Series 60 and Good Technology.
I love my Nokia 6600. And I love my RIM device running the Good server software. So I was extremely excited to
read that Nokia and Good had linked up.
My question is: why the hell Nokia is moving so damn slow? Nokia has the lead in the phone market, but PalmOne
owns the North American smartphone market. The Treo 650 is about to get released; the 600 has already gobbled up a big chunk of consumer loyalty. Good is far superior to the Blackberry Enterprise Server; Nokia will get left in the dust if don't they move quickly and release a Series 60 mail client that can work with Good. How hard can this be?
Update: After a conversation with someone in sales at Good, its pretty clear that they are not moving any product to market before mid-year. It sounds like it will be in conjunction with some kind of converged device, possibly with a qwerty keypad, and unfortunately it is unlikely there will be any kind of symbian 60 software download to enable existing phones.
