The very lucky person who wins will be included in a scene in a bedroom (no no dont even think about anything like that!) but still they are one VERY VERY lucky person.
Of course once I heard about this I got my name straight down on that list to stand a chance to win, and if you would also like the chance to win just check http://www.starwithpam.com/
This version of the 5230 comes with 12 months unlimited music downloads available as a code in the box which can be used on the OVI Music service either on the handset or on a Windows computer.
OVI Music is the new name for what was once called Comes With Music and what will be interesting is if the 5230 is on Pay As You Go with the voucher or if this is limited to contract only like the 5800 was on T-Mobile a while back.

Ah so now you remember the music I was talking about. Well over on Facebook where there is a fan page set up for the N8, someone has downloaded the track and converted it to MP3 so you can have your very own Nokia N8 ringtone (at least until the real phone comes out).
The download is an MP3 so you can set on most phones if you like.

This was backed up by an image of the google ad which does indeed state in stock and ready to ship on the 23rd.
No price has been leaked yet but the estimated price going on rumors and other stores current price is £419.99 and will also be available in a wide range of colours.
The Nokia N8 expected to be available to pre-order in the UK direct from Nokia within the next few days so if you are like me and itching to get your hands on the 12MP with Xenon powerhouse best keep checking for availability and get your order in quickly

This seems to back up the message we were sent a few days ago where a customer of O2 was tild they can get the N8 from the 6th October.
Check back on this page later today for an image confirming this information but it looks like the Nokia N8 is confirmed on O2 for the first week of October!.
Part of me thinks this is a misprint and the price will change to around £389.97 but if this is true and the N8 can be purchased for under £300 then expect Tesco to sell out VERY quickly!
No other network has of yet stated a launch date for the N8 with Vodafone showing it as coming soon with no month, O2 do not have it anywhere on their site neither do Orange and T-Mobile have it as coming soon but again no month listed.
The N8 is expected to go on sale the last week of September or the first week of October depending where you look and how you want to buy.
Stay tuned for any news about the N8 and Nokia World next month right here
