In the swedish newspaper "NyTeknik" Jan Uddenfeldt (some big boss in SE in charge of new technology) said that they have no plans for new symbian phones.
"- Android är helt klart vårt fokus, Men vi har inte givit upp Microsofts operativsystem Windows Mobile, trots att det haft lite trögt att lyfta. Men Windows Phone 7 finns med på kartan. Däremot har vi i nuläget inga planer på nya produkter med Symbian, säger Jan Uddenfeldt."
Translation:
"- Android is clearly our new focus. But we havnt given up on windows mobile, despite its problems. Windows Phone 7 is on the map. As of now we have no plans for future symbian devices says Jan Uddenfeldt.

I won't think they will stop Symbian support just right away. I mean, they can't forget their Satio and Vivaz users.

They havent dropped Symbian, they just dont have any plans to produce a symbian device at the moment, Samsung said the same thing, they are focusing on Android and WP7, i think its a great move, there doesnt seem to be any developer interest in Symbian at the moment, and even as an OS it doesnt offer anything over Android.

@tranced: vivaz has a lot of bugs, and we know that even though nokia tends to resolve most of its phones problems, sometimes it does is at an alarmingly slow pace...
so for the moment, i don't think that there will be anything for those phones...

Symbian is soon to be killed by Nokia, as there next cycle of phones will run MeeGo instead.

better they can improve their android capability instead of spending the work on symbian.
nokia is there to take care of symbian.. already x10 is not seeing the light of 2.2 if they spend the resource on android there's definetly going to be down. i dont think symbian 3 offers more than android.. so its a good move by
but shouldn't forget the satio... shame a 12mp flagship is left without a care by
..
they have to learn how nokia did for N8!!!

Just don't want bashing here, but
already dropped since
show lacks of supported over
S60 users.
If real supported I don't think
would stop with only 2 firmwares for SATIO and VIVAZ.
It will be good to
to dropping one that you can't capable of enough supported
