I read on the AAS Devices section that :

Series 60 is a UI for mobile phones that are single-handed operated. In addition to voice communication, multimedia messaging, content browsing and application downloading are the design cornerstones of the platform.

But you can't use the n-gage with one hand, because the direction pad is on one side and the letters on the other and if you try with just your left hand it's very uncomfortable, mabey we should call it a series 60.1 mobile phone, or mabey it doesn't really matter 😃

the definition of a series 60 phone says, amongst other things that it can be used with one hand and the n gage is in the series 60 list, but you can't use the n gage with one hand

True, but then I think tha one-handed is more a "style issue" than a non-negotiable red line. The SX-1 isn't exactly a one-handed phone.
