I would love to see an emulator or have the option of running it seperately via dual boot option. I have loads of apps, some which I still use on my old N73 such as TomTom with speed cameras, voice recorders, call/sms blockers etc.
Is anyone thinking or currently working on this idea of an emulator or dualboot option? It would be good to do so as it can cater for many apps that others have been requesting or hoping for but doubt they will ever get done.

I doubt this thread will ever come true... Well you see symbian was opened a long time ago and nobody bothered to port it on n900. Now that most of the sources and stuff were closed down(not totally) again how much chances that this would ever happen?

Symbian^4 would be more awesome for n900's boot options. with it's completely new UX and all.

on the contrary. you should look deeper into your symbian news sources.
blogs only briefly said not to think of symbian^4 "anymore" coz the transition will be "seamless through updates".
symbian^4 actually does exist. it will only retain the symbian name, will be totally different (total rewrite),will not be using AVKON as its base and is more intended on nokia's Q4 handsets running dual core chips.
the updates you were referring to goes as follows:
PR2.0: February 15th (during MWC) – The 50+ Major Update pack.
PR3.0: Summer. PR 3.0 is when Symbian UI completely changes to what was expected to be Symbian^4. This time last year it appeared that Symbian^3 handsets would not be able to update to Symbian^4 but what with the changes, Symbian^3 handset users are now going to receive ALL updates as and when they’re ready.
