Tom-Helge, 25 May 20101. So you say that Android for example doesn't have those n... moreHi Tom,
I see you are still promoting the SE phone in the N8 thread, which is funny in itself. The reason I respond to you however is the app numbers.
Just like Android, Symbian app landscape is fragmented, so I can only give you a total. Judging from the URL's in the store, and expert insight from AAS, it is around 37k for now. Which is pretty good. For a popular model the total number of apps written specifically for that platform & resolution is around 11k now.
Of course, those numbers, just like 50k for Android do not make sense. They need to be analyzed first, removing duplicates like lite or freemium versions.
It is a matter of quality really, and in that sense 10k apps for a given phone is more than enough. The games havent been great so far, but that is because the phones had no 3d acceleration. Now that is fixed, and there is a good sdk, there is no reason to not have great games for S^3. Remember, EA & Gameloft have jumped on the MeeGo train. Those games will use Qt. Qt runs on S^3. Start to make sense?

Kristy, 25 May 2010OMG loving the Nokia N8 thinking of getting it... one quest... moreHey Kristy, it certainly does, and alot more. To output music you have option of 3.5mm Output, Bluetooth (which is the best, all your music everywhere every time) and FM Transmitter. And when your car audio system evolves, its HDMI ready ;)

Second Iphone started from zero application and Android also. But symbian^3 Has to start from thousands of applications.. I dont see any reason that developer will not make application for Symbian^3.
#1 Symbian is still World No 1 Os.
#2 Symbian^3 comes with qt inbuilt, so if developers will make application for s^3, it will also work on s^4, Meego and future Symbian version. Unlike Android where developers have to rewrite their applications for each platform..
#3 Previous symbian^1 was based on OMAP 1.0, so there was no good games available for it. But S^3 supports OMAP 2.0.

Once again. Let's compare the app store to a restaurant.
One has a menu of over a hundred different foods. However, the quality of the foods isn't always good and 95% of those foods are desserts. Then there's another restaurant that only offers a menu of 30 courses, but those are filling, tasty and something that most people would eat. Which restaurant would you go to if you are hungry? You could take either, but neither is better than the other! It's a question of taste and preference, so please stop drawing the 'appstore' card.
