So yes, Symbian stuff (and all other stuff) can be ported IF it's open source. If not, you have to either reverse engineer it (use various tool to figure out how the compiled code works, and come up with your own code that copies it appropriately), or clone it (meaning, just write your own code from scratch without reverse engineering that does the same things on the surface). Frankly, this applies to all software everywhere.
what i know about programming is exactly what a middle aged one eyed frog knows about soil concentration in mars after solar storm that lasts for 2 years,
so i can get you the symbian app. would you mind looking at it ?
