Future trends of S60-based devices development

As a prelude, we are going to look into the history of what is called one of the most spread platforms for smartphones - Series60, or simply the S60. By a platform here we mean a software shell including system tools, operating system and a set of user-applications. As a rule all Nokia-branded products, running on the same platform edition, retain similar hardware specifications (CPU type, frequency, circuit technique), though exception do occur. Differences in camera modules, storage size and supported memory card type are not crucial, as they might be embedded in any hardware platform.
