Seems like Elop is nowhere to be found...can we expect a miracle? Or it's just another conspiracy for global number 1 to be swallowed by microsoft? Hmmm... Number 1 has got to seriously wake the fxxx up!

      [deleted post]I wouldn't say IOS is better than Symbian either. It's "better" for the 99.5% of the population which happens to be computer illiterate... The kind of people who wouldn't know/care about RSS feeds, file management, multitasking, home screen widgets, getting music from somewhere other than itunes, bluetooth file transfer, encryption, etc, etc...

          2 months ago i was a big fan of apple just because of applications i was dreaming that how lucky people are who use iphone but but suddenly my mind changed when my brother has bought an ipod 4g and how much problems he has to face, he can't download nothing from internet not a single song except from itunes and itunes is very expensive when connect with computer it starts syncroniz itself.. Oh my God! what the big problem with iOS! No bluetooth is there!! Yes there are applications a lot of applications but only applications all other door are closed.. I don't know how will be the android i've still not used android but after 6 months i will buy galaxy s ii otherwise i had planned to buy iphone 4g.. In some way i love iOS but for me it does not suitable.. Still i'm using symbian and i totally have symbian the worst OS on the earth, full of problems. IOS is thousand time better than symbian...

                    AnonD-171, 18 Mar 2011that's not what 200+ million said about symbianSo your the representative of 200 million people ??
                    At least half of android users (including me) were previously nokia users. So you can keep your "200 million happy symbian users" theory with yourself.

                        AnonD-4068, 18 Mar 2011Lol Symbian is long forgotten ahaahhMore than 4 million downloads/day is hardly forgotten.
                        Ovi is the third biggest appstore by revenue(Apple and RiM is bigger).
                        It's would also be in third place on that chart around 35000apps.

                          Good to hear that Android Market is catching in terms of numbers of apps, I'm currently using Android phone and seriously I'm actually fine with all the apps ones I've downloaded at least, I have an iPhone 3GS too and the bunch of apps I've download on my 3GS and Android are pretty much the same bunch of apps so I don't mind how many apps both the store has as long as it has things I need than I'm fine, it's not like I'm gonna download every single app in the store
