I read the article. Not exactly ditched, those that loved those features can keep using the S80 Communicators. There won't be S80 sw development anymore, but there wasn't that much when the E90 was released. And adapting S60 to the Communicator HW was hard enough, especially knowing that Nokia does not throw money around, I'm not surprised that it didn't duplicate all of the functionality.

The returns are not completely in yet. The transition to S60 was intended to reap the benefits of 3rd party apps and you have to allow time for that to happen before making a judgment.
