If Nokia comes up with a touch screen it will definitely be on my list of devices to check. I'm not even considering the P1, it will probably be between WM6 devices, Nokia and Motorola touch screen devices and the P990 successor. But I will not be an early adapter that is for sure.

Hi all
The touchscreen device will be launched next year and will be a S60 device with all that brings and i still think the most interesting part of today's announcement's was not the new devices but Nokia's new strategy involving OVI this is really ground breaking stuff IMO and far more exciting them either the Music store or the N Gage platform IMHO.

Huh, while the rest of the market was 'static' Nokia shares jumped 6,5% up yesterday ! Now is at a record 32usd, a price not seen since the 2000/01 internet bubble

The rumors of Nokia becoming a second Microsoft before 2010 are getting 'heavier'. Anyone als dealing in shares/monitoring the cell market can pm me for 'exchange of opinion/ideas'. Such huge jumps in share price makes me feel 'uneasy'. Shall I sell or shall I not? This is the question - .

@Dogmann, touch screen on S60 is a new experiment for Nokia. I wouldn't want to be a guinea pig like with the P990. But it is a move in the right direction. They will either get it right eventually or force SE to get their act together. Either way it is a win-win scenario for us.
With Nokia's continuous support policy, it would probably be less of a risk if their hardware and build quality are of an acceptable level.

Yes I can access the terminal, its an app called ekonsole, I can telnet to it, I can run scripts and now a chap from thailand has compiled a basic SDK for it. The UI is old I agree but its amazing for a programmer. I can also backup restore my address book, emails messages from my SD card whcih is extremely important to me. The calender is so-so I agree. What I meant is not ti incorporate the EZX interface but keep it opensource based on Linux lol

New Experiment? Are you kidding me? You OBVIOUSLY are NOT aware of the 1.6yrs developement of S90 platform of teh Nokia 7700 & 7710! Also you're not aware of the only UIQ3 product just launched this year (roughly February). Nokia has PLENTY of experience with Touchscreen ... and considering how well the pulled off S60 3RD Edition I'll be MORE than HAPPY to be a guinea pig with their Touchscreen S60 device next year. BTW, the 7710 also had the ability for touchscreen dialpad, you should look it up.

Hmm glad to see somebody has been doing some progress; but how EASY is it to implement to a non hacker/linux user?? Platform is still too immature for me. Motorola keeps changing iterations of the mobile Linux platform to gain my confidence or trust atm. EZX was LONG ago passed. MontaVista Software was the more recent devices since the Moto A768. There was some press release about a month ago that they've contracted with another company to implement a newer version of Linux thats already first seen in the Z6 Rokr; and an SDK. Not some hacker, that found it all on his own.
Great devices but still form factor leaves something to be missed. I'd like to see N81's tech in the N77 but N95's video accelerator.

Oh and for others like Makbil that wish to see how Nokia's style of Symbian OS touchscreen is like ....
http://www.planete-nokia.com/phpBB2/index.php?showtopic=15621&hl=
^ lots of good screenshots and size comparisons. See where teh Nokia N800/770 heritage comes from? lol - although they're using Linux.
* Nokia has NOT been sitting around picking their noses watching Ericsson/SE work with UIQ. They've too been playing watching & learning.
