Symbian Apps on OVI Store

[somnathbanik]

Hi,
As we know Nokia is concentrating more on Qt apps than that of Symbian C++ apps now a days. So my question is that, how long Nokia will accept Symbian C++ apps on OVI Store.


Any suggestion.

AFAIK, the answer would be as long as there are devices that can use the applications.

But I heard that Nokia is going to make all the default apps like the (calendar, Messaging, Call,etc) in Qt

And how would that relate to 3rd party application sales in Ovi store ?

[somnathbanik]

cause I think if Nokia comes up with most of the apps in Qt then the user will expect the same technology as the 3rd party app, and thus the client.

Nokia might do so (rewrite their Symbian/S60 phone apps using Qt), eventually (or not, depending on time, resources, their priorities; i.e., it might take some time before they're all rewritten).


All the device that support Qt (some version preinstalled only on Symbian^3 based models, and the maemo/Linux based N900):
