One of Nokia’s most well known mobile phone lines is the N-Series. This series has seen many of Nokia’s flag bearing mobile devices. Though this series is also notorious for producing some of Nokia’s odd novelty phones, most of the models on this line are solid and excellent phones that work well and generally look good. Two particular models, the N900 and N97 are well known in the mobile community for being really good mobile phones.
N-Series and Symbian
As with all models in Nokia, the N-series utilizes Symbian software technology. This is a Java based programming technology that is developer friendly and is easy to use for many application developers. The current Symbian community is comprised of developers, both independent and corporate with varying skill levels and interests who are constantly contributing to the pool of resources that will further enhance using Symbian technology.
The N900 and PUSH
Nokia recently started the PUSH program for the N900 of the N-series. PUSH encourages developers, hackers and other programmers to tap into the vast potential of the N900 and encourages them to look for new possibilities, develop new apps and even find security risks and vulnerabilities. This is a very wise move for Nokia since it allows them to test their system in a level not achievable within the capabilities of most manufacturers. The creation of third party software is also encouraged because developers feel the support of the company throughout the programming process.
The Future of the N-Series
The N-Series is composed mostly of smart phones that focus greatly on having a wide variety of applications and ever progressive software. PUSH also allows Nokia to get a really good look at the side of the consumer market that is rarely seen by corporate marketing studies. Client created content is truly making the world of mobile technology different.
