“As we committed when we launched this blog, Nokia is making the
latest version of the Symbian platform’s source code available to
our platform development partners. We are excited about the
completion of the transfer period, during which code delivery from
the Symbian Foundation has now been replaced by an open and direct
model from Nokia.

“As Nokia announced in February, our plan is for Windows Phone
to be our primary smartphone strategy. While Nokia and Microsoft
are working on a definitive agreement between the two companies and
we have begun working on product collaboration, Nokia plans to ship
at least 150 million Symbian smartphones and to continue deliver
innovation and software updates to the platform. To achieve all of
this, we need the collaboration with our platform development
partners and continue to value an open way of working.”
