I went to buy the iphone 4g for my friend, but couldn't find it, and the price is really expensive as well. Almost ended up buying the n900 but didn't, I kind of liked the n900 for myself as well, I think I might buy it to replace the n97, x10 couldn't replace my n97 as I expected and I still hate android.

I would buy the n8 today if it was available, as for myself, I will continue using x10 and n97, but might replace with n900 soon, or maybe even today because there aren't many n900s left!

        Btw, question, I need to give a gift to a friend, looking for the best phone possible, iphone 4g? The friend doesn't like sony so its out of the question, N8 isn't available yet.

              Now I'm leaning towards X10 mini pro, really cue device.

                                  -may i knw wat the diff btw photolight & photoflash? (Vivaz Pro & n5530 use which 1?)

                                  - i like to sms.. but wen im smsing.. there is no any smiley icons for me to use it.. ( i love my w580i which hv smiley icons n the animation icons to use)
                                  - the interface is so so for me..almost like all nokia functions..

                                  The features i wan to get in Vivaz Pro:-

                                  - the good quality picture? any sample to c? in 5mp..

                                  - messaging tat can insert smiley face?

                                  - love the interface in previous SE phone..located in tis phone too?

                                  - i love to watch movie..hv real player rite? smtimes i wil listen to FM radio too...

                                  - like those nokia using 'ovi store' to dl stuff.. how bout sony?

                                  - i knw symbian is an OS..the interface design hv influenced on it?.. honestly..i dunlike nokia interface..i use to SE..its nice n direct..

Overall as BlackBerry itself is not yet for me so I will never get one. But I do have BlackBerry's china copy, three of them. And I got one for my sister too.

                                        I have copies of BlackBerry Storm, 9650 and Pearl. Don't use them tho. Just keeping them in for showcase.

                                        I was thinking to find you some quick solutions for typing in symboles over your BlackBerry's keyboard.

                                        About Vivaz Battery, well any smartphone now a days can hardly last for more than a day (in proper use) However I was looking over several things so I will list them down here for you and others but I am not confirmed it will work as I am thinking.

                                        I noticed during surfing the batteries goes down pretty fast, but I also noticed, surfing through Opera Mini doesn't eat battery like it is in Opera full. So for regular site surfing such as GSMArena or checking emails directly using gmail, you can always use Opera mini. It is fast and it is cost effective if you are on a tight data plan so even with images enabled it does a good job rendering pages. Most of all it is not sucking too much juice (in my experiments)

                                        You can try that too to check it.
