What Darren Said.
Yes, it's surprising how many otherwise-clued people confuse the OS with the UI. This is probably not the time or place for a resume of why S60 is shite but, what the hell, I'm bored.
- Access point control. People with laptops are used to setting up authorised access points and connecting to them pretty-much automatically. With S60 you have to either set a single access point or set each app to "always ask". Truphone's excellent and tiny VoIP-assist app includes a little 'priority list' of APs, which includes a dotted line above which APs connect automatically and below which they "always ask". Why can't S60 have something similar? Worst case scenario is streaming via RealPlayer, which takes you down through no fewer than SEVEN menu layers every time you realise you're on a different AP from the last time you used it: tools - settings - applications - RealPlayer - streaming - network - default access point.
- Anyway, why are RealPlayer streams part of Gallery and not in the music folder?
- PIM apps. Why, years after Psions, when hardware and memory are so much cheaper than they were, are the PIM apps so crap? They haven't significantly changed since the 3650. Try setting "the third Saturday of every month" in the default calendar and you'll see what I mean.
- No html support in the messaging app.
etc, etc...
I have to admit I have no experience of UIQ but if the Z8 had had WiFi I definitely would have given it a try.
