Some images posted on the Nokia Germany website just lifted the curtain on one of the features to come in the next Symbian^3 update. What we are seeing is the free-form widgets that were initially...

i was a big fan of Nokia. But from 2 year Nokia is producing craps. They have alot of problems like hanging, slow and restarting bc of there low end processor. Now i am moving towards ios. If nokia continue producing these carps so costly then no doubt at one time no one know them. They have to increase their processors and apps to satisfy their customers.

    Why are they all in landscape mode?

    Will it end up not being able to handle portrait mode due to the varying size of the widgets/icons/e.t.c. like the N900?

      Uffoh, 10 May 2011Symbian is nt dead.it is far from dead look at recent devlopmentIt's not dead yet but there's no denying that it's dying. Symbian used to have 46% smartphone marketshare in Q1 2010 and now it's down to 26% in Q1 2011. Woohoo! I can't wait to see Q2 results. It should dip to less than 20% marketshare.

      Blame the decline on Android and iOS and on the masses abandoning Nokia. XD

            SFAN, 10 May 2011WTF r u smoking? American UI? You mean iOS? That UI is crap... moreFor someone telling another person to do their research you sure don't do Hurst do you? TAT is not Creator or android II, android ui was always a part of android Inc a California based company. TAT is maker of third party ui known forbtheir fast 3d ui for android. However this is not androids ui. You're just like those people who tell people on the internet they have horrible grammar, but spell it "grammer ".

                twiggy, 10 May 2011I just don't get why every commentator here feels like it's... moreI personnaly support Bada and Symbian against android and IOS because I don't want 2 or 3 giants to dominate the market..
                But Nokia is playing the wrong game...I don't care if 600MHZ cpu is enough for symbian os...they have to use at least 1Gig single core for being strong on the market...Their phones are not cheap, they're expensive...you can buy a dual core phone with the prices they are asking for..
                That's why I want them to wake up...If they continiue like this they will drop down from the list to the second, third, forth place...
                We will loose..no competition means higher prices for us..
                But who is listening..NOKIA...I don't think so..their hads are burried under the ground like the "giant" bird!!!!!!!!!!..

                                I'm so very bored with the Nokia blogosphere, these days. Honestly, there's no news from Nokia, at all. Unless, that is, you want to report on the latest games that are being released. Nokia cannot release an update to Symbian^3 to save its life (which is literally what's at stake, now). Belle coming "in the Fall"?! Says who? Fall, 2011, in the Northern Hemisphere? Honestly, Ovi Suite cannot sync recurring events, from Outlook. Symbian^3 doesn't have a single reader of commercial ebooks. Google "ovi store won't work on the N8" to see what independent developers are up against. Those blogging about Nokia devices have my sympathy; I understand your desire to write about something. But we need to declare a holiday on any postings that include the words "Nokia" and "updates."

                                  I just don't get why every commentator here feels like it's his/her duty to comment something bad about symbian every single time they see article about it. Some nokia shots leaked and instead of discussing it most of the comments praise android etc. wtf? this article is not about android!!! if you have no interest whatsoever about symbian operating system and rather see it dead - stop commenting here. your nonsense is not affecting nokia in any way whatsover!

                                  now I personally found it quite a nice addition and hope to see it out asap. The fact that nokia is currently developing two OS'es is just grand! symbian still does for me everything I need and every little re-design feature like this just makes my day as hardware-wise I have no complaints at all.

                                    Symbian is symbian. No matter what version it is. All kinds are too bad..

                                      Mayby it's "Bella" update instead? ;) So, that two updates would do together the Annabella-update ;D

                                      ... But why couldn't it be only Symbian Annabelle(even though I think Symbian Annabella would sound better and great :D).

                                      As N8 user I'm happy that my great phone will be even better in the future. Thank you Nokia! N8 has already been the best thing I have ever bought :)
