托福阅读材料之诺基亚宣布放弃塞班平台

From a Nokia 808 Pureview launch event in Milan, guys over Nokialino have managed to get some information about the future of Symbian from Nokia marketing manager Mattia Fiorin.

Here is the transcript of info they got about Symbian from Nokia marketing manager Mattia Fiorin in a Q&A session at the event:

1. FP1 for N8 will be available soon, and will include, in particular, the updating of the browser to the new version 8.2 and Nokia Social.

2. The update will still be small compared to the official FP1, already available for the S^3 terminals that support it, adapted to the processor on the N8 (already exploited almost to the limit with the latest updates).

3. Probably there will be a minimal overclock the processor (as far as possible for ARM11 mounted on N8).

4. According Fiorin always, then, N8 will also FP2 (as Carla was shelved ).

Well, there is a good news and the bad one – Good for Nokia N8 users as they are getting lite version of Nokia FP1 and FP2 updates and bad news is the next version of Symbian update codenamed ‘Nokia Carla’ has been cancelled. Instead, Nokia will come out with Nokia Belle FP2.

【新闻快讯】5月24日，在诺基亚新款手机808在米兰举行的发布会上，诺基亚意大利的产品市场经理Mattia Fiorin透露了一些关于塞班系统未来走向的信息。从获得的信息来看，有一个一个坏消息。对诺基亚N8的用户来说是，N8会有简化版本的FP1和FP2的更新。而坏消息是，原定的塞班系统的更新机型Nokia Carla被搁置了。它将被Nokia Belle FP2取代。

该人士透露一些Symbian未来的消息，诺基亚808上市后搭载的系统为Symbian Belle FP1，而诺基亚很快将为其提供Symbian Belle FP2的更新，之后该平台就不会再获得任何更新了。

当然了，这也意味着诺基亚最迟今年年底就要停止对Symbian的更新。这个消息听起来的确有点突然，因为不少消息都称，他们2014年才会完全放弃该平台。此前曝光的路线图显示，Belle之后分别是Carla和Donna，而Donna除了支持720p屏幕外，还搭载双核处理器。从目前情况来看，诺基亚808将会是Symbian的一款旗舰机型了。
