> SE dropping symbian
Bookmark topic
I've always said that SE should completely drop Symbian and haven't changed my mind. SE sees itself as a premium manufacturer and Nokia dealt them a blow by going low to mid-end with Symbian meaning SE can't make high-end Symbian phones as they already have their A-platform for low to mid-end phones.
SE will eventually dump the os if they haven't already.

I agree with the dumping SE more than Symbian.
Its like they just dont want to be the best in the market, or even come close to being near the middle. SE seem to enjoy being the failing underdogs.

+1 Dups. There's no point in sticking with an OS that even devs. have rejected, and looking at Nokia's Symbian^3 line-up, im glad i didnt wait.

My eldest brother & sister in law last week had a go at trying a touch Symbian Nokia for the first time. They BOTH wanted to throw it out the window by the end of the day. Need I say more................

People are always negative about Symbian phones when they've never tried one before. Thats what happens when you come from a basic phone, to an advanced smartphone. Its a natural reaction for any none tech-head.

Yes but put yourself in the average consumers position. If you were using Symbian for the first time & it's not user friendly people will look elsewhere.

No, but it has 500mb mem and apps store their data in the mem card, so thats not a problem.
Bluetooth on X10:
Send
Recieve:
Sends and recieving is fast, im not sure about 2.1, AFAIK, it has it already.
Is this possible with x10 mini too? What kind of application do you use? My friend bought an X10 mini, and uses Bluetoot file transfer application, but it's quite uncomfortable...

I never found it to be that way when i first used it.
I think its just a case of joe average's stupidity. I honestly believe the human race is not as intelligent as it believes it is. So, not only does it relate to adopting a new mobile phone interface, but to everything in life in general. I find myself frustrated and annoyed at people on a daily basis, moreso because i run my own business. I often get quite angry at just how stupid some of my customers are.
I dont think Symbian is hard to use at all. In fact i think its far easier to use than some manufacturers none-smartphone interfaces. Motorola phones for example, i can remember years ago when i picked up my friends Z3 Razr, i couldnt figure out how to do anything on it. At least Symbian use the correct English text labels for a function.
My frustrations continue with my girlfriends Samsung Wave, lovely phone, but so hard to learn to use. Symbian is intuitive, but people are lazy and ignorant.

I see it as an experiment, when they started in this smart phone market with WM and progressed to symbian and android. Then they see which is doing the best and what's pointless to hold on to. Clearly android range of X10 is doing very well which is no surprise considering the success of android.
SE smart phones are still terrible, once I upgrade from my K850i, I want an android phone, but the X10 is crap, when compared with the knowledge and expertise in building android smart phones from the likes of HTC.
