All About Symbian Notable Symbian applications and developers of 2011 2011 was a tumultuous year for Symbian.

All About Symbian How would you improve the Nokia N8? It's somewhat amazing that the Nokia N8 remains in the top tier of smartphones a full 16 months after release - it's fair to say that this is almost entirely due to its camera, with perhaps build quality and gadget-complement contributing too.
