NOKIA N8 POSTPONED TO NOVEMBER BY SOFTWARE PROBLEM

These coming weeks if you’re eager to get your hands on this much-anticipated touchscreen Nokia, your dreams will be purged. The much-hyped about Symbian^3 phone has been pushed back a few weeks back to October while Nokia makes “some final amends.”
Here’s the full statement:
“The amount of pre-orders has exceeded our expectations and we are working hard to deliver the Nokia N8 to the market. In some markets, we had planned to start delivering the Nokia N8s to our pre-order customers by the end of September. To ensure a great user experience, we have decided to hold the shipments for a few weeks to do some final amends. We’re thrilled with the response that we’ve had to the Nokia N8 and assure everyone who has pre-ordered it already that it’ll be worth the wait! We expect consumers to get their Nokia N8s during October.”
For what it’s worth, Nokia mentioned during Nokia World last week that the N8 is seeing strong pre-order demand – the strongest ever for a Nokia device, allegedly – so this is likely to bum out a lot of folks, and for a few, it might even be just the impetus they needed to hold out for the upcoming E7. Well the good news is that some rumours have been flocking around that the delay will peg till November, so be glad that you don’t really have to wait till that long.
