Yeah, I guess I am wrong to put S40 into the Symbian bracket, but I do. I've always considered it Symbian Series 40. But it isn't Symbian, sorry. I keep forgetting. Especially now as the features are leaking down.

By adding features such as quicker Web and online games to its Asha handsets popular in faster-growing economies including India and China, Nokia boosted its share of the basic-phone market to 35% last quarter — the highest in two years. Unlike the smartphone division, the basic-phone business is profitable and unit sales are increasing.

For Nokia, this can only be bad. It means Windows Phone isn't selling enough. For poor people in the 3rd world, it's good.
