I have version 2.8.2 I think and not the latest version. I will have to manually download the latest version (2.8.8 I think) because for WP8 you will not find it in the store. I've also heard people having some issues with it so I don't want to mess with it yet. I can live with some of the quirks with the current version I have right now.

Err what does that mean? I downloaded the application last week when I first got the phone. I think I used the US store and managed to download it directly to my phone.

Ahhh WP also got this jailbreaking thingy ehh ... sweet.

RM1999 for Lumia 920 is cheap. You cannot get a 16GB iPhone for that kind of price (yes, I know people will argue that iPhone is a Lambo/Ferrari which is absurd). I switched from the 4s to the Lumia and I'm lovin' it.

As for the prices after 1 year. There is a reason for that, it's due to the fact that Windows Phone 8 is coming out and you cannot upgrade the 900 to that OS. I'm sure with the new NT kernel for WP8 and support for multi-core processor, I'm sure the OS support will be better than the previous WP7

Confirm that the phone is going to go on sale on the 21st? I will be back in KL in early January and thought of buying some of the accessories (wireless charger, wireless stand and maybe the JBL speakers as well)

It's funny that over here in Saudi, the White & Black are the ones sold out, Yellow & Red are in stock. I guess the Arabs here cannot "carry" the Yellow/Red color.

Went to the Nokia store yesterday to get back my money for the pre-order. I don't know what is going on with the Nokia store here but they really do suck. There were 6-7 people crowding arounf the new 920 and 820 (live models but secured to the normal security apparatus) and while waiting to get my money back, I showed them my Lumia (so jadi salesman sket). They were mighty impressed with the camera and the function and asked me a lot of questions about the apps etc. Anyway, it was funny because I told them that it will be impossible to get it from the store and recommended them to get it from the exclusive mobile operator here.

As they were giving me back my money, I asked if they have the wirelss charger and lucky for me they have 5 units in stock but no yellow so I went and got the white plate. Paid an extra 45 riyal (the cost was SAR245) and went home happy. Tested the charging on the plate last night and was really happy with it. Someone called and I just picked up the Lumia without having to juggle with taking out the micro-usb etc etc ... pretty cool I would say.

The thing is, how do we know that it's stopped charging even with the MicroUSB charger? Is there an indicator that it has stopped charging?

Thanks! I will check it out tonight as well.

At least you got it for free right? I had to pay an extra RM245 (RM190) for the thing ... heh heh heh

I'm in Saudi so I'm not sure if my answer will be relevant to your situation.

No, the wireless charger is connected to the main electrical outlet.

Heh heh heh ... then you have to take the plug with you la. The main aim for the wireless charger is to enable you to charge the phone wirelessly, the charger is permanently connected to the electrical outlet and you will just need to put your Nokia on the charger plate. When you receive a call, you will not need to take the phone out from the charger, just pick it up and answer the call.

Some say that it is a small matter but let me tell you, I have had one USB cable charger ripped when I picked up and answer a call on my iPhone which was charging at the time. Forgot that it was charging and the phone's been ringing a while so in a rush picked it up and wham ... kena beli cable baru.

Yes. Just drag and drop.

That would be a wireless battery pack right? I think that would be a good idea but the one implemented right now is like those cordless phone base station.

Then we will have all this groups saying that it is causing cancer etc ....

Cyan is only available in the US market.

Let's hope so but the 920 still has not received this update.

Let's hope so. I am still waiting for the Nokia Touch + update and hopefully the latest updates that has been rolled out to the HTC 8x. Apparently there's more to this update that the Wifi always on update.

WP8 Updates for HTC 8x

I am quite happy that WP8 or Microsoft is coming up with these updates and extra features. Very impressive.
