Symbian Foundation says no handsets until 2010

logo_alliances_s60.gifThe Symbian Foundation will be the non-profit bearers of the S60 OS torch, now that Nokia is opening things up.

Kai Öistämö, Nokia’s head of devices, has confirmed that the first devices using the open incarnation of the OS will debut some time in 2010, shortly after the S60 code is fully open sourced.

The Foundation will be properly set up in early 2009 and release the first few open components of the S60 platform.   Öistämö said that all existing development work done on S60 3rd Edition and Symbian v9 will be forwardly compatible with the code realsed by the Symbian Foundation.
