More I am trying to stay loyal to Nokia the more it is giving me an opportunity, to forego it. Only bad news for Symbian users, 1) Belle will not be available till Q1 2012 & then even worse 2) there will be no updates for Nokia handsets having processor below 1ghz. It sounds as if Nokia is trying to sell new phones by telling that you have to buy a new nokia phone with 1ghz to get an update. Being a loyal customer fro past 10 years, am not happy with this news.

                  For additional information look at http://mynokiablog.com/2011/11/15/upcoming-symbian-updates-carla-donna/

                  who is totally oposit to your source, when this information becomes offical we shell see who was wright. I guess mysymbian blog is nearer to true from pictures and update policy of nokia which updates 2 year old devices.

                      Symbian belle update is awesome improvement.Nokia have plan to stop Symbian in 2016 but Nokia now realize that belle getting start to accepted by most of people. I think very soon Nokia will change there plan.Simple is the best.Very soon android will start to boring by the most of people for tiredness and for over versatility.Most of people switch to ios from Android when apple will start to launch chip Iphone in the market and next war will be between ios and Symbian.

                            Carla, Donna all other Symbians, MEMO, MEGO, Windows and others. Nokia Too many operating systems maybe at the end you'r going to make Android phones but can you tell which operating system to be supported by you

                                    On that blury power point presentation isn't written anything about limitations of updateing only devices with 1 GHz and 512 MB RAM. After this i would want to know where GSMARENA did get these information from, because on symbian latino site isn't explained where did they get their information from because on the power point presentation isn't written anything about these limitations and there isn't much data about carla and donna.

                                      "We wonder how many cores the mobile processors will offer by then, but now we know Nokia's Symbian smartphones three years from now will have two cores."

                                      If you look how PCs have developped, it has stopped on two cores. When dual cores came common assumption was, that the amount of cores would rise and rise - but that didn't or haven't yet happen.
