It did an acquisition of Symbian at probably the worst time possible (and tht too late) and do not think integration was easy which is probably the reason why so many of the touch screen capabilities of Nokia stayed ages behind. But then a lot of the features of most of the “advanced phones” of these days have been a part of symbian for years now. This includes video calling, true multitasking, support for varied hardware, tethering, voice dialling and comprehensive bluetooth support. Additionally, Symbian^3 now has features that are yet to be seen in the competitors’ offerings. Some of these include – Bluetooth 3.0 support, USB-To-Go (USB Host), ability to stream HD video with Dolby 5-channel audio over HDMI (with HDCP), PictBridge support, ability to map remote drives, near-complete POSIX C/C++ API compatibility, support for hardware-acceleration of encryption/decryption, and many many more.

Yes, :) I did wonder if we'd see a teen or a kid Doctor :D . Personally, I'd rather see a female Doctor first though.

Many of the young people having very high IQ fare very low on EQ which is needed as you grow up.. And sadly, our educational system does not focus much on building the EQ.
