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.

Another interesting issue is that Palm has always made PDA's and more recently they started to make smartphones. On contrast, Nokia, Ericsson and all the others have made phones and now they are adding PDA'like capabilities to their phones. So I would say it's not fair to compare the number of apps that are available for Palm and Symbian.
But Symbian is gaining more and more each day. And more and more apps are written for it every day, as new interesting devices start to appear (see the new Nokia 7710, scheduled for the next year).
And, btw, Putty is available for Symbian also :-). Even though it is a pain in the ass to try to use it on something else than Nokia Communicator.
The software is there, you just have to be pacient enough to look for it.
