why other phone can make a portrait KB practical but not Nookia? Ipon screen r not very much bigger than n8.. the qwerty are pretty good.. some smaller Android also ok...

hahaha.. same here, but mine still the default SP.. will tear it off and leave it naked pretty soon

@nic i tested on the Nokia n8 already speed test
http://www.speedtest.net/

i only achieve 0.23 haha

the slow/lag of N8 is due to unoptimized coding, they can easily fix it with coding performance optimization...look at C5, suppose to perform slower then S^3, and using just 600Mhz, but from what i experience with my mom's unit, it's fast, almost everything responded instantly. They just need more time to fine tune the codes, this is a programmer's life

GPGPU? seriously? do u know how many trouble you would get into just to add more support for it? You have to code with specific API and coding language, and also some special coding method to add support. PC, for example, nVidia's CUDA, supports C and C++ langauge for now, and that also, you need to include their pre defined API, not only that, you will also need to use most of their specific methods. Do you think anyone would go through that much trouble to create a faster but shorter battery life device? Not to mention, GPGPU standards like CUDA, Stream, OpenCL isnt supported in Symbian(like hell it would), that also means nokia would need to use more time and resource to develop their own GPGPU API standard?

make some sense la, it's always easy for end user to say this say that, but for once try to think of the complexity of your 'suggestion' can a not?

come come join the naked party...

6 months down the road with the still crystal clear N8 screen, we turn back our head and grin to those that use SP....

A sec ill do a web browser test for u guys to see
N8 vs N900

I feel the N8 browser is just too slow. I am just curious what speed can it achieve loading a website.

a real programmer really pro... well said..

Yeah, and I think wanna remove the cheap SP and use the glass screen instead.

Only a real programmer can understand it

Me as a regular user, won't understand it at all

guys, just curious, does 3GB data plan is enough for normal usage in n8 per month?

cakap lagi.. later xiongxiong kok ur head only know...

I think it's enough

depends what do u do regularly.
If u surf forum alot in mobile mode , IM chatting , retrieve email header only = 200MB also consider too much di


If u watch alot of streaming video, download alot huge files 3GB also not enough

for me browse lyn 100MB also too much always got too much left over every month my limit 500MB

hehe... for just fb/online browsing i would say enuf kua... use my dataplan for about 4 days total usage ~60mb...
but later i will go for digi unlimited... hehehe... full web experience... worry free..

photo zooming and kenetic scrolling would need to be optimzed though, but that is not GPGPU related.

@Leo: Actually all those are just something that you can learn thru the web..i didnt get myself involve in any of those as well, it's just sometimes to explore a bit on more info...just saying that while it's not impossible, i don think nokia would do to that extend, cos that would mean rebuild the whole kernel, and if they do that, it wouldnt be called a Symbian^3 anymore..

what about mail, alot social networking + some youtube, and maybe sometime ovi store?

for me, past 3 week was 2GB...per week

Gorilla Grass mah.. very geng one...

I understand wor.. I am not a programmer...

if you stick to 'some', it would be enough

I only use 100mb for my e-mails and facebook.. but it seems to be finishing quick..might just opt for 500 mb a month. Should be more then enough

sound like should be alright if all the above are some some some.
