Yep, this is partially a misunderstaning.

Nokia consists of 4 business groups:
1. Mobile Phones
2. Multimedia
3. Enterprise Solutions
4. Networks

Only Multimedia business group's products are referred as "multimedia computers". In fact, they are increasingly starting to look like ones.

The 1000 series come from the Mobile Phones BG, and they are naturally called phones.

We might be dumb sometimes in the naming business, but not that dumb :)
I think the S60 application situation is quite healthy. As far as I know, so far more than 3000 applications have been released for S60. Unfortunately, these old S60 applications do not work in new S60 devices with S60 3rd Edition. They require at least recompiling.

I just wrote about this problem:

I hope we can ensure the compatibility without confusing the end-users too much.
Heh... Other minor product name error in the ad: Nokia recently rebranded Series 60 to S60.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
