Thank you for emailing Nokia Careline.

We understand that you would like to use the predictive text input of your Nokia N8 in the portrait mode. Please be advised that we have checked and verified that, as of the moment, the predictive text input is especially designed for use in the landscape mode. However, there is a possibility that this feature may be activated in the next update. Please be assured that Nokia is continually looking at ways of improving to provide you with better products and services.

Huh? Is that a misunderstanding? T9 right? It can be used in portrait mode... cannot use in landscape.

T9 is meant to be used on keypads (portrait). Why would it be used in landscape QWERTY?

input option - activate prediction
change it in manually 

Anyway,

Things that I find interesting as I continued using N8:-

1) I started to like taking pics and video... of just about anything
2) The browser seem to behave better now... although still have the scrolling problem when zoom in
3) The HD playback + better GPU really amaze me although I hardly uses them but maybe due to my Legend mediocre GPU, it somehow feel its great to have it
4) It has much worse battery life than my Legend even when running lesser widgets

so little?? //(^0^)// come on... users... report urself innnnnn
