The latest word from Nokia is that it’s quite possible their N-Series handsets would be deviating from their usual Series 60 OS and instead incorporating Maemo. According to reports, the marketing team for Maemo mentioned that Nokia plans to adopt this new operating system for their N-series mobile range of multimedia handsets. They seemed quite sure that this is the new way to go after the N900 has made its appearance. Having had a chance to see what it’s really like with the N900 at Nokia’s N-Tour-Age event here in Mumbai, I have to admit that it does make a certain amount of sense. However, would the regular S60 users be so quick to adopt the new OS without question? That’s a big question mark. It looks pretty good and quite user friendly on a large touchscreen enabled device and I’m quite curious to see how functional it’ll be on a smaller device without a touchscreen. Log into our forums thread here and let us know what you think of Nokia’s decision to switch from S60 to the Maemo OS in their N-series devices. |
