Yes. But this particular one is very badly implemented

Let me very quickly enlighten the crowd:

...just as a race car crew may have first pioneered the use of some kind of crazy suspension, but then it finally was adaptable to mass market and better. While the racers were perfecting the suspension it sure was a rough ride sometimes

It sure as hell was a rough ride, but the prototype racer still did 250mph! Even back then, with crude undeveloped suspension!
But, now, I'd really be upset if a company would sell me their roadgoing racecar prototype and after a while I would find out it runs out of juice at 120mph like my stupid massmarked citycar just outside the door for a tenth of the price.

Anyway, Symbian is currently the mass market OS for Nokia and extremely suitable for most of the world apparently.

I don't care which model they consider mass market ready, I just want my prototype car I bought for a fortune to run 250mph. As promised. And I wouldn't even mind to tinker, as long as I would get to 250mph at some point...
