So we can expect P(next) with S60 next year then? |

Yeah looks like it. He didnt say S60 though he said essentially S60 so take from that what you will. But he also said it will have decent specs to get you all here drooling. So good times ahead but its still a bit of a wait.
Dont assume it will be P series. Who knows if it will even be touch screen.

Not if you're using Nokia. I have serious doubts that this would be the case for SE. |

I think after all the crap we have had to put up with over the years this is the best thing that could have happened for SE. They are going to use new hardware and they will be using the most popular software. Its a win win situation for us all.

Yes but SE using S60 possibly without touch screen means nothing to me.
P990i: A mistake, a curse and a disgrace  So I lowered my expectations and settled for a P1i. I couldn't keep my expectations so low for a long time so now I have an HTC Touch HD |

So dont buy it then. UIQ is dead for SE and Nokia havent yet released S60 touch so I dont know what you are expecting.

Well, if they donīt come out and say clearly whatīs going to happen, right NOW, they do not deserve people to buy their s60 crap...might as well buy Nokia, the original...because they are now starting to sell new UIQ phones (g700 and g900), that will be replaced in short term by units that are NOT compatible with its aplications. They also issue no word about what kind of support these 2 phones will have, like P1 and W960. Or if its users will actually be able to see any new apps in coming months, after all this mess comes to the ears of developers
By the way Bavlondon, or should i say Uchiha Sasuke, its not pretty to see you badmouthing esato users at mobile-review, than come here like its nothing...

Im not bad mouthing anyone. I have openly said what i thought of the so called rumors and insiders and how they hyped up everything out of proportion. Im not really wanting to drap this topic into a fight but continue if you wish. And its not like im the only one to have said this.
Regarding support for existing phones with those 200 getting sacked im not sure if new firmware will be developed but some support should be available for some time. In any case its time to join the S60 party. Also you dont know what sort of hardware SE will use in the future so lets wait and see.

Well a few of said Uiq was dying and it did, there just wasnt enough progress. I think a few of the hardcore uiq fans will move onto other touchscreen UI's and be quite suprised at how much they have been missing.

W980 is not successor of W910 as I know.
and what about Patty? 3 flagship?
I've been told only 1 more with 5mpx will appear this year, Does that mean that W960's successor won't have 5mpx because Patty will come with it ?
strange... |

I meant W910 was the  feature phone flagship, W960 the smartphone flagship. Now it's W980/gap. And will be Patty/Wnext. |
