Who am I?
I've been poking my nose in mobile software development since 2000, starting on what was then the ER5 and Ericsson's R380. Since then I've been doing a bit of everything on the S60 Platform, from learning its bits and pieces to helping others find their way trough the maze.

Leo Laporte knows the truth about S60 ?

I've hear it so many times that I surprise myself for not believing it by now. Bashing S60 is by now the most popular sport, at least until the Olympic Games are started in Beijing. S60 is said to be difficult to learn (when compared to the Finnish language), difficult to understand (compared to the string theory) and definitely uglier than Miss South Carolina.
This week Leo Laporte had something to say about S60, you would not believe what he had to say in his "this Week in Tech" podcast, episode 139: 4-TWiTty. If you want to go straight to the chase forward to minute 59:50 (easier with the Nokia Podcasting application than on his web site). So, is he right?

it's hard to win fashion pro's over on s60 it's true, they are not technically minded and the interface is not really pretty compared to the stylish iphone. what people dont realize is the power of the platform and what it can DO for you if you are a mobile professional!
