phone?

All I see is a big assed watermark.]]>Jun 25th 2010 4:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
I'm calling fake on this one.

Although if it's not I'm definitely interested.]]>Jun 25th 2010 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
Have no idea why Nokia announces the death of symbian smartphones before launching the N8. Makes little sense.]]>Jun 25th 2010 5:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
It definitely is not the N9 since this is running what looks like Symbian^3 whereas N9 is supposed to run MeeGo. If its C Series, it must be a mid range phone (the lack of metal shows that) priced below the N8.

The only thing I can recall them saying is that N-series phones would use MeeGo in the future and that the rest of their lineup, like the X&C-series would continue to use symbian, but hey, you know best :-P]]>Jun 25th 2010 5:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/Jun 25th 2010 5:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/Does seem like a sweet superphone. Throw stock Android on it and give it to any other provider and I'd buy one right now.

I especially love the look of the keyboard and the screen's tilt (I'm thinkin airplane or desk viewing)]]>Jun 25th 2010 5:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
Why? Can you give me specific reasons why stock Android is better than Symbian^3?

You think the full review they're preparing for tomorrow is for a fake? That should be interesting.

Here they explain well how Nokia is not abandoning Symbian. It will continue to be the most prevalent mobile OS, and will be for a long time.

The N8 had that C0 when it was first leaked.

Read this: Engadget didn't post this article. They even deleted my comment, which had the same article linked in it. Trying again. Let's see.

I'm a big fan of Nokia's hardware, and I complimented the design...

Anyways, now that I have Android I just don't want to make the switch until something way above and beyond is out, ya know? Plus, I'm a fan of Google documents and gmail.

I just would like to see a Nokia phone with Android OS is all... I've always thought they had the best build quality.]]>Jun 25th 2010 6:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
Google integration. Google nav. Lack of Ovi Suite (I "use" it with my E63). Apps. Yeah yeah yeah. I know Symbian's "App Store" is the internet, but you can't get around the fact that notable apps like Amazon music, Kindle, and Pandora are absent on Symbian (at least on S60).

Yes Symbian is a great OS. But it does have its shortcomings.]]>Jun 25th 2010 6:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/I actually like the ovi suite software somewhat, better than having nothing to be honest]]>Jun 25th 2010 7:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/Jun 25th 2010 7:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/
Ovi Maps, Ovi Integration. Pandora is US only, I have an Amazon app as well as Ovi Music etc.

Those are features mind, not the OS though.]]>Jun 25th 2010 7:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.entel.cl/]]>Jun 25th 2010 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/

It might be an N98, if Nokia is still following that naming convention. or else it would be a C series, like you said. ]]>Jun 26th 2010 3:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/Jun 26th 2010 4:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/Jun 26th 2010 4:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/nokia-n9-or-something-in-the-wild-8-megapixel-camera-america/I have used a proto of this one and I gotta tell you.
I wish N8 would have the same keyboard. I personally like the keyboard in this one, much better than N900 and N97 if someone wants a comparison.

Engadget has shown before a picture of the green qwerty that was looking like this few months ago.
