    Wow, didn't realise it had been that long already; no not heard anything from them. To be honest expected more surveys - had maybe one at the beginning, apart from the pop up ones on the phone.

    Hi all

    Just incase you have the same problem as me with your free n8, I have a solution for you.
    If the phone doesn't give you a txt alert when they come through, try deleting some of the sms in the inbox.
    I had over 4000 as I hadn't deleted them since receiving it from Neilson. This was due to me using conversations instead of the usual inbox.
    I deleted 3000 of them and this resolved the problem.

    how are you going with your N8's??
    Have you received many surveys? I have just emailed them asking why I haven't received any.

    I had a pop up survey asking why I hadn't updated the phone. I haven't had an update!

    You prob need to check it is auto sending them the updates (their software).

    Applications/ 360Meter should say status Active last upload (within 24hours).

    I reckon this might be what they mean.

    E7 programme's shipping next week (only know that cos the DHL shipment info got sent out by Sumbio accidentally!) - that blew my big plan of buying an iPhone or Android... saved me a few quid tho!
    The thanks button is here to the right. If you find a post saves you money, gives you useful information, or you agree with it, take a second to thank the poster! :)

    have not the Nokia said they stopped developing symbian? they are going towards the WP7 instead?
    I dont think Nokia put any more into its R&D and customer feedback thingy.

    Sorry to high-jack thread. I'm buying an N8 on 3 but would like to unlock to use my O2 sim.

    Is this possible?

    Can the N8 be unlocked?

    Thanks
