Reply With QuoteI don't what the big deal is with Symbian (I've never seen it) - can anyone clue me in? It just seems to be the new kid on the block (just like Palm OS was in the day). I'm hoping most of these toy operating systems die off within the next few years.Originally Posted by AdmiralAK
Let them buy palmsource - now with the power of linux lol. They will have PalmOS, beOS and Linux OS licenses- If they buy nokia they control 40% of Symbian - kinda cool

There are the Series 80 and Series 90 interfaces that are closed off and only used in certain symbian smartphones. UIQ and Series 60 phones are found in GSM, wCDMA and FOMA networks around the world
Symbian is not going away anytime soon. <<------------------------------>>

Apple should partner up with XM Satelitte Radio and integrate it into their iPods. An iPod with satellite radio would be awesome.
