY and wight 135 g vs 118 - NO CHANCE vs Wave!
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I prefer the N8 and its colour choices.
you need MORE arguments WHY is WAVE NOT THE BEST ????
11. N8's 1/1.83" camera sensor VS wave's miniscule camera sensor
12. Symbian has over 14,000 apps VS wave's tiny app library
13. N8's Bright & powerful Xenon flash VS wave's weak LED flash
14. Symbian supports true multitasking VS wave's half-baked multitasking
15. Free superior lifetime Ovi Navigation available in over 70 countries VS wave's navigation at extra cost
16. N8 has better box contents such as capacitive stylus and superior headphones with audio remote control
17. N8 has HDMI port; wave has none.
18. N8 supports USB OTG; wave doesn't.
19. N8 supports pentaband 3G; wave doesn't.
20. N8 is available in 5 different colours; a wave lacks the choices.
21. N8 supports video call at the OS level; a wave doesn't
22. N8 supports Qt; a wave doesn't.
23. many more reasons. Just choose the phone that best suits you, no need to trash talk other brands.

It seems to me that somebody is using a proxy to alter the wave voting results. I was reading the wave specification, then I clicked my browser refresh button. Surprise! surprise! The number of votes have gone up by about 50 votes. Then I tried the same thing in less than a minute then the number goes up by 10 votes. Geez, I know you love your phone or the company you work for but don't you think you're abusing the voting system?
