S60 V2 ..?? it is really old apps , Nokia 6600 until Nokia N70

wow .. so old.. no.. it can't


can use the apps from Symbian^1

I thought so, but just asking anyway.

Thanks for the reply.

The major thing when come on apps support are the screen resolution... If it's nHD then it might work...

Thanks again for the info.

Wonder why they don't just do one apps that fit all resolution. Any technical barrier?

because last time, not all apps can support all resolution

I see. Thanks for sharing the info.

True. But worse. They fight like cats and dogs all the time. I find the iphone-android cults very VERY annoying.

Lucky I am not one of the fanboy.
I just like any OS that have good support and many good free/pay apps.
But the most importantly, I want good cameraphone.

Then you will have these options:

N8 » For adult (pro)
IP4S » For kid (dummies)

hey guys, have any of you came across a problem with ur n8 not accepting ur sim card? my sis bought n8 avaxx from nokia center, her hotlink sim card is not being accepted after inserting it in the slot.. whereas others (xpax, celcom postpaid, maxis postpaid) can.

went to maxis center and changed to a new simcard (perhaps old simcard was 5yrs+ already), but unfortunately still wont work. "Insert Sim Card" keeps popping up on her n8..

check at nokia center then?

With N8 successor rumoured to come as early as Q1 2012, I guess I better wait for it. If the improvement is not that much, then I will reconsider N8.

BTW, is Symbian no got many good free software like Android? Just asking coz have not use Symbian for years. Perhaps Symbian now is a lot better than last time?

Thanks.

Yeah, not much free software.
But as always, symbian free stuff easily available over the internet.
For example, garmin mobile xt, office, etc.

Yeah, that is what I thought.

BTW, just found out from my friend that N8 have non user replaceable battery. Just hope it successor will not continue this trend. And also hope for a much bigger capacity battery.

most new devices nowaday all having build in bigger capacity battery... so don't just simply say nokia been dumb... as bigger battery is not easily handle when devices thickness reduction is the trend to go...

Not saying anyone been dumb.
But since you mention, even the small and thin SE Ray got 1500mAh battery.

By the way, N8 battery is replaceable.
Just that you need extra tools (screw driver) to unlock and access the battery compartment.
It's just only a normal battery.

I heard that too but it will certainly void our warranty right?

Because N8 battery is considered part of the phone (non-user replaceable), it enjoys 12 month warranty just like the phone itself. After 12 months, you have no more warranty to worry about anyway.
