Company Statement Sendo has terminated its Smartphone development program utilising the Microsoft Windows Powered Smartphone 2002 software.
As a result, Sendo regrets to announce that it will not be shipping the Z100 Smartphone.
It has been a very difficult decision for Sendo given its leadership position in the development of smart devices. We are disappointed that we will not be able to ship the Z100 given the high level of interest shown in the device.
Although a set back, we are pleased to announce today that we have licensed the Series 60 platform from Nokia for our smartphone category. We believe this will create the opportunity for us to continue as a lead player in the development of smartphone products for 2003.
SENDO CHOOSES NOKIA'S SERIES 60 PLATFORM FOR ITS SMART PHONES Thu Nov 7 2002 Sendo, a British mobile phone manufacturer, today announced that the company has decided to license Series 60 Platform from Nokia for its smart phone category. The Series 60 is a software platform for feature- and application rich smart phones that Nokia licenses to mobile handset manufacturers. The platform is optimised to run on top of the Symbian OS. Sendo joins as the newest member to the Series 60 licensing community with Matsushita, Samsung, Siemens and Nokia.
"Earlier this fall we reviewed our smart phone strategy. While our mission of providing customers with feature-rich and ubiquitous devices remains unaltered, seeing that the Series 60 fully embraces both our mission and the new strategy we decided to approach Nokia," said Hugh Brogan, Chief Executive Officer of Sendo Holdings Plc. "The platform utilises open standards and technologies, such as MMS and Java , jointly developed by the industry. The platform is robust, yet uniquely flexible, bringing great benefits to licensees, operators, developers and consumers."

We see that a combination of Sendo's technical expertise and growing market presence will bring significant contribution to the mobile market with Series 60 devices.

Way to go. You managed to waste a mod point on a posting to a duplicate story. And it was not even your typical dup, it was a dup of a story already on the front page.
Way to use your mod points for a productive purpose.
In quite a few states if you work in a Union shop, you have to pay dues to that Union with no choice in the matter. Including having the union take your dues and use them to campaign against issues you agree with.
This isn't picking your pocket?

Maya and related products. There is more to OpenGL than just that Quake III.
There are ecological objections to everything!
What Nova Scotia Power doesn't want is greenpeace going up there in its DIESEL powered boat.
A large portion of the "eco brigade" would be happier with us living as we lived in the 1700's.
Thank You. That will help a lot.
Now that this is over, when do you plan to have subselects added to MySQL?
You know, the moderators are insane. Looked into the face of Cthulhu for too long insane.

Damn. Maybe it is time I quite reading
You do understant that MySQL is not much more than a filesystem with a SQL interface, don't you?
Why? It's not like the international community every does anything. All the ever do is talk about doing it...
Then compile a complete list of all know past abuses by the US goverment in regards to abuse of power and the like.
Document your work. Do not include anything that can not be proven. If you do, the critics will use those items to write off the entire report.

But you forget the 2nd adm. You know the one that says we have a RIGHT to have guns.
If supporting the 2nd adm makes the NRA (right extremist) what does that make people that support the other 9 adms in the Bill of Rights?
If you included all that voted for the DMCA it would make the D's look as bad as the R's.
