I'm loving the concept of it. I'm all for it...I just need Symbian to actually push out a device with their new OS soon...]]>Nov 4th 2009 9:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 9:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/
1) Symbian foundation should get of their fat rear-ends and launch real products, like, you know, an OS called Symbian^2. How long have these guys been promising us this?

2) Calling this a response to Google's navigation announcement is really silly Engadget. You make it sound as if Nokia (because, really, that's who is the driver behind Symbian Foundation) is playing catchup. Nokia has had Nokia maps, with full voice navigation for many years now, and the latest version, Ovi Maps, has also started doing the rounds. I think it's Google that's playing catchup here.]]>Nov 4th 2009 9:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 9:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/
It's not Symbian's job release devices with the OS, it's up to Nokia, Sony, Samsung and the rest.]]>Nov 4th 2009 9:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/I'm a real google enthousiast but Nokia (Ovi) maps has been doing what google navigation does now for a long time now.]]>Nov 4th 2009 1:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/
This is a nice concept. Since Symbian isn't adding it...I think someone should...

Oh wait...don't we have Layar. Well...someone needs to add that as a layer on Layar then. Thanks.]]>Nov 4th 2009 9:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/
You know I looked everywhere for where they said that, but I just couldn't find it. Why is that?

"To be clear, this is a concept video of a future Symbian UI. This is not the UI for Symbian^4 (although big UI changes are currently planned for this release). However, many of the ideas and principles that appear in the video will likely feature in the future implementations of the Symbian platform.

"An artist's concept of the future of the Symbian UI, also shown in Lee Williams' keynote at SEE 2009 on 27 October 2009. This concept is not part of the Symbian UI Roadmap, but we hope some of the cool features and effects will make it into our reference UI and/or delivered handsets.""

Maybe this is just Engadget being a douche again...]]>Nov 4th 2009 9:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/
1. Kinetic scrolling (in Symbian^2)

Only reason it is still tops is Nokia just floods the market with this cheap phones or not so cheap phones that has an outdated, 80's UI. Someone needs to just put this to the grave like like Toshiba with HD-DVD.]]>Nov 4th 2009 11:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 12:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 12:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 12:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 2:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/symbian-foundation-teases-augmented-reality-social-networking-to/Nov 4th 2009 2:46PM
