Nokia decide to kill Symbian despite the UX on the N8 actually being good. FFS, 30%+ growth is not a problem if the market is expanding massively to include budget crap. IT's something that needs watching but.
In the meantime, HP announce the TouchPad we were expecting when they bought Palm, and let us know it'll have full interop with their Palm phones and laptops.
I am wondering whether I'll be able to get a Palm phone at some point on contract. Just as I was getting attached to and looking forward to an N8 they decide to kill it.
FFS, the biggest problem is lack of apps and not brillaint UI. The UI problem is mostly fixed, the phone is very good, but they've deicded to chase all the developers away by announcing they'll switch to bloody Windows.
While HP are moving away from Windows in what appears to be an interesting direction.
