HTC not averse to Symbian

Published by at

Interested to spot over on ARNnet, HTC's president stating that they wouldn't rule out working with Symbian OS. Not that it's likely or imminent, but interesting nevertheless, with HTC making most of the world's Windows Mobile hardware. Note also the shipping figure at the end of the piece, which agrees with the Symbian OS market share figures in previous AAS analysis (60% or so).
"The company, which has been a longtime partner of Microsoft in the mobile business, could also expand to using the Symbian OS. The company said it would only use Symbian if it sees value in doing so, for example, if operators placed orders with it for phones using the Symbian OS. "
