I ran into an ex-colleague who still uses a Nokia E70 - a Symbian model with
a
full keyboard - and likes it so much that he asked me whether I'd sell him
mine
if his ever breaks. Since I don't use my E70 much any more, I said there
was a
possibility. I noticed that his keypad buttons were almost completely
scratched blank.
Apparently it straddles the line between "feature phone"
and "smartphone"
very neatly for him, which makes sense since it wasn't quite
enough of a
smartphone for me. So now I carry around an iPhone and an ancient
Nokia
3310 - the latter for emergencies, since the iPhone's battery runs flat
more
quickly.
As for the Lumia series, by all accounts the hardware is
great, the software is
surprisingly good, but there's no real app ecosystem
(mobile app developers
are already happy and busy with Android and iOS) - and I
get the distinct
impression that ordinary people are now waking up to the fact
that Windows
is something you use because you have to, not because you
want
to. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

My previous phone was a Nokia C3 a couple of weeks ago the touch screen failed,
for the second time in as many months. I now have a Samson Mini.
I would however like to thank Nokia, without their hardware failing I wouldn't
have discovered how good Android is.
