Since you clearly did not understand what I was inquiring... allow me to state it even more clearly...

What applications on the N8 are you talking about? And what about the browser? What version of Flash will it have?

Re: Nokia N8 or Nokia N900?

Look at this situation and then tell me something is not going bad.... cpu technology is progressing rapidly so the 600 mhz we got has already been superseded many times in other devices, the camera is 5mp and already been superseded to 12mp on the N8.
Yes ok we can overclock the 900 but thats not the answer as it would only burn out with time and not within the specs of the cpu and m/b design.
Time will tell but facts are there if you want to see them.

Re: Nokia N8 or Nokia N900?

So... no answer for my question.

Seriously. Just direct answers, please. Not a conversation about meaningless numbers.

My E90 had office and everything worked including talking GPS, many examples can be got from symbian and as for flash, it will obviously have the latest version compatible with the hardware within the device.
Browser will have also the latest version but as to performance over the 900 we have to wait and see but you cannot knock something that's not publicly released yet.

this thread has potential now

Again... such as what exactly? So far, this doesn't qualify as an answer but moreso just as an opinion of what you think will happen.

Does the office app on Symbian allow for editing of the newer *.docx, *.pptx and *.xlsx files found in Microsoft Office 2007 and Open Office? Or just legacy *.doc, *.ppt and *.xls files?

And pertaining Flash, doesn't Symbian only have Flash Lite, which is not the same as the full-blown Flash plug-in as in Microb or Android 2.2, et al?

Latest version? Where's your proof? You've gone from "it will have" to "wait and see" in just a few short posts.

Which is it?

Your talking about the N8 which is not released yet so we have no choice but to wait and see.
Read what i said so far about the differences already documented on the N8 as that should already tell you something, whilst your on about office being capable of reading docx, *.pptx and *.xlsx files, what does the N900 have in the way of office? lol.
