Yoh! Congrats on that new N8, Tespz!!
Love that green colour too!
Further to Rob's post re 'pinch to zoom', this was taken from GSMArena:
'Pinch-to-zoom coming soon to the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10
Sony Ericsson once said multi-touch isn't ever coming to the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 smartphone but now, under the users and developers community pressure, the company engineers finally found a way to enable pinch zooming on the X10.
Sony Ericsson first said that there were some hardware limitations stopping its team from enabling the multi-touch support on the XPERIA X10 but as it turned out a couple of weeks back, the company didn't give its device the multi-touch blessing just because Sony Ericsson didn't want to.
But now, thanks to the numerous unhappy customers, the company finally decided to start working on enabling the pinch-to-zoom on its Eclair-serving toy. The multi-touch input method will be enabled in the web browser and the Google maps app (hopefully later elsewhere as well) and is coming some time in Q1 2011 via an Over-the-Air software update.'

Yeah Wangs that is great news about the Multi touch for X10.You need a strong heart if you have this phone.The ups and downs.
But if you are a tinkerer then its the perfect phone.You dont get the joy of getting everything out the box. You basically have to play and explore to get your phone perfect.I enjoy it.You learn a lot about the inner going ons about a phones hardware and sofrware.
Its incredible watching these Devs in action.They are a pretty impressive bunch of chaps.

Truly amazing that when things aren't really going right with a person/company/property almost everything else simply goes wrong. Sad for Nokia, hopefully this is affecting a few N8s.
Whoever said 'when it rains...'

Dual boot Froyo in X10! Anyone gonna try when a ROM is available.I am only going to explore this ROM thing when it is polished and everything works.I'm not experimenting with half cooked ROMs.SE Eclair 2.1 is working just fine.No issues fom me and its quite nippy as it
Wangs Going to go to a CellC and see if they have a working Mini unit to play around with.Hope they do.I like the fact CellC allow you to play on live phones now.Makes such a difference before making a purchase.

Thanks Dups! And Wanqa!

Mine is fine so far, ive had 2reboots though, ive been following the whole issue of dead N8s for a while and it certainly aint a "small number" of them, many report that the phone starts rebooting a lot and then never boots again, and some received units that were dead on arrival, hope they realy have found the issue, makes me a lil nervous.

Yep, im writing my review today, but i wont put it up til the nite before the competition ends, as looking at the #N8ReviewZA tweets some people are copying ideas, there must be 4 or 5 all doing a daily review, i knew from the very beginning that wouldn't be such a good idea so to answer your Q from the Desire HD topic, yep im doing a similar review to what Eldar does, ive always found his reviews to be so detailed and informative, ive got a ton of screenshots and pics ready to go up.

Here's a little info on the N8 boot failure
Customer complains about Power symptom and description is that Phone does not switch on or Charging doesn't work. Battery might be so empty, that to get charging started, takes some time. That issue may happen already in devices taken from sales package or in normal usage.
Charge the phone before trying to start it. Note that when charging starts it may take several minutes before anything is seen on the screen.
In some cases charging does not start immediately when user first time connects charger to phone. If that happens, user should disconnect the charger and try again. Try both types of charger connections (Normal DC plug and uUSB)
Check the you can see light on a charging led. If light is seen, then charging works properly
