I've recently been considering getting the Nokia N8, I've seen it on what I think is a pretty good deal @£10pm with the phone being free. What caught my attention on this phone is the great camera and hd video recording. We've recently had a baby and it would be great to just have the phone handy for all those moments you what to capture and keep, I do already have a Panasonic TA-1 hd camcorder, and a digital camera, however this phone seems better than both these items (the 12 meg camera is def better that my current camera) and would mean not having to carry so many devices around. It would also replace my htc wildfire as my main mobile. My only concern is a that most reviews for the N8 either say it brilliant or rubbish. I already have an android phone and an iPad so I'm fully aware of the situation of these devices with regards to apps and usability. I'm guessing the N8 isn't quite at the same level. Tbh I don't really use a great deal of apps on my android phone, it would be nice if I could access Facebook, twitter, hotmail, web etc on the N8, can it upload photos to my google account ? How is it for podcasts ?

Any users care to offer a comment ?
