Nokia and Sony Ericsson withdraw handsets

,----[ Quote ]
| Nokia were left with egg on their faces today 
| when they, along with Sony Ericsson had to 
| withdraw two devices from the UK market due to 
| software issues with Nokia's Symbian mobile 
| platform. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| Sony Ericssons official statement is very vague 
| however we are aware of issues with many aspects 
| of the Saito handset, from quality issues with 
| the onboard camera and even software freezing 
| and operating system crashes.
| 
| [...]
| 
| This looks like the first signs that the Symbian 
| platform has had its day, especially with 
| Nokia's own dramatic move to the Linux Maemo 
| platform.

Sony Ericsson, Nokia pull handsets

,----[ Quote ]
| The platform, which powers both simple handsets 
| and smartphones, has seen increased competition 
| from Google's Android and other Linux-based 
| mobile platforms - so much so that Nokia's 
| latest and greatest handset moves away from the 
| company's once staple software to the Linux-
| based Maemo platform.
