I have a puzzle for you:

Symbian Anna
Symbian Roswita
Symbian Helga
Symbian Cintia
Symbian Doris
Symbian Fatma
Symbian Cindy
Symbian Christine
Symbian Birgit
Symbian Tamara
Symbian Barbara

Which one is the newest release?
If a app runs under "Birgit", will it work at "Helga"?!
i have a answer for you, i am not saying to ditch numbering, i am saying that names along with numer helps
i am also not saying that small updates should have names.
Ps your example for dying symbian is bad one:P
All symbian users dreams about so many girls

I have question for you, whats the name of latest android for phones? whats the version number? You probably remember both but when you talk about latest android, you say gingerbread.

I am just saying that i think words are more natural for most people then numbers

symbian Anna is for sure a rename of symbian 4. I have to admit even if I prefer Meego/Maemo the new UI in symbian looks promising.

I hope it will succes and tthe new symbian phones sells like hell in europeen and asia.

I hope the stupid board directors, payed by Microsoft, get kicked in theyr fat asses cause they decided go wp7.

But I guess I am just naive cause the directorsboard will for sure do everything to make symbian/Meego fail.

It took way to long to understand this by companies and google is the first one to truly start using it.

Anyway, it is for us
Debian has been doing it for several years if not since it was born

Maemo 6/Harmattan should be renamed Trixie or Sapphire, like the sticky stripper she is. So much promise, such little satisfaction...
