The introduction of a SQL database offers developers a well known interface for storing and retrieving high-cardinality application data.
35 new camera features include support for tilt sensors, preset image enhancements, panorama stitching, and red-eye reduction.
New Symbian smartphones will enable users to be more productive and cost effective with Wi-Fi to 3G connection roaming.
