In this podcast we cover:

Angry Birds wins 'best game' on Ovi Store. Why is Angry Birds not on older Symbian devices?
Discussion of Qt on Samsung (and Sony Ericsson)
Vodafone Mobile Clicks competition
Listener questions (all leading to some additional discussion):
- @Ew4n: How would America react to Nokia announcing 2-top of the range Android handsets (answer: it wouldn't ever happen, but if it... not much).
- @PhotoProLive: Is FizWoz legitimate?
- @BigBrova: What do you think of the quality of software for Nokia services (Ovi Store, Nokia Messaging etc.) ?
- @JamesBurland: How should Nokia advertise the N8 in the mainstream media?
- Debate on the impact of quality has on 'user experience'. So... would you rather have a device as buggy as the N97 with the UI of the iPhone, or a device that looks like the N97 with almost perfect quality?
