If NOKIA completely lives Symbian for windows they are making a wrong decision. Because windows phone is not theirs it belong to Microsoft and to me is not the best platform, it lacks a lot of features.

Who cares, symbian is dead slow even with belle FP1.
saw its new browser too... It is very laggy n unresponsive compared to even low end androids like galaxy Y.
Windows phone is awesome... The most smoothest os i have ever used or seen... Browser is butter smooth... Im more interested in windows phone 8.....
Nokia made a wise decision by partnering with microsoft. I think symbian should be used in future digital cameras.
Symbian's major limitation is screen resolution.

Why then they will continue paying Accenture?
Their contract is for at least 2-3 more years.
I think the rumor is wrong.

There is new OS that Symbian users can choose - Windows Phone 7. The problem is, this system is done according to Microsoft point of view - closed system, MS is your god, you have to use MS software, MS is still your god, limitations, more limitations, there are only limitations, limitations are your gods too...

Now its official that ELOP does not want 808 be a success.I am just thinking what will be Elop's next move.
To launch Lumia pureview with WP8?
WP never was/will be camera friendly OS and with nokia's current workforce it could take almost 2 years to launch a pureview lumia device. till that time i could use android(i am hoping that WP8 will not be as crap as WP7)

I can't belive it!!! Nokia wont be able to make succesful flagships by Windows. Who will buy the 808 after these shocking news? It can't be true... I hope this is fake...

Anonymous, 23 May 2012why nokia even bother to make nokia 808 purevieuw, this is ... moreThe 808 was never meant to save Symbian (that's pretty much impossible at this point)
The 808's prime purpose is to introduce and demonstrate the pureview technology.
Nokia began developing pureview a few years ago when Symbian was still a competitor, they decided to introduce it now using Symbian rather than wait until they had adapted the technology to WP.
It's time to put Symbian to bed now, as even with the improvements brought in by 'belle' it's still a vastly inferior OS to it's opposition.
