Rumour: N-Series to drop Symbian for Maemo

By Terence Huynh on November 18th, 2009

RUMOUR MILL: Nokia might be ditching the recently open-sourced Symbian OS to its new Linux-based Maemo OS for all of its future N-Series phones, the high end and feature-packed phones in its entire phone line-up; according to one little slip up by its marketing team at an official meet-up for the N900. Turns out, this might be a smart move by the Finnish mobile maker, as the current OS, Symbian S60 5th Edition, pretty much is crap in terms of user interface when compared to the Maemo.
