-->> I could agree with what you write above, let's check history on this particular line:


Europe has invested 11 millions in Symbian just before Elop killed it.

Symbeose stands for "Symbian -- the Embedded Operating System for Europe.

A few random headlines:

Seen the news in this topic the pledge of Elop to support Symbian till 2016 now reads as: leave Symbian raped and infected with MS spyware as an lead out present.
Interesting. I wonder how quick this would revive after a single slide from Snowden with 'iOS/Android/WP' next to 'Direct access' (probably won't happen though as they are using carriers http://www.techdirt.com/articles/201...one-call.shtml, sorry for OT but why noone came up with software scrambbler/encoder pgp like with public/private keys to avoid carrier sniffing is strange)
