The top names in film, art, and tech, and anyone interested in videoblogging or filmmaking are going to be at the Vimeo Festival/Awards in New York City this weekend. If you click on the sponsors page, you’ll see the Nokia N8 on top of the page!

A hacker by the name of hyperX claims to have modified the camera on the Nokia N8 to add 30 frames per second recording (versus the default 25fps) and continuous autofocus.

Here’s the Nokia N8 Ad That Will Broadcast in the UK Tomorrow
Nokia UK just uploaded an updated version of the Nokia N8 ad which will begin to broadcast tomorrow evening during X Factor. The 40-second ad’s message is “It’s not technology, it’s what you do with it.” I definitely like this edited version than the previous one, because the new ad actually shows the Nokia N8 smartphone front and center.
Nokia N8 3G Speed Test: AT&T vs T-mobile USA
The Nokia N8 supports WCDMA 850/900/1700/1900/2100. This means consumers in the USA can insert their AT&T or T-mobile SIM cards and enjoy fast 3G internet speeds. To confirm this works, I tested both SIM cards for a speed test. Take a look at the results.
