Who the hell thought that was a good ringtone?

A ringtone should be a ringing tone, not a poor man's club mix.

I'm thinking of getting the 808 as well for the camera although I was also considering the N9. My concern about the 808 was if it can beat a normal P&S camera in image quality as well as providing good cell phone service

The N9 is mostly for its free software setup (although I have a N800 so I'm somewhat biased there) and that it uses micro SIM so I could my iPhone 4 SIM with no problem.

The 808 uses a micro sim and is pentaband 3G.

I knew about pentaband but not that it was micro sim

Is micro sim widely used outside the iPhone 4/s and N9 & soon the 808? At least the adapters are cheap.

Those microsim adapters are literally two for a dollar I don't understand how that could make an impact in your purchasing decision LOL

It doesn't make much a difference but my concern was over how many phones and carriers use micro sim. I was under the impression it was only a few and I didn't want to be restricted. I was more concerned about getting a phone that wasn't locked down by carrier or ecosystem.

On a related note, is anyone interested in buying my black 16GB Nokia N9 in superb 9.8/10 condition? Could cut you guys a good deal on it. I have to remain on Sprint since it is $30 less per month than AT&T for more features and true unlimited data. I'll post a sale thread in SA-Mart shortly.
I might be interested too

I went ahead and purchased a N9 to replace my stolen unlocked phone. Is there anything I should be aware of with it that hasn't been covered in any reviews?
