Yes... there are more devices running a Symbian OS than any other platform. However... not all of them are newer, touchscreen smartphones. A large portion of Symbian devices are still non-qwerty candybar phones and flip-phones.

So, an app written to take advantage of a new smartphone won't deliver the same experience on a tiny flip-phone... if you have to use the D-Pad to scroll around and type in an address using T9.

This is the exact same discussion that comes up whenever iPhone sales numbers are mentioned... "Symbian whoops Apple's ass!"

Absolutely correct... if you compare the few iPhone models to the hundreds of Symbian devices worldwide... smartphones, flip-phones, candybar phones, free phones. It's all relative.

There is a version of Google Maps for such phones as the Nokia N95... but does it work on all of those other Symbian phones?]]>Nov 11th 2009 4:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/Nov 11th 2009 4:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/-Taylor]]>Nov 11th 2009 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/

out of curiosity, is this only for G1s running the Android 2.0 rom? any chance this would work on an Eris? I'm thinking of picking one up, then returning it (I think you get 30 days) before the Dragon/Passion comes out. Although if I brick it or something, they probably wouldn't take it back haha]]>Nov 11th 2009 3:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/11/google-navigation-hacked-onto-t-mobile-g1/

My partner just got the Moment, and without the xda crowd working on the hacks/increasing functionality of the phone, things move slowly. The phone is fast, but still 1.5 and to tether takes some work.
