Hello
Nokia’s smart phone is nothing when compare to other smartphone, you buy one and after a while you see that Nokia no longer give support to the latest firmware version. For instance i bought Nokia N95 8 GB for 600 Sterlings when i was at UK, and had been a long term customer of Nokia for almost a decade. At that time it was the most expensive model they had, later on just after three years of usage they simply stop giving the updated version of firmware as a result am not able to run any kind of multi media applications, whereas my ipod still is able to run any kind of podcast available ever after a gap of 5 years.
Nokia just want to dump smart users in term of their innovation that never gets updated. As a result i am bought iPhone 4S and is very very happy with it as i can get anything in that device with minimum efforts.
I am saying this is to let the people be aware that Nokia in terms of Smart Phone is a long long way to get ahead of other smart phones in the market.
