Guys, my dad says he wants ipad, but i opted to convince him that the Nokia N8 is one heck of the choice he should choose.

The problem is that have anyone of you guys have tried to connect to the LCD display from N8 using the HDMI to a converter to a VGA port at his monitor?

I tried connecting HDMI to my LCD TV before
I tried connecting the yellow, red and white cable to my TV and computer before.

If your computer have the yellow plug u can use.
First what's your purpose you dad want to get the ipad if its for internet, wifi, games , microsoft office i recommend ipad too

If he uses it as a digital camera then i recommend NOkia N8

His purpose is for stock market viewing. He said that he always have unused quota for the iphone 3GS and wanted to use in Ipad, but Iphone 3GS is not using the micro sim right?

The issue now lies is that all the monitors he have is old ones and i suppose non of them have the HDMI port, but they have the VGA ports. I was thinking of getting a converter for him and enable him to plug into the computer.

Well, he is going to use it for the stock market viewing purposes. HDMI port can enlarge the view for him. biggrin.gif He is 40 years old plus, so games is out. Microsoft Office he does not even bother to buy for his office use. He just use the open office.

By the way, Ipad 1 seems to be out of stock and Ipad 2 does not have an ETA in Malaysia yet.

N8 is not recommended for web browsing due to the limitation of screen resolution.

They wanted to get it before June and budget is below RM2k.

That is why i asked about the HDMI ports to VGA if any of you guys have used it.

Hi guys.. a silver egg user reporting in  icon_rolleyes.gif

Initially when i got my N-egg, I fell in love with it however i slowly got frustrated with it due to the problems below:
1) Purple Tinting Screen
After explaining to the NCC in Singapore for an hour and trying to prove there is something wrong with the screen. They finally admit there is a problem but there is no solution because all the new batch have the same problem. They will only inform me if manage to find a solution.  yawn.gif

2) Mic non-functioning during a specific period
Mic not functioning every early morning till 11am. After 11am, it will work normally.  shakehead.gif Manage to fix it after visiting two times in NCC.

3) Fluctuating GSM Signal
I notice the signal keeps fluctuating sometimes. Never happen to my N5800 before. BTW i only use GSM network mode. I will feedback to NCC next round  whistling.gif

4) Unable to insert one of my simcard
My digi simcard keeps pushing out during insertion. However the rest of my simcard is able to insert in. Ask the NCC regarding this problem, they told me is due to the sides of the simcard  yawn.gif

5) FM transmitter have distortion sound
Whenever i connect my FM transmitter to my radio, I can hear a low distortion sound especially when no songs are played.  doh.gif

Anyone facing the problems i stated above?  icon_question.gif

When you buy your N8? hmm.gif
