History[edit] Logo of Symbian OS until the Symbian Foundation was formed in 2008 With no major competition in the smartphone OS then (Palm OS and Windows Mobile were comparatively small players), Symbian reached as high as 67% of the global smartphone market share in 2006.[26] Despite its sizable market share then, Symbian was at various stages difficult to develop for: First (at around early-to-mid-2000's) due to the complexity of then the only native programming languages OPL and Symbian C++ and of the OS itself; then the obstinate developer bureaucracy, along with high prices of various IDEs and SDKs, which were prohibitive for independent or very small developers; and then the subsequent fragmentation, which was in part caused by infighting among and within manufacturers, each of which also had their own IDEs and SDKs.
Nokia became the major contributor to Symbian's code, since it then possessed the development resources for both the Symbian OS core and the user interface.

Nokia today ushered in a new era in high-end smartphone imaging with the Nokia 808 PureView.
This is the first smartphone to feature Nokia PureView imaging technologies, bringing together high resolution sensors, exclusive Carl Zeiss optics and Nokia developed algorithms, which will support new high-end imaging experiences for future Nokia products. The Nokia 808 PureView features a large, high-resolution 41 megapixel sensor (7728 x 5368 pixels) with high-performance Carl Zeiss optics and new pixel oversampling technology. At standard resolutions (2/3, 5 and 8 megapixels) this means the ability to zoom without loss of clarity and capture seven pixels of information, condensing into one pixel for the sharpest images imaginable. At high-resolution (38 megapixel maximum) it means the ability to capture an image, then zoom, reframe, crop and resize afterwards to expose previously unseen levels of details. The device measures 123.9 x 60.2 x 13.9 mm (95.5 cc) and weighs 169 grams. OSymbian.com. Psion and EPOC Emulators. This page contains information about the Psion / Symbian ER5 emulator - a PC application that allows you to run Psion applications and files Symbian supply SDKs, which contain WINS emulators to allow development in a PC environment.
For a full installation of the SDK, allow around 80MB. The ER5 SDK was developed for Windows NT, but will run on Windows 95/98/ME/XP. We've also been told that the ER5 SDK works on Linux using the Wine Windows emulator. SDKs are available for developers using the C++, Java or OPL programming languages. ER5 SDK, from Symbian Where do I get the EPOC SDKs? Using existing data on the ER5 and Revo emulators If you have existing files or applications from a Psion, you need to move these to the appropriate folder on the PC, so that the emulator can find them. Installing the Psion Revo SDK The Revo SDK is also available from Symbian (see above). Firstly, you need to install the ER5 emulator.
