hmm..okok
i know that the N8 camera is better..but i what i concern is the application..
the N8 using the symbian^3 does it support google voice ?
i know that the android application is much more compare to the nokia ovi store.
yea..i will use it for online..most the time when away from pc.
and longer battery life is better.
actually speaker not really important for me..

budget?

I would say andriod devices fits your criteria if you can live with not so good camera except sgs.

Google voice currently is only available in US only.

hmm my budget is about 1500-2000
but it would be good if i can use cellphone to take photo too, because sometime lazy to bring my DSLR..
so undecided which one to buy..
yea..i currently in US..so that can use google voice..it pretty cheap to call back Malaysia RM0.12 per minute to cellphone and RM0.06 per min to landline..

I guess there is a catch for such a cheap price right?

Always try to understand why the seller try to sell cheap.

Check out for the handphone warranty, whether there is full accessories and other possible factor that makes him to sell cheap.

hmm.you can get this price..because he is a grey importer..so didn't get taxed by government..so pretty sure will cheaper than the price from dealer..
i even can get a cheaper price than this..

In my opinion Android OS can be customize (once rooted you can gain full control of it) but rooting will void your warranty. So make sure you unroot it before sending it to warranty. Although I don't have an Android but according to what I've seen, Android is better. (Not to say BB OS is bad, cause I've never search through it)

Hope it helped.  thumbup.gif

You are welcome.

Another sincere advice:

Try not do this kinda thing to your working/business phone.

Why not you wait for the release of the new firmware?

N97 also experience problem with its FIRST firmware after its release. Later Nokia release a new firmware for it to fix a problem.

because my cell phone battery got problem now..so planning to change a phone..

Depends how u use it. When the person complain you first must learn his skill and experience. My definition of lag and his definition maybe different. Maybe he press wrong button it load too long he also call lag? or he open too many apps den he said lag?
For me there no lag at all. I can prepare a video to show u later.

I do not think we are charged for the GPS signal usage.

Data usage charged according to the telco rate.
