Ok from someone who has the N8 ill give my verdict.

Nokia phones are great, they are built well and generally work as intended with great battery life/call quality etc (Symbian Nokias this is not MS Nokias).

The downside is the apps that are available arent that far reaching if you want anything mainstream, there are e-readers and video apps and music apps and games but prices tend to be more than iphone or android (excepot the free ones obviously).

I personally love mine for its talktime and call quality and keep it just for that, for the fun stuff goes on my Galaxy Note.

If you're an app type person then really look hard at what you like to use on it first, if you just care about the phone then the Nokia will do you proud.

they say n9 is going to support android apps, using some kind of emulator thats not the way i would want my apps to run but its better than nothing, the phone itself is great as far as you dont care that much for 3rd party apps, but the important ones are there

The phones are great, but you probably dodged a bullet anyways.

Nokia is closing OVI Store for good.
