flop? s60? what planet are you on? (not only is it a phenomenal success in terms of market share, it's also still the OS of choice for me for phones... and probably will remain for a few more years, as long as S60v3 phones are available.)

motorola and sonyericsson used a different interface on top of symbain, uiq. tho the latter folded ones nokia grabbed the symbian shares and started setting up the symbian foundation.
still, if you swap OS for platform, you may well be correct, tho i am still not sure about S60, as a platform, being a flop, given how many nokia phones there are out there running it.
btw, here is a list of gsm phones running symbian S60...

To the worried ones, you can safely consider your comments fruit of paranoia.

He is a top executive from one company moving to another company. He is not heading the R&D function that Ari keeps heading but goes to lead the business function that is elsewhere in the company and you have probably never heard about.

What is this niche? At least it seems people in the USA like this niche and it also seems Apple can make the highest profits on the market from this niche.

Regardless, your old-fashoined sterotypes of Americans is no longer true, if it ever was. Things have changed, for example besides President Obama, there is an Austrian-born actor in charge of my State. IMO, modern Americans certianly have a worldview.

It's the third time I'm posting in this thread saying that you don't have to worry. If someone still prefers to worry then it's worthless to try with a 4th post. So I won't even try.
