man i'm a bit worried bout the nokia built in browser. kinda laggy from the video review

has opera mini confirmed their browser for this phone yet?

Hmm...yep N8 browser looks quite laggy, esp in flash infested sites.
Java already been supported out of the box for N8. Hence no worries
OTOH, Opera Mobile was also confirmed to be working in some reviews. The only thing lacking is the multitouch gestures (pinch to zoom etc)

No. In fact the tablet above was just the Intel reference model of Meego tablet.
And Nokia Meego smartphone will be on N Series, not S series. This was confirmed by Nokia themselves icon_rolleyes.gif

For those who cared, it was said that the web browser of Symbian^3 will be separated from the main OS itself, a la Ovi Maps, which should allow for more frequent updates to the browser themself. And the browser that currently on N8, Browser 7.2 ( The same as Nokia N97 mini etc.) will be upgraded to Browser 8.0, possibly being based on QTWebkit, later this year. Hence, we should see much improvement on the N8 browser department.
Found this on allaboutsymbian forums.

TL;DR? To summarize, MORE awesome browser for N8 thumbup.gif

Not really. How many people out there even care about MeeGo at this time?

Do you think they even care the type of OS that runs the hand phone that:

1. Has 12 MP flash with Xenon
2. Touch screen
3. Price below RM 2k
4. 720p video capture
5. Integrated facebook, web browsers

Maybe some of us do want to save up for MeeGo but honestly, we're a minority. Even I didn't care the sort of OS that runs on my N82.

So what if symbian was not used on N series anymore. It was still used in other series as well (E, X, C etc).
And not to mention, this was as same as what Nokia had been planning all these time. Push Meego as their high end OS while using symbian for their lower end phones. And judging from N8, I doubt that the lower end= Worse hardware rolleyes.gif
Just wait and see. Exciting times ahead yo! thumbup.gif

Eldar Murtazin, the Russian Phone God posted his impression on Symbian^3
Read it here

And this was quoted from his twitter page

if you want to know i like s4, and my opinion that s3 have not to be launch (bad image for nokia, s4 coming really soon)

Hmm, symbian^4 looks quite delicious rite now. And tbh, if one of the main critic of Nokia says that he likes it, then I'm sure that it will be really good brows.gif

Hmm, at long last it was confirmed by Nokia themselves that N8 will be the last N Series to feature Symbian OS. After this, all N series will be based on Meego OS.

Well N8 have its own merit too. The best bang for the buck I believe.
And not to mention, the N8 runs Symbian^3, which supports both S60v5 apps as well as QT apps ( Meego, Symbian^4 and beyond). Hence, if some cannot live without certain S60v5 apps (Garmin comes into mind here), maybe N8 is the best shot after all. Don't forget that Symbian^4 breaks all compatibility with S60 apps though. icon_idea.gif

And Samsung? Pfft, as drollworthy as Wave looks like, I can't trust them for support on my phone.
Yes, I already played with Wave + Bada OS before, and I've to agree that it is quite sleek and have some potential. But again, I don't believe them with supporting my phone. And before I been flamed by others, I believe that support in this terms not only in adding new features but also must include bug fixing and polishing existing functions. The main prob with Samsung was dat they tend to check almost all things in terms of function but then also left out quite damn bugs.
Pretty damn annoying if u ask me

well... my n97 until today still pretty buggy already soooo many version of firmware release....  sweat.gif

At least there was some effort by Nokia to rectify the problems. Heck we even got our newest Fw v22. Being an N97 user too, I too felt PITA when suddenly the phone started to crap out on me sweat.gif

But for Samsung, as they market the phone, well thats about it. Heck some if it become worse after updates from samsung...*cough omnia hd cough* whistling.gif

REALLY?no more symbian device can support GARMIN XT???symbian lose a strong advantage compare to other OS....

Yup, Garmin already dun update their S60 and Winmo app. The reason? Well they already have their own Garmin Nuviphone rolleyes.gif
But for me, Ovi Maps + Free navigation is enuff icon_rolleyes.gif

LOL...hope dat not the case. AFAIK, N8 was supposed to launch in July, but as Nokia want to make sure dat the OS is really2 stable before shipping it, it was delayed to August.
