dammit I want that but with a keyboard like my N900 ( yes I still use that phone and I love it) as I hate touch keyboards!

I'd say "give it a try", especially that they've improved a lot . I was in your shoes once and I used to hate touch keyboards too. I bought the Xperia X10 and it was a horrible experience. I was kinda bummed that I couldn't find any decent new smartphone with a keyboard that fits me, so I went back and stuck with the n97 . I regret that cuz I type a lot faster on my iPhone now and it didn't take long to get used to it either. New Android phones/Windows phones all have great touch keybaords. Give it a second try :)

but I have an iphone as well but don't use it that much as I press the wrong buttons if I type fast

Do you have auto-corrections on? It helps if you miss a letter in each word.... Or Try phones with bigger screens!

but then it writes the wrong words :P

 

lol i'll just use my N900 as it can do everything I want and more

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT AND MORE, TAKE MY PHONES!

I just read that this video ( http://video.golem.de/audio-video/9144/nokia-pureview-the-next-innovation-trailer.html ) they made to advertise the lumia 920's video stabilizer (OIS) is a fake (at 27secs into the video you can spot in a reflection of a window that it's shot with a film camera from a van)

Nokia posted an apology and a real video of OIS in action http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/09/06/an-apology-is-due/ - still good, but not quite as impressive

See what competition brings to the table? Well done MS and Nokia.

It looks nice but the customization options are lacking just like the Iphone which is why I prefer android.

At the moment the app store is weak my friends Lumia 900 didnt even have Instagram.

The 900 fells great though has some weight and feels well built. It will be tough for windows to become competitive in the mobile phone market but def possible they have endless money, sadly I dont think Nokia will survive. If this phone isnt a big hit they are in trouble.

Looks great as does Samsung Focus S Ativ. Lets see what HTC brings to the table. 5+ inch Titan III maybe?

As someone currently rocking a Samsung Focus S (Galaxy SII running Windows phone 7.5) I really don't have a reason to upgrade just yet, especially with the new homescreen coming that will make it look just like Win 8. Everything I need to do this phone does...

Info behind the glove technology!

 

For the nerds among us, finding how stuff works has been a never-ending adventure. The demos of the Super Sensitive Touch technology on the newly announced Nokia Lumia 920 and 820 were really impressive in their own right. Operating touchscreens with a nail or even with a glove on seems amazing. But it’s even more interesting to see how they made that possible.

The secret behind it is Synaptics new ClearPad capacitive touchscreen sensing technology. It’s actually the latest development in the Synaptics ClearPad Series 3 portfolio, which has been around for quite some time now. In fact, ClearPad Series 3 touch technology has already been implemented in top smartphones such as the HTC One X or the Sony Xperia P.

But the Lumias use an even more advanced version – the Synaptics ClearPad 3250. As the latest in the ClearPad Series 3 portfolio, this innovative product allows the new Lumias’ screens to automatically recognize bare skin, gloves or fingernails and the controller optimizes the touch configuration accordingly on the fly.  

The ClearPad 3250 touch sensor is integrated directly within the display cell thus making for a package that’s not only extremely thin, but also one that has a signal strength up to three times more powerful than those of other available products. Synaptics SignalClarity technology also reportedly provides robust performance even in the presence of electrical noise, moisture, and temperature variations. The ClearPad 3250 touch interface used in the new Lumias offers up to 10 finger full-time tracking and fast refresh rates. It can even support stylus input with automatic stylus/finger disambiguation.

But that aside, you would be amazed to know that this same technology is available to manufactures of bigger devices such as Windows 8 tablets, too. It’s called ClearPad Series 7 and there’s no doubt that it won’t be long before we see it on this sort of devices as well.

In case I’ve got you intrigued in the technology hidden behind your phone’s touchscreen, you can download some of Synaptics TouchExplorer – an Android app for touch testing and give it go for the pure nerdy fun of it.

So why is this not a hit with investors?

Cause they didn't announce a release date, price and more Windows Phone 8 specifics...

It is too heavy, and looks glossy compared to a n9 or lumia 900. I still like the design though. I'd consider one if the price is low enough. Buying and selling phones has become a hobby for me lol.
