Itching to get some hands-on time with Symbian^3? Or perhaps it’s the promise of a 12 megapixel camera that’s drawing you? Whatever the case is likely to be, you’re interested to understand that Nokia’s US outpost is now able to take your name down for an N8 with availability expected at the ” end of September 2010.” Before, Nokia has often bundled goodies like Bluetooth headsets for anyone willing to pre-order well earlier than time, but not so much this time around — $549 will net you the phone, and that’s it. Heck, they’re not even throwing in free shipping. Maybe looking forward to the actual release isn’t that bad of an concept, eh?
