Im familiar with S60, but since the touchscreen version is fairly new in terms of its lifespan there isnt a great deal of software about. Moreso with the Satio being a SE. Just like Samsung the Satio will have fewer apps made for it than Nokia S60 devices.

As SEE09 ends (see
www.symbian.org) I do wonder if anything really interesting came out of it for S60v5 as it stands.
No developers used the event to launch any amazing new apps.
SE didn't appear to say anything about the Satio or future plans.
Symbian were talking about the next generation, with some mention of making it easier for developers to get stuff on sale - but what developers are interested in S60 anymore?
Besides Epocware supporting it, with incredibly overpriced (IMHO) applications and a few other essentials, there's really nothing much out there.
Did I miss anything?

Yes, I'd say so.
We'll know more on November 3rd when SE is likely to announce its first Android effort and, from the specs circulating for some time, it looks like it's going to be something very special indeed.
If and when SE makes an Android phone with a 12MP camera and Xenon flash, plus perhaps HD video recording, I reckon they'll have nailed it. At the moment, Android suffers because HTC (the biggest player now) has no idea on cameras - from poor sensors, camera UI and lack of LED lamps - and Samsung and Motorola are still not quite there. The other problem is the lack of most Bluetooth profiles.
Android 2 fixes the Bluetooth issues, and when we get the new hi-res screens and features next year, I think Android will be near unstoppable. Not even webOS will compete, although it may do well Stateside or if Palm gets some good looking devices on the market next year.
From what I hear, the keynotes at SEE were really poorly attended and the show gets smaller each year. Symbian is dying and I am so disappointed that nothing seems to be happening to fix it, and quickly. I really don't believe that much needs to be done.
If I wasn't so busy with other things, I'd love to write a list of what I think Symbian needs to do to drastically improve its S60v5 platform without having to re-write everything (save that for the next Symbian Foundation OS). Symbian can be saved, and Nokia's V2 firmware for the N97 is a step in the right direction; but Nokia won't even be sharing this with anyone else.
Nokia will be the death of Symbian, mark my words.

The new hype for Rachael is crazy
Peopel tend to forget it will be a very big phone because of the 4.1'' screen and a FAT phone because of the hardware keypad
