Symbian is keeping mobile Microsoft at bay
,----[ Quote ]
| A super confident Symbian is claiming to have kept the Beast of Redmond
| at bay with a 65 to 70 per cent share of the smartphone sector, according
| to CEO, Nigel Clifford.

| [...]
|
| The snag is that Symbian is very dependent on its key customers. Nokia
| accounts for around 70 per cent of sales, while circa 28 per cent of
| sales come from Japan. It's worth noting that two major Japanese mobile
| phone suppliers - NEC and Panasonic - are key founders of the Mobile
| Linux Forum.
