Bad news bears for Symbian/Nokia lovers — look like Nokia will be testing the limits of what “3rd quarter” means. While the Finnish phone manufacturer hasn’t officially announced a specific release date (instead opting for a rather vague “late 3rd quarter”), late August has come to the more or less “unofficial official” date, with numerous outfits pointing towards it.
