Siemens SX1 dumped?
From a very reputable source in my country(I�m not allowed to mention his name or position in the Siemens organization) I learned that the long awaited Symbian device from Siemens,the SX1 doesn�t have a bright future.
The device is going the be released in the stores very soon � The protos of the SX1 were sent for re-flashing in the Siemens head office in Germany,hopefully to return with a final version of the firmware.The doesn�t have a bight future part is that Siemens will no longer focus on the SX1 or Symbian in the future and that probably the SX1 will be produced in relatively small quantities.My source stated that Siemens received a better offer from Microsoft.When I asked what was better in Microsoft�s offer to my surprise he replied that the Symbian OS and Series 60 UI were too closed for their taste and that Microsoft gave them a more open OS.One good news for future SX1 owners is that they will be able to updates SX1�s firmware from home and that it will receive on par support with other Siemens handsets.
BTW:Can something be done to control warez exchange via the PM system?It really geting out of control.
