Why have a headline of "Nokia 808 Pureview to Hit UK Next Week" when by your own admission it is only the current date slated by Amazon - up until yesterday they had June 21st as the date. Stop reporting things as fact in your headline and taking people unnecessarily to your site.

For all who still don't understand the pureview concept:


And a blind test ( Nokia 808 PureView (8MP PureView mode), HTC One X, iPhone 4S, Samsung Galaxy S III, Nokia N8 (downsampled from 12MP to 8MP) and Olympus E-PL2 interchangable lens, large sensor camera (downsampled from 12MP to 8MP))

This WOULD be a nice phone if it didn't have the dying / dead symbian OS in it. Now give me 720p resolution and at least 32GBs of space preferably Meego as an OS or even Android will do. That would be the perfect phone...

There's a reason for every decision made, and you clearly did not read the news article on Tom's sometime back - they said they wanted to first try out the concept on a Symbian phone. Nokia has 10+ years of experience on Symbian while they have less than 2 years of experience on WP7. Of course they'd stick with their tried and true platform to test out the waters first.
