	Symbian handsets hit 10M in Japan \| InfoWorld \| News \| 2006-07-12 \| By Martyn Williams, IDG News Service
		Of the 35 models of handset sold with the Symbian OS in Japan since 2003, almost all are locked, and so users are deprived of one of the key benefits of owning a smartphone: the ability to install their own applications.
		Combine that with the absence of any Symbian branding and the result is that most owners are likely unaware that their phone runs Symbian.
		Panasonic is a shareholder in Symbian and uses the OS in models for overseas, but in Japan it and NEC both rely on Linux in their high-end handsets.
