Thats just an excuse.. all software DO have bugs, but bugs that are visible to an end-user after a few days (hours in the case of Nokia) are just completely unacceptable.

Here's an example of a Nokia "bug":
after PR1.2, if you get an incoming phone call (and you have phone mode set to Portrait - the default mode) then the screen will blank out and the answer button moves causing the user to be unable to answer the call.

Acceptable bug while in development cycle, complete F-UP when seen by end-users..

BTW, if the n8 camera is as good as it looks in 'real life' usage, it will sell like hotcakes in Europe, Asia. Camera priority users will care less about a crappy OS
