it works for in landscape mode too. but the problem with mine is that when i press lets say, 2(ABC), none of the A, B or C comes out but an E. Or when I press the 1(.,?), a W comes out. So predictive text for me in portrait is totally unusable.

Guys, h/p supplies macam macam ada. The retailer confirmed he get for me already. Now the problem, if we go out buy N8 after this week, the retailers will jack up the price to 1.8k, 1.9k. Because, now suppliers purposely don wan supply ori phone already cuz next year h/p no more tax (they keeping the phone, create stock deficiency, then jack up price). The supplier want to push the sales of AP until stock finish andthey wont sell ori, unless u pay premium price. Motherf**ker.

Those who want to buy, better buy from Nokia store (but there is a possibility they will jack up the price). So, even if you want to avoid first batch stock and wait a few months till next year, you are likely to get first batch stock also. I pretend go ask other shops they give high price, because lack stock. The retailer i order from finally told me the reason.  vmad.gif  vmad.gif  vmad.gif

I juz mentioned what happened to price increase. Got seller tell me oredi, lucky i get price still ok.

Nokia also hopping mad at the retailers, some of which decides to play around with the price. Even retailers listed in the Nokia adverts sometime plays with price, I know of one guy here that regularly charges 100 more than the normal retail price for his phones. Used to buy from him because he used to take in high trade ins - but since I found lowyat, and since his trade in price drop like rock already, stopped buying from him already.

Nokia's strategy is just to paste the RRP on the newspapers, and make sure the retail channels they control, especially the Hello stations do comform to the retail price. Paid a visit to three Nokia Hello stations today, and all of them are selling the N8 at the RRP price of RM1690. I do wish they would open one at Seremban though, may stop the crazy price plays retailers here are playing.

I think most retailers are longing for the good old days, where customers were dumb a bit on phones. Now I just laugh when clueless sales kids tell me to charge the phone 8 hours. blink.gif

Yeah, but now margin getting thinner and thinner. Unless you big player, where they give you menu, and you buy according to menu. Small players sure die one, since menu normally includes really lowsy phones also.

I've discovered that the 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 buttons in portrait inputs, W,E,R,T,Y,U,I,O,P respectively. Only one letter for each number. This certainly must be a software problem.

Who should I go to? The Nokia store where i bought i from or a Nokia service centre?

N8 killed N900 and N97 actually. Especially when N8 and C7 is better than N900 in terms of hardware specs and only difference is OS.

On basic hardware(cpu+gpu+RAM) N900 still better.However N8's "polished" software & hardware makes it a better buy that N900.

About the battery indicator,expect free QT based battery indicator in OVI Store soon.
