N8 speaker sounds pretty good (and very loud) to me as long as it isn’t lying on a soft surface. And obviously most people just use headphones if they need quality sound.

I really want these two loud speakers so I will be able to share a phone call outdoors, to hear Ovi Maps instructions in my car. I want to be able to listen to a podcast in my bed without having to turn the phone upside down. I want to hear bass frequencies when I listen to a music.

So yes if the loudspeakers are just average then this phone will be useless, if not it will be on my top list.

I know EDoF is worse than the N8 for photos but for videos it’s better.

And for the screen, 4″ will make it easier to type on the portrait qwerty keyboard, the N8 is really narrow.

Oh yeah and the C: drive is bigger also.

But this is the same stuff almost one year later by the time its released. I mean think about when we first heard about the n8 hardware – it was AGES ago. You’d think they would make some advances. Just can’t really see where this phone fits in. Hell, at least throw in a 1ghz processor to keep the cpu nuts happy….

P.s. A playstation etc is also much weaker than a pc, but graphiks are good because software is exactly written to the hardware.

The rest is all much the same isn’t it? Or am I missing something…
