Totally off topic comment, but it's odd that the city of choice for the weather app is Cape Town, all the way down in South Africa.

An exact copy of Android, right down to the 3 dots down the bottom indicating the homescreen.
The phone even looked like a HTC Magic with the ball replaced by two buttons.
Nokia connecting people...

A widget that goes back and forth and a gallery that makes flickr feels like Minority Report. And by the way, what's the point of apples? Fruits should NOT be following the apples, they should be going past them. It's like saying that if apples grow on trees, watermelons should, too. Finally, I hope Symbian makes it, since I'm a fan of competition. :)
@deepspacebar: That actually makes sense. If they keep the hopes low enough, they may even surprise us... if you (them) got something to show us, do it at once.

If any of you have good ides to make symbian 4 a greatest os, then head over to developer.symbian.org
there is some thread discussing how to improve the new ui!!!
All ideas are welcomed
btw
this video is just a concept video which nokia sent to symbian at 15 Jan 2010
stop judging symbian 4 until it is out at 2011

Let's not be too harsh regarding this , it's only a Demo after all. I think not so long ago there was a thing about Symbian taking input from people about how ^4 should look like. So if you have anything constructive to say and have some innovative about the UI then do it.
I think Qt being used is great and will offer lots of possibilities for innovation and customization. Let's not forget that mobile phone operators do customize the UI.
Also correct me if I'm wrong here but Apple didn't really make any innovations since they launched the iPhone either so I dunno about this.
I for one think Symbian is a great mobile OS, better even than Linux even though I'm a fan of Linux. Symbian allows for cheaper smartphones for the masses and with a Qt based UI in ^4 it will be competitive with iPhone , Android and the likes.

It doesn't make sense, when symbian 3 offer many homepages while symbian 4 offer 3 homepages only as seen in the video!
