Yeah interesting indeed. To sum up SE WONT be using UIQ with their new hw. Only Moto may bring out some but otherwise UIQ is dead in the water.
So what happened to all those rumors that the P series is not dead? Unless the next P is going to run on WM id say its pretty dead to me.
Whats the latest on hecaro?lol
He does however go on to say that they will be using essentially S60 in upcoming phones but we wont see anything until maybe this time next year. He also points to the crap rumors we have been fed on here.

"On launch of the Symbian foundation, which is expected in the first half of 2009, all contributed assets will be available under the foundation’s royalty-free license. Device manufacturers will be shipping devices based on the foundation’s assets from launch of the foundation.
A new platform is then to be formed from Symbian OS and S60 with selected UIQ and MOAP(S) technologies integrated."

Seems like we don't have to wait 2 years then...

Eomer just said over on MR that we would probably see some new SE's using the new HW and UI this time next year. There is some waiting to do but im sure in the long run it will be worth it.

They'll use an UI that is basically S60 until the SymFound OS is ready.

So we can expect P(next) with S60 next year then?

Yeah looks like it. He didnt say S60 though he said essentially S60 so take from that what you will. But he also said it will have decent specs to get you all here drooling. So good times ahead but its still a bit of a wait.
Dont assume it will be P series. Who knows if it will even be touch screen.

Not if you're using Nokia. I have serious doubts that this would be the case for SE.

I think after all the crap we have had to put up with over the years this is the best thing that could have happened for SE. They are going to use new hardware and they will be using the most popular software. Its a win win situation for us all.

Yes but SE using S60 possibly without touch screen means nothing to me.
