Living with a 41-megapixel 808 PureView: Symbian's heroic last stand

Thumb Up

Love the 808

If social networking is for you fMobi is the best facebook client out there on any platform

if the stock music player isn't for you QuasarMX is for you as good/better than anything you'll find on android

the stock internet browser has become extremely responsive and fluid over the last few updates (which didnt indicate a browser update but hey it runs worlds better on my phone)

I would like to move to android mind you not because symbian is bad but because everything else is guaranteed to continue to advance. While Symbian is certainly getting updates and not just bug fixes its future isn't guaranteed anymore so yes I am waiting to move to Android when a sufficient product comes out to meed my needs and when Symbian doesn't do it for me anymore although for now its doing it just fine

Rovio: Actually there will be Angry Birds Space on Windows Phone

hold our breath?

why should people have to hold their breath for a symbian "port" ??? when all previous angry birds have been on symbian... and space was advertised for symbian too

Dumb salesmen are hurting us – Nokia CEO

Meh

No

Symbian was still outselling android and ios worldwide up until Elops "leaked" letter and premature announcement of its death

Since that moment sales began to shrink and fall while Androids/iOS continued to rise (platform jumpers?)

Symbian is more than capable of keeping Android @ bay and Maemo (aka Harmattan found in the N9) is more than capable of surpassing even Symbian

The problem is SElop and the incompetent BoD @ Nokia

They could have easily picked up WP7 as another alternative until WP shows if it can be successful before announcing an end to your 2 successful OS's and worldwide #1 OS

There would be no reason to pick up Android when Android is just a cheap copy of Maemo
