3.5mm jack or not, thats not the problem nor is 7 month after Satio hit the streets...
Hardware wise, the chipset is almost the same, mere 80Mhz difference is like going on 133 mhz to 166 mhz FSB giving 2.0 GHZ and 2.1 GHZ

The basic hardware that runs the software between Satio and N8 is really not much different even after 7 + months!

The big issue here is the OS!

Symbian is now OPEN source, open source like Android where apps are really cross platform, HTC / Samsung / Moto can run the same bloody app.

But this is not yet the case for Symbian camp, with out hacking, Nokia apps can't be run cross platform.
Still Few third party apps officially support Satio...

WE should be allow to use Nokia apps on our open source symbian phone.
WE should be able to load a version of SE's Symbian ^3 OS on the Satio.

In fact, all they need is to throw ^3 in Satio and add HD function plus improve camera control to compete with N8!

The K800, the most successful camera phone ever (and in its mega pixel class) continues to sell well after a year of its launch. Same goes with the N95, or even the buggy N73, this clearly meant there is life long after 12 months. Satio is not a fail product hardware wise, Software draged it down, fix the software, it will be a great smart camera phone!

It was promised that the Satio will be between first Open Souce symbians... So i expect an OS upgrade, but i doubt SE will let us have it. There is so much juice left in the Satio, and SE is not using it :/
The Satio microphone is a big piece of crap.. nothing compared to C905.. (video recording). Not to mention the media player... total failure (well if not total, major).
So i wait for a proper OS upgrade.

SE will never upgrade the OS..........never. They will launch another device to compete, that is simply how it is done. The Satio is done and dusted, there will be very few updates if any for satio going forward. They have left it with shortcomings but if their next device addresses these then an upgrade will be the only path, if the satio was perfect there would be no need for an upgrade path and SE business would stall, the bugs have been ironed out the device is now stable.

i would be very shocked i if the satio has no further updates . Its only had 2 and the 1st only happened because retailers pulled it. Whats the normal amount of upgrades with se ? Totally agree that we will of never see the new os . It makes no financial sense. Have to say this is the 1st nokia ive liked and thats probably because it doesnt look like one lol

The Satio will receive firmware updates and they will be quite substantial. This is because the Vivaz is new and will be supported very well during the first 6 months. Since the Satio & Vivaz firmware are nearly the same there is no reason why Sony Ericsson won't update the Satio with whatever the Vivaz gets!

BTW: The N8 is better than the Satio, but I don't think Symbian^3 is great. It will however bring better things for the Satio such as more Open GL games and better applications that use the phone's hardware.

Same with the X10, the video resolution is great but the mic is terrible muted mono, the c905 stereo mic was fantastic wasn't it! Unfortunately on that phone the video resolution was crap.

The C905 microphone is one of the bests on market(maybe history),can't be compared...
In Satio is good too but i think it's just firmware issue...

lolololol Yes its not fair comparison since satio is a 2009 phone and this is not out yet. I preffer satio design over this n8 but satio software and resistive touch screen will make me sell it and buy n8... or other similar phone... i dont care if its nokia or SE

I prefer a sony Ericsson device... Nokia support here sucks a lot !
Here Sony Ericsson have a great support(for the owner)!If your cellphone are problematic and service center don't know what to do,they will send to you a new phone !

Well...based on the specs of n8, satio will be no matched for it.
I really hate nokia phones but when I heard and read about this n8, it made me wow!.

If you are going to base on the specs, it has many features that satio doesn't have.

for example in Connectivity

* Bluetooth 3.0
* HDMI
* 2mm Charging connector
* Micro USB connector and charging
* High-Speed USB 2.0 (micro USB connector)
o USB On-the-Go
* 3.5 mm AV connector

It has more than what the satio have, and the satio has only two things better than n8 the smile shutter and the touch focus.

This is only my opinion ^_^v
