Hi there,

I upgraded my N800 from OS2007 to OS2008. Now the power button acts 
differently. I used to be able to hold down the power button to shut 
down, now holding the button dims the screen, but it undims after I 
release the power button. I can still shutdown my N800, but I have to 
pres the power button and then choose to "Power Off: or"Soft poweroff".

Is this normal behavior in OS2008?

BTW, what's the difference between the last two options when pressing 
the power button ("soft power off" and "switch off")?

Thanks,
Jason
