Recent news has covered the release of many new smart phones. We have the new Treo650, the new Sony P910, the new Audiovox PPC 6000, the new Blackberry 7100, and the new Nokia 6670. Recently, I've been speaking via email almost daily with my AT&T (now Cingular) rep. For some reason, the conversation always steers towards his wanting to push the latest from Nokia, Blackberry, etc.

Almost all Nokia phones use Symbian now so a huge number of people in US as wellas europe use symbian.
Another point and this is not just to you but to the author of the article is that it is Sony Ericsson and not Sony that makes P910, P800 e.t.c. It is a joint Venture of Ericsson and Sony Mobile Divisions.
Palm has called them their most serious threat.
I also was interested to know how many procent of people do even half the stuff the author do with your Treo? If it is even more than 5% I would think that Symbian makers would care.
For majority of the users the exterior and interior design is the most important issue and a Treo brick with a PDA interface is not just good enough.
And on application side, the best pda browser Opera has been available just for Symbian since 2 years. They released it recently for pocket pc.
