@Radenski Tx for the info bud  The thing is, people at large (the public), expect the symbian foundation to come up with a perfectly stable OS in like 6months! On the other hand, the 'hardcore' symbian s60 fans know better though. The Symbian workers only became Nokia workers as of the end of last month! They will only begin working 'seriously' on the new s60 upgrade next month. And this time around the upgrade will be a pretty big one! It will be very interesting to see if they manage to come up with a 'public safe' version, before the year is over. The sooner the upgrade will be released, the closer it will be to the actuall s60 touch. Actually Nokia talks about (hold your breath) JUNE 2010! I expect preliminary versions to be available long before then though. Will SE take the plunge and use a version which is not 101%? Certainly they do have the reputation of releasing handsets with 'half backed' firmware.

about the OMAP3430... found this on the net:
The OMAP3430 can connect to images sensors up to 12 mega pixels in size with minimal shot-to-shot delay, enabling camera phones that are equivalent to or better than most digital still cameras on the market today. Additional features in the OMAP3430 like On-the-fly JPEG compression and connectivity support for both serial and parrallel cameras aid in throughput and storage as well as add design flexibility.
So it may be true. It's 3x faster than AMR11.. if it's by the MHz, then i guess it should be ~ 900MHz.. (remember the 1Ghz processor anounced some time ago?). That's a wow.

The OMAP3430 has a clock rate of 600 mhz and not around 900 mhz. The fastest OMAP3 CPU has a clock rate of 800 mhz.
The one with the 1+ ghz is in the new OMAP4 series which was introduced some days ago.
Anyway I hope they use a CPU of the OMAP3 series and utilize it to it's maximum. |

Funny thing about this is the iPhone cannot operate LIKE a true smartphone; not able to run 2 applications simultaneously - the phone or SMS/MMS reception is NOT part of a smartphone its part of the phone. Jobs specifically said its a 'Smarter Phone' while also stating its a smartphone. Their ballyhood attempt at criticising application switching showing off server side push message queues to apps - never panned out 1year after showing us - and 8mths now after its supposed to be delivered even to developers! HA!
Two words - what, and ever. The iPhone delivers exactly the kind of data-driven mobile application platform that drove the development of Symbian as a mobile OS ten years ago, and most importantly it's made it mainstream, and put it in the hands of millions. In two years they've created a eco-system and userbase from scratch that the "Symbian Foundation" can only dream of, despite a ten year head start.
Mock the single-tasking if you like (as utterly inaccurate as such a claim is) - it's hollow laughter.
You obviously haven't tried any of the new products based on S60 this past year have you?
Wrong, and irrelevant.

@mario- Are you completely nuts??? Do you have any idea what Open source means??? Since the Symbian foundation ha already been created, SE and their engineers have full right to work on that and make out an OS sooner. If Nokia doesnt want to work on the SF now, then its totally upto them. SE have their own engineers and I doubt if they give a damn about what Nokia thinks or when they are going to start working. SE donated their UIQ to the system and are working on that and other basics that come up with the other S60 implementations. |

Hey bud, sorry to have upset you. No need to call me names. I am aware that we have very different back grounds/educations,nevertheles, lets keep it up 'gentlemen' style. If you don't agree with something you are welcome to comment and give some links to prove your point if necessary/asked for it/relevant. Insulting other members won't help your cause  Indeed, SE may decide to 'go on their own' as you suggest, but they may end up with a Symbian OS which is not compatible to the 'rest'. I respect your views and I am aware you are very 'experienced' concerning SE. On the other hand you should realise that even a 'completely nuts' chap, after 6+ years of S60 following, will meet people and get relevant opinions regarding system development and the OS's future. And that is what I am sharing here. Once again I apologise if my opinions bring 'undesirable' news for you. Greetings from South Africa.

Nah, your rants pissed me off. What I am trying to say is that SE are at liberty to go their own. And i ams ure every brand would have an exclusivity to the apps running on the phone. At least some apps. If thats not the case, the whole OS war would be a bit boring IMO. Samsung, SE and Nokia should be differentiable by the apps. |

Then Idou will be officially named something like C990? That's a bit...off.

Yeah, that just doesn't sound quite right. I really have doubts that this Idou is going to be a cybershot. |

Its seems the real codename for this phone might be Kokoro - correct me if I am wrong. Idou Thread.
I too hope it will be called something a bit more inspiring than C990.
