Oh! Ohk!

Maybe!

Obviously you know better than me!

Thanks for correcting me!

Some Japanese companies have been using S^2, right?

Another thing, is Symbian OS different from S60?

This Wikipedia is really confusing me.

It says Symbian^1 was the first release combining Symbian OS and S60v5. So our devices are not S^1? Is S60v5 also different from S^1?

Maybe 5800, 5530, 52xx phones are S60v5 and N97, C6 are S^1.

C6 is S^1 with almost all libraries from S^2.

Yes, even my quote is not proper. But then why does it have to say: Symbian^1...incorporates Symbian OS and S60 5th Edition

It is the following Symbian^1 5800,5530,5250,5802,5230,5233,5228 ,n97,n97 mini ,c6 ,c5-03  and the rest Symbian^2 only used in Japan and China s60 v5 is Symbian^1 until the s60 project was discontinued to make Symbian^3

Its high time!! Nokia isn't making Symbian open-source also it is not supporting it anymore.. (except some minor tweaks)

The use will be to reduce these values so that battery increases..

Another thing, is Symbian OS different from S60?

Yes Symbian OS and S60 are two different things. Symbian 9.4 is the name of the actual operating system whereas S60 is the name of the UI layer on top of the OS.

And what is the difference between Symbian OS 9.4, S60 5th Edition (I guess its the UI) and Symbian^1..??

Symbian 9.4 is the last version of Symbian^1. Then they switched over to Symbian^3 which are named as Anna, Belle etc. I dont know if there are version numbers corresponding to Anna and Belle. And S60v5 is the fifth version of the S60 interface.

Sorry for tooo many questions, but I have another question.

What is the interface of Symbian^3 called?

And is Symbian^3, Symbian OS 9.5 or what?
