Want Kinetic Scrolling on 5800? Lets Sign a Petition
Does Nokia always punish early adopters? Thats the question almost every geek who has ever owned a Nokia device would have asked himself atleast with one of their products. While the saga of Internet tablets from Nokia is a classical example of the Finnish company being hard on early adopters, our very own 5800 hasn’t been spared either.
Nokia 5800, which was Nokia’s first touch screen device was also the first to feature the symbian fifth edition (s60 v5) OS. While s60 v5 has steadily matured into its present version, the number of devices featuring the OS has also increased over the last year. Nokia now has as many as 3 other (5530, N97, X6) models under its s60 v5 hood, all of which feature marginally improved features in the phone OS.
While we can go on and on in listing the features our dear 5800 misses, lets summarise some of the most sought after ones: Kinetic scrolling (the latest N97 firmware brings kinetic scrolling to most of the s60 v5 menus), widgetized homescreen (N97 and 5530). We have been requesting these features for quiet sometime now, and its been on the wishlist by 5800ers in several forums/blogs. A few 5800ers have been enterprising enough to file an online petition requesting the same and as loyal 5800ers, we deem its our duty to sign this petition.
As has been pointed out by the petitioners, all of the s60v5 phones from Nokia feature the same processor and hence hardware limitation is totally ruled out. And with the release of 5800 Navigation Edition, Nokia has officially extended the life span of our 5800s by atleast a year meaning phasing out 5800s is out of question as well. The only thing that we can think of thats preventing Nokia from releasing a firmware upgrade with advanced features is its pure reluctance to entertain early adopters.
While Nokia has a good track record when it comes to maintaining its market image, early adopters have been at the receiving end of the Finnish manufacturer. Let’s fix this jinx for good by signing this online petition which shouldn’t take more than a minute to sign.
