This comments section is MEANT to be about C6-01 and CLOSELY related topics -not about Symbian vs iOS vs Android etc. !
It would be good to have posts about FEATURES such as the uses and benefits of USB-OTG or TV-out functionality on other hardware or the pro's and con's of ClearBlack technology vs others. Can we do that ?
I for one am interested in these features (as well as the OS) too.

          "firstly m not trolling,secondly get ur basics right before commenting anything on the stock market..what were the prices of nokia stocks 3yrs ago,they r recovering but not quite at there peak where they once used to be."

          Oh tut, tut, tut... you said losing confidence which implies a continued slide. The whole point you and the other silly little people who come here to troll miss is that the corner's been turned and all your sad little fantasies about Nokia disappearing have come to nothing.

          That's why investors are buying the stock again and that's why it's going up. You can harp on about three years ago if you want but it's not relevant.

            I love my Nokia 5530 because it's size and price,
            So, this one will be my next phone..
            I love small phones with advanced features.

            Imagine that you can put all this features in your small pocket,,,

            Good job Nokia...

              Symbian may not have as much of those native apps as apple. But we call them bookmarks on opera.

                  Biggest app category? Books. And boy are there lots of them. And so many duplicates. Someone counted 25 standalone apps that offer the book "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn". The truth is I would much rather not have a book category at all, just few nice apps that could handle book collections.

                  But does Apple care? No, because Apple and all the iPhone fans can brag how many apps they have. Thats whats important right?

I think they will be fine being in 3rd place, after iOS & Android. I honestly think apps as such will be less relevant in a few years, so I would not bet the farm on apps right now.

                              http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=NOK+Basic+Chart&t=3m

                              I think the worst is over for Nokia. Their market share will continue to slip, but they will still keep selling more & more smartphones. And with the new symbian strategy, and the new CEO, it seems like things are picking up on the ASP in the foreseeable future as well.

                              Remember, Nokia only needs to make 3 dollars more for each phones ( or less costs ) to earn an additional 1.2 Billion in profit every year.

Nokia 5800 sold more than any single model iPhone, but not all combined. Nokia does sell more full touch screen smartphones than Apple, but not all of them are high end.
