It always amazes me when people make sweeping statements like this. Are they beleiving their own business consultants and marketing department or are they hoping that we are all idiots and will rush out to buy a symbian device?

It may replace laptops for people who carry them around a lot but for the large number of pc gamers, downloaders and media streamers there will always be a place for a meaty pc tucked away in a spare room.
