Iphone 4 user changing to Nokia N8 , can it work

Question

hi
Ive had an iphone 4 for a year now, an iphone 3g a year before that.
every phone i had before that was a nokia.
when the N8 came out i thought it was overpriced, but now prices are more attreactive.
My N8 arrives 3 days ago.
it looks mint, the camera is brill, using the phone is ok.
then im struggling.
i hope APPLE ( blast them) havent made the iphone so good, so easy to use that my nokia days are over before they have begun.
major things im struggling with the N8
1) battery life ( whats the point of having a widget facility if it just drains the battery and ruins the experience)
2) FLASH .  I know the iphone doesnt use this, but youdont realise how many sites you cant access with nokia default or opera browser on the n8.
3) WIDGETS, as above, whats the point of having a petrol guzzling car that does top speeds if you dont want to spend the money to run the thing.
it just seems idiotic to me, bang in loads of facilities , but it doesnt matter that they are not practical.
4) universal support for all apps.
years ago when a computer game was released, the same title would be on, zx spec, c 64, amstrad, etc, now it seem as though the s60 is an afterthought and not priority.
Things im living with.
1) the camera, no need to say any more
2) email, messaging, the phone all ok.
3) ovi store, i find this easier than android market.
4) 48gb of memory
5) qwerty keyboard is nice to use
overall im a bit worried.
i was planning to sell my iphone 4 to generate some much needed cash, but im just not sure.
im not bothered about every bell and whistle.
there  are some standards though in life that are hard to live without now
e.g
dyson
subway
costa
tomtom
google maps
ebay
i really hopw apple is not on the list over nokia, it would be a shame.

There really isnt much that Android or iPhone can do that Nokia cant, but the main difference is the ease of how you do it on Android/iPhone, and the integration of all your services. Plus the number of apps you can choose from to do that thing. That alone (competition among developers) is what makes Android apps so much better than Symbian apps. Competition breeds innovation and development. Seriously, the Symbian versions of some Android/iOS apps just plain suck (see official Facebook app as example).
For example. Tweetdeck doesnt have a Symbian app. Sure I can use Socially app instead (different from Social) to do some of what Tweetdeck does, but Tweetdeck does it better, not to mention the familar interface since I also use it on my laptop. I have almost seamless transition from my primary Android phone (I still use Symbian on my other phone as I maintain two networks) to my PC and vice versa, making it easier for me.
As I said before, its not exactly Symbian that's the problem. Its the absence of interest from developers because its more difficult to create apps for Symbian than Android, and the interface was limited. Not to mention that Android and Apple marketing was way better than Nokia. Some people even think that the iPhone was the first smartphone just due to incredible marketing. Nokia will have to catch up using the WP7 ecosystem, which is probably the last bet they have.
