No, HERE is what YOU need to do: Every other off-topic post skip licking MicroSh*t a$$ and STFU.
Now really, you need to get a bit of grip and some grain of common sense. Like a plethora of ppl have pointed out before, Stinger platform is NOT mainstream stuff. In other words you won't see any time soon (tm) grandma with a Stinger powered phone, anytime soon (the "less then curtain" -- to put it mildly -- M$ attitude towards OEM being _not_ the smallest factor).
Not that I like Nokia so much better, but compared with Stinger, Symbian is _much_ more mature, proven, and used in gazillion of phones worldwide so it is in much better position than Stinger. Obviously, the 800 lb gorilla (M$), with its deep pockets and "ramming down competitors" attituted has still have some chances to burry it. But Symbian won't go down without a fight, that's for sure. And the fact that Nokia "has seen the light" and is open sourcing their developm. platform is _more_ than welcome. Now _that_ is "innovation".
Ah, and a last note: FYI, more than3 yrs ago, a phone based on a Symbian platform (i.e. Nokia 9110) could use custom WAVs as ringing signals (and it was darn cool, I had one for 3 yrs). But, given the "high end" target of those phones it didn't quite "catch" to lower end phones. And I really doubt it ever will. This segment is what (I guess) Jorgen was talking about (standardizing phone ringing signals) and this is what "got you laughing". And make you post an utterly stupid off-topic subject.
