Thank you, you emphasise my point, NOKIA were trying to shoehorn a smartphone OS into hardware more appropriate to the previous years feature phones.


Android SUCKS on low grade hardware, it did then and it does now.
I still have my Magic. It runs just fine, nice and fluid (1.6). At that time a 528 MHz CPU was top of the line. There were no other Androids around either, but they startet coming in hordes.

Symbian phones used to run 200MHz.
