Nothing comes close to symbian one handed use. Unfortunately the (generally dumb) users are king, they see the shiny shiny and buy it. And then the thousands of pointless apps to amuse the users.

The N9 however is a step in the right direction - its shiny and should hopefully have some aps, but also have access to the terminal for power users.

Most people on here see the iphone as gimmicky - and thats why nokia probably thought about it too, which is why they are in this predicament to begin with.
