        99% of the people who are complaining do not even own a Symbian phone (nor, of course, are planning to buy one).

                Aadrian, 07 Oct 2013Nokia promised, MS not. Because of the stupid MS deal, the ... moreWell, Nokia is a legal entity no matter who runs it. If every promise everywhere changed all the time depending on who's the management, then there would be no continuity and a company would lose the trust of its customers.

                Let's say I made a decision to buy an 808 PV because I was told, no, PROMISED that it would have a support in the form of navmaps, stability improvements etc. for another 3-4 years. Now I am CHEATED and SCAMMED. I don't give a crap who is in charge. If you buy a company, you buy its OBLIGATIONS as well.

                  I still love Symbian. In these poor Android and pathetic iOS days.

                        these operating systems weren't going anywhere...
                        sooner or later they were gonna die.

                        from a company point of view...its much efficient to dump them and adopt and push microsoft's Own OS

                              Should have been done ages ago
                              people still think symbian is a really smart OS?
                              And that horrid gesture Meego thing .. I hated the N8 for the 2 days I bought it.

                              Nokia knows how to build phones, the phone felt really premium ... but the software sucked !

                                They stopped making Symbian phones THIS YEAR and promised support until 2016. Liars. N8 user now, but my next phone will not be a Lumia.

                                  Nokia stopping support only for MeeGo and Symbian.
                                  There are several other OS for which Nokia is continuing their service. they are just kicking some part because of lower response from market and technically sounds competetor like samsung/iphone .

                                    This is clear betrayel. Those of us who purchased nokia phones till date, have been left in the lurch, though were promised support till 2016.

                                      For the very few apps there are ( I have an E6) at least they work Windows 8 more not than do

                                      Windows 8 apps are dire none of the timer apps work,
                                      eg fake caller countdown timer due to running (or not) in the back ground they are suspended or if you lock screen activates

                                      Another is just 2 scientific calulators of merit, however only one has a back space, make an error on the other and its the whole entry all over again
