        symbian OS for me. it is my preference. also, it is rare for cel phone service providers to have a symbian os smartphone in their store. thats why the android market is blooming. i'm excited about the dell streak or dell mini 5 that att is launching. i may get one to try out the android os with an adobe flash player 10.1. iphone 4 beware!

            Nothing unusual.
            Since Microsoft is extremely in rebound and after all said and wrote about how great WP7 is,debut is still months away and currently it's Microsoft's loss=Google's gain.
            i think it's best to say nothing about other OS's because Nokia and it's aged Symb has nothing to say.how about Apple?"please type Apple iPhone 4 at news section to get full information of newest variation of Apple phones"and as i said WP7 is still far so it's just Research In Motion with limited production and limited market and there you are,how great life is!isn't it?market at once is switching to Android.
            As for me i was going to buy Samsung's WP7 first creation or S8500Wave but can't wait with my old U900 that long so i'm going to S8500 or maybe...Galaxy S...maybe.

            ...Cheers from Germany.

              Most of the 5xxx / 6-series users I know don't have a single idea what Symbian is all about, not to mention if they ever download any program and use the "smart" function of the phone.

              Most Android / Apple users I know fully utilize the "smart" functions of the phones by downloading apps constantly.

                                    NOKIA AND RIM ARE THE LEADERS

                                    can not be beat but RIM needs to stop relying on BBM or they are screwed,cause everyone is making their own personal messenger and it's easier to use as well
