Yeah on paper Symbian looks good but in reality it's a horrible OS, the user experience is far worse than iPhone OS and Android.
I used to own a N95, even though I lost alot of features with the iPhone I would have never went back to the Nokia.
It's no surprise that Nokia's share in the smartphone market is dropping.”

I still use a Nokia for my main business phone (previously an N95 8gb, now an E66). The main reason for this is that despite the fact that the iPhone is great in most ways I have issue with reception sensitivity, which on any of the iPhones doesnt compare to my Nokia. Aside from this, if Apple sort out the radio performance, I'd switch without hesitation.
Incidentally I switched from an iPhone 3GS to a 2G because the reception is better (and I couldnt justify keeping something costing £450 if it wasnt going to be my main phone), and it is quite capable of running email, voip app, skype and tune in (internet radio app) all at the same time without any problem.....imo difference between 2G and 3GS is marginal, unless you have a high value on compass and GPS functions, and 2G is certainly capable of multi-tasking.
Certainly running an email app, a voip app, and streaming music at the same time is a pretty good indication of capability imo
