RIP Symbian... I guess it's rather fitting that I also happen to be retiring my S60 3rd phone right now... it was a good run.

such a pity to see such a capable platform go to the dogs. i've witnessed nokia's pass from the user oriented OS to WP's dictatorship. The C6 that I traded in for Lumia 800, makes me feel like passing from the forest to a prison where only some moves are allowed. This is the moment Nokia should have learned that it takes that extra mile to make something work, not just outsource it and seek for an easier solution. If they keep doing business like this, I don't see them good in the long run.
