Symbian Anna update finally rolling out to US Nokia devices
For those living in the US, it looks like the Symbian Anna update has finally started making its rounds to you guys. Owners of the Nokia C6-01, E7 and N8 will be able to download the Symbian Anna update for their devices, which includes a new user interface, a new on-screen QWERTY keyboard, new browser, new maps and new versions of the Ovi Store and QuickOffice, along with a host of other improvements.
Granted that Nokia’s presence in the US may not be as strong as in Europe and other parts of the world, we’re guessing Nokia and Symbian loyalists in the US will still probably appreciate this update.
After the Nokia 808 Pureview in all its MegaPixel goodness got an award last week, the company has just announced that it will be hitting stores sometime this May. Seeing as we’re already in the second day of the month, we’ll just have to wait until a more precise release date comes up for the Symbian-Belle powered device with its massive 41MP camera. From the announcement, the first countries that will receive the device will be Russia and India with additional countries coming in a later announcement.

As far as everyone could have seen Nokia and Microsoft have focused their partnership into ensuring that Nokia’s Windows Phone range of products are the best that they could possibly be. Apparently things have been happening in the works and both companies have remembered the Symbian Belle range of products which only came out recently. Microsoft has released its Office applications to Nokia’s previous operating system of choice. The Microsoft Office apps that were included for the mobile devices were Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

The Nokia PureView that was shown off by Nokia in MWC this year is much like any other smartphone nowadays except for two things. The first is that it is running on Nokia’s Symbian OS. The second is what users will want this device for; a whopping 41MP camera. Besides that, the phone will have a 1.3 GHz single-core chip, a 4-inch display with a 360×640 (nHD) resolution, 512MB of RAM, 16GB of storage space which can be expanded with a microSD and a Pentaband modem.
