So correctly said !! Sure wait till Nokia's Smartphones get smarter. All the current Nokia Phone Owners want to desperately disown it. Nokia is on a Path to suicide. For the Moment Looks Like Nokia is Dead They will do good in the cheap, low end mobile phone market. Not in the Smart Market. So Sad :-( Once a leader in the Mobile Technology Market is on a Path of its own downfall.

I used to own a Nokia N8, and though it has an excellent hardware, the software ruined it for me. I am not aware of any upcoming 'really smart' phone from Nokia. But as of now, for 25k you can get E7, and for around 21k, N8. X7 will be available soon for somewhat lower price than that. No idea about the WP7 devices from Nokia.

nokia Symbian Anna is not such a great upgrade over the existing Symbian^3, as far as i saw in the youtube videos. It is mostly cosmetic change. Still, i have not experienced it...wait till it launches

E6 and X7 will be the two Anna phones launching soon. Even the new 'Pink N8' comes with Anna OS. Others will get the update soon.

Saw somewhere that E6 is available for pre-order for some 17k, which is a very decent price.
