I've been in the game since 1988 and seen more handset launches than many people - and, having seen the Idou twice now (with or without the name change), I'm not naive enough to believe that the software engineers will manage to speed things up in the next few months (the phone ships in week 40, so they've only got until then!).
Seriously; I've used the 5800 and it's slow and clunky. I've used the N97 and that's going to be a disappointment. Samsung's i8910 HD looked impressive - but only one network in the UK seemed to take any interest, which means the others all rejected it. So, what does that say? That S60 isn't the best basis for a new touchscreen UI (even SE has taken its own proprietary OS and made that touchscreen, so that's quite telling).
Okay, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and wait (what else can I do!) but I am not expecting the Satio to suddenly turn the world upside down and have everyone going wild. Who cares if the processor is being used in other devices? They've obviously got more optimised code - just look at how quick a Mac runs OS X with an Intel processor compared to a PC trying to run Vista.
And here speaks a major SE fan - so I'm not saying this because I'm going to say SE sucks and recommend a Nokia. Nokia is in the exact same boat, using old hardware and an OS that needs a major overhaul. To be honest, I'd be putting my support behind their ordinary user interface than S60 5th Edition for the time being, and the other two devices have a great deal of potential - especially Aino, thanks to the traditional keypad.
The Symbian Foundation OS was meant to be the next big step, but now we're not getting it (even though the press release says otherwise). I can only hope that they are totally mistaken and between now and release day, they'll swap the UI for the new one - but will that really happen??

This actually looks really good to me though am disappointed that they've not included the Media Home concept from Aino (application that pulls media content from Media Go™ on your PC over Wi-Fi™ to your phone automatically), the Remote Play functionality (this would have been awesome!) and, most importantly for me, omitted DLNA (or at least have mentioned it - bizare as most Symbian phones are DLNA certified now
).
Did anyone notice this has gesture control?... "Silence the call or alarm simply by moving your hand across the camera lens" ... sounds interesting, though hope there are other applications for it!

I picked up on it because you said the processor is slow which it is not.
Anyway the Sat Nav software is this one:

Damn monthly subscription crap, just like Nokia. Give me CoPilot and pre-installed maps any day.
