Symbian hero will degenerate into Nokia's one-man show?

"My friend, help!"

Looks like the North Korean officials S you mumbled tilted to send text messages to help, said at the White Mountain black water of small cities of their own cell phone hang up to get a new one, he said his phase 3, namely the Nokia N81, the Motorola A1600 Ming and Dopod S1 Hardcover Edition, in thousands of miles away I give points.

To say that these three models also was kind of meaning, a water smart machine, also are Symbian (Saipan), Linux, and WindowsMobile6.0 system, if you only consider this point, I will not hesitate to have selected Saipan, after all, S40, S60, the end of the market should be no great performance. Linux is open source system, but stability or less points of attainment. As for the black screen of the Microsoft System, PC and play it, moving to the cell phone covers an area of memory big speed and slow, cumbersome, eyes and bad, the error rate is also high, who selected who 囧. However, taking into account the fact that I have always had the pseudo S successful person pitch, rhythm and recommended fat of Motorola, who let the importance of capturing it.

Speaking of smart phones, most recently in the fashion capital of London also held an exhibition of Saipan Smartphone.

As each season of the pageant, the scene of developers, manufacturers and software companies Basic are big-time. However, this Conference has no new releases so excited media confused. Finally, the new Chairman of Saipan Foundation, Nokia executives LeeWilliams uncovered the answer: because analysts forecast a high-end smartphone sales will decline, Williams to specifically seek salvation road immortal. It appears that the financial crisis, the mobile phone market is also the spirits a bit confused.

To say the Saipan new headed Williams really some background, he is currently responsible for Nokia S60 mobile phone overseas marketing departments in charge of mainstream user interface of Saipan system.

Therefore, he is so eager to 23 October Conference to find solutions. However, it is clear that at this point is no longer of Saipan disconnection from the past with the most advanced mobile operating system Union, 10 years of independent software development platform is irrelevant. Although, at present, the smart phone market, half are from Saipan, rival Microsoft WindowsMobile system still declining. However, because of the change, Saipan, the largest shareholder and largest customers are exclusively for Nokia, its independence was questioned. June 24, Nokia announced the acquisition of shares in Saipan, 52.1% so justifiably holding this open source foundations, and claims to other mobile phone manufacturers to provide more open platform. This immediately in the Canaries, those who rely on the Linux platform software suddenly found eating a piece of new virgin territory, while Microsoft mobile sector also got panic.

Since Saipan to open source Foundation, its Board of Directors has also undergone significant change.

Used by Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Panasonic, Siemens and Samsung's five group holdings, but now new Saipan Foundation members into a 10: 5 mobile phone manufacturers, Nokia, LG, Motorola, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, and another five are network operators or chip manufacturers, namely AT & T, NTT DoCoMo and Vodafone (Vodafone), ST Microelectronics, and TexasInstruments (Texas instruments). While Nokia is Saipan's owner and the largest customer, but occupied the top ten shareholders on the proposal are cited Lee applaud. However, the handsets CCSInsight consulting firm surveys, although not find more powerful than Nokia's participants, but enhanced its Board of Directors of Saipan effects detrimental to its future development.

From Nomura Securities analyst for the mobile phone, past Saipan RichardWindsor believes in May are not aware of the effects of mobile phone manufacturers, but now like Williams that Nokia to his ego bar Saipan is bound to two years to reduce the independence of the Union.

Also, if he will listen to competitors Sony Ericsson and Motorola voice, still unknown. Williams took over Saipan will face a more severe challenge. With the rise of the Apple iPhone, the touch screen has become the major manufacturers are racing to chase focus features, so he must make the Saipan system follow the trend. IPhone's success has been proven to develop compelling, user-friendly interface is so important.

However, Windsor, the pressures of competition with Apple is, the sooner you put the technology into mobile phones, smart phones will be virtually increase the cost of production, which means that the possibility of mobile phone prices, which will reduce the economic recession of the market is bad news.

That is the case, people are not going to pay to buy high-end smart phones. Nomura forecast that this year the Smartphone growth only 25% (about 1.774 billion), if the global economic downturn, this figure to 2009 will be reduced to 20% or even less.

Smart phone plates are smaller, while the former means world hero of Saipan also became the Nokia theater props up Odaiba, although the mobile system of Kung Fu in the convening of the General Assembly also, but these are the opponents are allies of manufacturers have started to play their own than yours.

After all, it is the eternal interests friends.
