Thumbs up for THAT alone.

Oh... and Belle looks rather decent. And from me, that's saying a lot since I've vowed to never use Symbian unless I truly had to.

And that's what Nokia is walking away from? Makes no sense.
Agreed. I can't see how Nokia wouldn't be doing well in the mid-range with the new Symbian Belle, and well in the upper-range with Meego (or Harmattan as it is at the mo). But it looks like they're not walking away just yet, with a promise of more S^Belle phones next year and more updates, Symbian will be around for a while longer than most expected.
The 'oh what a damn shame' part comes with moving to WP7.5 instead of sticking it out with Maemo/Meego for those super-smartphones.

Makes you wonder if Elop is like Michael Scott in that Nokia office...
