Python on Nokia Phones ?

[Mark Doukidis]

Is it DEAD ?

An exciting prospect when I first heard of Nokia's proposal.

I thought there would be a few more postings here since the idea first
surfaced around Jan 2004.

Maybe I missed something.
Can anyone on the pilot program make a comment ?
Please give me reason to hope ?

Do realize that giants like Nokia move slow and make a minimum amount
of noise about what they are doing. They (Nokia) seemed pretty excited
about the prospects back in the June workshop:

I think I'll try to check out whether they have come up with a new
version. There are lots of changes happening with S60 / Symbian OS in
general ATM, so I wouldn't be surprised if they chose to delay Python
a little bit, at least as far as shipping it with the phones goes.
