if you want me to list out ALL the SE phones, i can't help you in that. but based on my previous owned SE phone, SE K300, K770 and my friend's SATIO.. Those phones do not have camera sound when in silent mode. And now i'm using Iphone 3G, it does not have camera sound as well.
Well its hard to pin point which phone will implement this mandatory feature. Also, it could be this mandatory silent have not yet come to full effect, at least for the Malaysia market.
Take a look at the Japanese iPhone 3GS, it already features the mandatory silent mode.
Let's hope for some improvement in the next coming firmware updates. Fingers cross man...

I agree in a way because Symbian has this silent arrogance in them. "You use Nokia you'll have to use Symbian". Bounded... but Nokia is engaging MeeGo for future... let's see what coming.
According to Phonearena, a firmware update would bring in the new webkit browser.

The browser on the Nokia N8 is definitely a weak point, compared to Safari in the iPhone 4. While it has pinch-to-zoom, the scrolling is often choppy, especially if the page contains Flash, and the interface is a chore to use. Filling in the above mentioned web address takes much more stages than the needed one. A firmware update is expected to bring Swype and a new WebKit browser, but out of the box typing and browsing has stayed in the Symbian^1 era. The Safari browser on the iPhone 4, in contrast, is smooth as silk, quite fast and a pleasure to use, with the lack of Flash being the only nuisance.
Looks like Swype is only available for C7 at the moment.

Hi Mark,
My name is Brian Resnik and I'm the Community Relations Associate for SwypeInc.
I would first like to point out that Swype is only listed as available for the C7 in the OVI store. It is not yet available or supported on other Nokia model phones. Please let us know if you saw Swype when browsing the OVI store using your N8, as that is an issue we would need to follow up on. Following the link posted in the above article directly to the download is not a supported installation method for Swype on Symbian.
That being said, we agree that while Swype in Landscape works well, many people prefer to use Swype in Portrait mode. However, at this time Nokia does not support a QWERTY keyboard in Portrait mode on the C7 and other S^3 devices, so Swype is not available as a keyboard in Portrait mode. Please note, Swype is not currently supported on the N8. Installing Swype on the N8 may result in your having to hard reset your device to factory default settings to remove Swype.
Haiz N95 is also smartphone, so, N8? is it one? Smartphone means got 3G. If a phone got Wifi but no 3G, it is still not a smart phone (example Nokia C5-03, new phone)
Err..wrong.

The first smartphone was called Simon; it was designed by IBM in 1992 and shown as a concept product[7] that year at COMDEX, the computer industry trade show held in Las Vegas, Nevada. It was released to the public in 1993 and sold by BellSouth. Besides being a mobile phone, it also contained a calendar, address book, world clock, calculator, note pad, e-mail, send and receive fax, and games. It had no physical buttons to dial with. Instead customers used a touch-screen to select phone numbers with a finger or create facsimiles and memos with an optional stylus. Text was entered with a unique on-screen "predictive" keyboard. By today's standards, the Simon would be a fairly low-end product; however, its feature set at the time was incredibly advanced.
The Nokia Communicator line was the first of Nokia's smartphones starting with the Nokia 9000, released in 1996. This distinctive palmtop computer style smartphone was the result of a collaborative effort of an early successful and expensive Personal digital assistant (PDA) by Hewlett Packard combined with Nokia's bestselling phone around that time, and early prototype models had the two devices fixed via a hinge. The Nokia 9210 was the first color screen Communicator model which was the first true smartphone with an open operating system; the 9500 Communicator was also Nokia's first cameraphone Communicator and Nokia's first WiFi phone. The 9300 Communicator was the third dimensional shift into a smaller form factor, and the latest E90 Communicator includes GPS. The Nokia Communicator model is remarkable for also having been the most expensive phone model sold by a major brand for almost the full lifespan of the model series, easily 20% and sometimes 40% more expensive than the next most expensive smartphone by any major manufacturer.
In 1997 Ericsson released the concept phone GS88,[8][9] the first device labelled as 'smartphone'
Seriously, i dont understand the list at all, how they charge, how they count, how they deduct, and for what... But the figures are outright outrageous...
Don't understand? Its perfectly clear lah.
They just want MORE MONEYZ. They purposely want you to go overboard.
Go complain to MCMC. For Maxis come in one ear and out the other.
