Hear what where?

[fatpendulum]

Keep in mind the source did not say if the phone will be announced at MWC, so this can still be real even if it's not announced next week


Still not buying it completely but stranger things have happened.

I would hope that it would considering the E75 boots with 60MB of free RAM and that device is FP2. The low RAM is so frustrating.

lol You may be right

[Mr. Fact]

Is it me or does the picture on GSMarena look different than the back of the leaked pictures last week?

I don't understand why they don't make another Meamo phone I had a lot of fun using the N900 it's so easy and awesome when it comes to multitasking. If it was just a little thinner..

[fatface]

Considering how overpriced some of their phones are (N97), extra RAM shouldn't have much of an economic impact.

[Georgiebob mk III]

It most certainly is not.

It's the first Symbian device where QT is going to be included as a top level widget set for building applications. As such, it's a pretty radical departure from ^1, and it creates the potential for all sorts of new and exciting bugs.

But *everyone* knows how well Nokia does software QA, so there's probably nothing to worry about. This phone is going to be as stable as a house of cards built on the wing of an airplane that's rolling for a takeoff.
