Where's a good place to get an N8? It seems stocks are low on the ground at the moment.

Thanks. Will try and online vendor first, then those places listed above.

I'm getting one tomorrow. It comes with Symbian 3; not the latest stuff.

OK I will do that, thanks for the tip.

Got my phone 1 day early. Following all the steps outlined by aspire2oo6 to update and reset. Taking forever to install the updates. Do I need to take the warranty card to a Nokia service centre to register or can I do it online?

Making the transition from a dinosaur era Nokia to the N8 is not easy!

And calling up the Nokia Careline was painful - got a lady with a strong filipino accent, can barely make out what she was saying.  Looks like their call centre is in Manila or somewhere else in the Philippines.  I've found it much easier to talk to people in call centres located in Bangalore!

Like troglodyte stepping into the 21st century lor.

Aiyoyo, not that teruk lah. I'm transitiong from a 2330c-2. Never owned a smutphone before.

maybe i kena a filipino lor

The filipina lady said no need to do anything. She knew what she was talking about; asked for my phone number, name etc and then I presumed checked in their database. The problem was my brain had to go into overdrive to make out what she was saying. I think the warranty is automatically activated once you set up the phone. The device info and tools screen on Nokia Suite will tell you if your warranty is valid or not.

Added on January 6, 2012, 5:38 pmIs there any way I can disable the light off and auto screen lock function on n8? I want the display to be always on when I'm using Sports Tracker to keep track of my pace while doing a run.

Wah upgrading to Belle liao!

Oh false alarm. No idea what it was all about. I connected my phone and Nokia Suite told me there was a software update available, with the usual string of digits, then "Belle" at the end, not "Anna".

When it was all done, everything looked more or less the same lah!

aiyo, kena tipu liao.

Noob question. When I use sports tracker on my N8, how do I keep the display on all the time while I'm running? I don't want the screen saver to come on or the light to go off and I have to then unlock the damn phone to access the sports tracker display.

Great thanks! Works like a charm.

No problem lah. The longest I run so far is about 5.5 hours. With training, will be under 5. Just make sure I charge the phone kau kau before I run.
