Now with Belle Symbian is finally back in the game and there is no reason anymore to get Android or WP. Belle with the N8 hardware runs circles around these two.
Belle is not a smartphone and Symbian is a dying platform. You cannot compare features phones against smartphones. BTW I suggest you try and use the Windows Phone before you make comical statements.
Belle as in Nokia Belle for the Symbian SMARTPHONE operating system is a smartphone platform for Nokia. Please get your facts straight before making such comical post. And for a dying platform it still has a whole lot of life in it as it still has the largest installed user base of any smartphone platform.
All the Android-powered phone series are already outdated. Androids just provide a Google browser and a different but very confusing UI, whereas Lumia is powered with a much better computing technology already proved better in front of the world. The power of Windows with the idea and material of Nokia will make out the most for browsing and utility to the most that you usually do with your PC.
