Further classified into:
Symbian OS 9.0:
IT was used by Nokia for testing purpose, no phone with OS 9.0 was launched.
Symbian OS 9.1:
Was released early 2005. It includes many new security related features, particularly a controversial platform security module facilitating mandatory code signing. Symbian argues that applications and content, and therefore a developer's investment, are better protected than ever; however others contend that the requirement that every application be signed (and approved) violates the rights of the end-user, the owner of the phone, and limits the amount of free software available. The new ARM EABI binary model means developers need to retool and the security changes mean they may have to recode.
Bluetooth 2.0 got introduced, it was 1.2 before that. This made bluetooth file sharing and streaming faster than ever before.
