I'm not surprised considering the blitz it had created in the market when it was launched. Samsung almost own the cell phone market now, other companies are trying very hard to catch up with them. With the Nexus S launch, they have only made it harder for other companies. Its quite surprising how Nokia which was at the top 2-3 years ago have almost stumbled on at the bottom. But the N8 has given them the much needed morale boost.
