according to gsmarena.com
All Symbian fans and users might want to sit
down while reading this. According to the Product
Marketing Manager for Nokia South Europe
Mathias Fiorin, Symbian Carla has been cancelled. Nokialino, an Italian Nokia fan site, claims to have
spoken with Mathias Fiorin, so the infomation
should be pretty accurate. He says Carla is now known as FP1. But it is not
just a name change - both upcoming Feature
Packs won't bring major updates, HD screens and
dual-core CPU support. Basically Belle is the last
major Symbian release the world will get. If all of this is true then Symbian is as good as
dead. There is no better way to put this – there
will be no Carla or Donna. The final update will be
Belle’s upcoming Feature Pack 2 and, as you can
guess, that will hardly be a game changer. We have to wait for an official announcement,
though it does makes sense – as the Symbian
market share diminishes rapidly, Nokia is putting
all its efforts into Windows Phone.

Belle is fine right now tho.

the horrible vkb can be mod by here : http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2357508

the HD screen/dual core isn't needed..that's for geeks that crazy over epen0r benchmark, not normal phone user.

Belle is NOT fine.
Look at Nokia Store, no new games or apps that can be found at Google Play or App Store.

Now to me Symbian phones are as good as normal phones for basic users

That's not Belle problem

agree with you about Nokia store..but too bad you buy phone just to play games

Not buy phone just to play games, but got better than don't have ma, at least when you are bored can kill time. Plus all those apps for Android and iOS also dont have

about time they kill the dinosaur...

FP 2 gonna be the last update. I bet no more Symbian phones coming out already. Fully focus on WP7

its sad but what to do ... you finished bought every single game in the store..
its gonna be WP7 in the future, symbian and meego harmattan should stay as Qt lover programmer

Yea, WP7 for Nokia. But I hate the fact that the current Lumia series might not be getting Apollo. Which is kinda sad as they won't get a major upgrade and no custom roms around

damn letme get this straight already.
Carla and Donna news is not confirmed yet, and so does Apollo not going to current Lumia. There is no concrete/official source yet. GSMarena IS NOT official source.
Custom rom for WP7 _tango_ already available, go google.

Carla and Donna news not confirm and not official, but most probably true bro. Also considering that they ditched Symbian to Accenture even makes sense.

Yes Tango custom rom got because Lumia series planned to get Tango anyway, but Apollo don't know la

I do meant by Carla ^& Donna axed and replaced by Belle FP1 and FP2, its not confirmed yet.

But of course its true symbian will be dead, they already announced it last year

Yeah, plus FP1 and FP2 won't bring any major upgrades.

Haha announced last year, confirmed this year. RIP symbian

How can you confirm it is really dead now ..??

Maybe it will .. But until 2016 , Symbian will be alive

Not really dead, but no more major improvement only

So, the title is misleading

Not really, just suddenly got new announcement

shows that, we can't believe everything that appear on internet..

As long as no official statement from Nokia / Symbian , the other's report is just rumours..

Haha problem is, when they make the report, macam yes. Say what from Nokia official, very reliable blablabla

So sad
