There doesn't need to be. Anyone who has been following the mobile geo progress at all knew that it was based on the sender engine and runs only on Win Mobile and there were never plans to release a Nokia ready version at launch. Whether it gets ported later I have no idea but there's really no need. As a side note to this, get ready for Nokia to get off the simbien band wagon at some point. Through my consulting work I've heard through the pipeline that Nokia is going to start looking at win mobile much more closely. Win mobile devices, especially the ones from HTC are starting to make head way against the crackberries which is something the other hand set providers really like and want to cash in on. Win Mobile is also holding up favorably against the IPhone in business circles as well. I really strongly think the over all market is going to settle out with three OS's. Win Mobile, Android and the IPhone. RIM is not going to with stand companies like Apple, Microsoft and most importantly Google. Let's hope the adaptive software companies realize this and move things like the KNFB reader on to win mobile as well when the camera and image processing is there. I'd hate to see a huge segment of our community trapped in an under represented OS again. Go CF and Sender.;) Oh and Nokia phones are ugly. (just my opinion)

I am disturbed that in all the verbiage there is not a statement that the product does not work with the Mobile Speak series 60 product even though this product is mentioned in the article.

Infact it will not be as the Sendero SDK will only run on Windows Mobile basedsmartphones. So I am not sure where you got that information from but mobile Geo will NOT run on the Symbian based N-82. Hope this clears this up. Charles.
