As we told you before, Nokia has united few of the people involved in making 5th edition happen, and these have spoken about the platform in a podcast.
You can hear it above, and also download or embed it on your own blog.
A PDF slide is also published, which you can download here, and in the same document, a rumour has come up of a Nokia Communicator with touchscreen.
A touchscreen Commmunicator is inevitable, and would really be a great addition to the manufacturer’s portfolio, especially if it looks that cool, but in the document, it does confirm that it’s just a concept.
This is the installation package for S60 5th Edition SDK for Symbian OS. This SDK enables application development in Symbian C++, Open C/C++, Java™, and Web technologies for devices based on the S60 platform. The SDK is based on S60 5th Edition and Symbian OS 9.4. The SDK includes the all key resources needed for application development (documentation, API reference, examples, and an emulator), excluding an IDE.
Nokia has made publicly available the Touch UI platform, also known as S60 fifth edition SDK (Software Developer Kit). Nokia says that the SDK will enable programmers to deal with high resolution display applications, apps that are controlled with the finger or stylus, control sensors, play with and build widgets, and there will be greater support for Open C++.
