Mixed Signals
Any sufficiently advanced information is indistinguishable from noise

Here are some questions to mull over as you gently roast in the weekend's promised sunshine. Why did Nokia host a big conference recently and talk at great length about all their partnerships, plans and promises... but not mention Symbian? Why is the next version of Epoc called Epoc, when Symbian said that the name was dead and this version would be called Symbian ER 6.0? If Psion refuses to talk about their future products, why did one of their number say that the next Revo would have Epoc 6.0 in it?
There are mysteries aplenty here -- certainly more questions than there are Symbian products. Never a good sign.
