    They were on their way killing their phone line for a long time before that. They shouldn’t have stuck with Symbian for so long.

      MeeGo was quite good! And the latest Symbian wasn’t that bad either at the time, though I’ve heard the source code was all hacky (hence the creation of MeeGo).
