Phone?

Does anyone know of any phones that are scheduled to use the new Symbian OS v9? Especially Sony Ericsson?
Considering SE doesnt have any running a standard Symbian platform, I dont think they will have any running on this either. Look for Nokia's yet to be announced 6680 that is suppose to be an upgrade of the 6630 to have this as its got 2 cams on it. ...

Does this mean synchronization that works?!

😲 PC Suite needs some serious improvement or maybe we'll get a 3rd Party App that works.

Support for higher resolutions for Series 60??

It doesn't mention this in the press release, but in previous press releases, they mentioned that future versions would support QVGA and 320x320. I really hope they don't overlook this.
