Mobile Industry Review have just announced the winners of their 2008 Awards, and in the incredibly competitive Best Mobile Blogger category, the All About Symbian team have come out as winners. While Rafe, Steve and myself were named in the show, we couldn't have managed it without all our other contributors and readers throughout the year. This one really is for you all.

Ben Smith, on awarding the prize, summed up the judges thoughts rather succinctly: "[All About Symbian is] always interesting to read, always factually accurate, always the most complete coverage of any Symbian related blog on the internet. Congratulations guys, we absolutely love it, we love the podcast, keep on producing great content, we're looking forward to next year."

Also in the category were The S60 Nokia Blog, The Boy Genius Report, Stephen Fry and The Outsider.

Rafe Blandford, speaking on behalf of the whole team, offered thanks to the team at Mobile Industry Review. "It is a pleasure to receive an award from our friends at Mobile Industry Review, to be recognised by fellow mobile bloggers is a special honour. All About Symbian is a team effort so a big thank you to all the contributors to the site - and that includes our all important readers. I'd also like to thank the Mobile Industry Review team and I know we'll be looking forward to them continuing their track record of excellence in the next year!"

With 17 awards in the show, ranging from Best Gadget and Mobile Handset, to the Mobile Industry Villain of the year the twenty minute video podcast might be just the thing for you over your afternoon coffee.
