Back to mobile. Anyone using Nokia S60 device probably agree that there is something wrong with the software. There has been some speculation in the mobile industry that Nokia would abandon Symbian and move to another OS like Linux. Now there is some more evidence as “Sources close to Nokia say that Symbian is secretly regarded inside the company – even among high level senior executives – as a “peace-of-shit-OS” in an article titled: Readers Write About Symbian, OS X and the iPhone.
While speculating on this I found an article from All About Symbian including interesting facts about what went wrong with N-Gage and what is different in Nokia’s second attempt with Next Gen gaming platform: Nokia Next Gen: Learning the lessons from N-Gage.
Enough of mobile and IT; the next few posts will be about marketing, space and Dubai.
