DUBLIN, Ireland-- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Softening Up the Competition: Strategic Implications of Nokia's Decision to Open Up Symbian" report to their offering.
In June 2008, Nokia announced that it plans to buy all shares of Symbian it does not already own. In the future, the S60, UIQ, and MOAP interfaces will be integrated into a unified development platform, user interface and development tool.
