Even with its healthy market share, the Nokia-led, Symbian-based Series 60 mobile operating system continues to lag far behind both Palm and Microsoft in terms of third-party application popularity, with many users unaware that they are even running Symbian, much less of the aftermarket software that is available for their devices. Well Nokia is looking to change that perception with a recent branding change for the OS -- "S60: Open to new features" -- and a just-announced logo for developers to attach to their products -- "Developed for S60 devices" -- certifying Series 60 compatibility. In order to sport the new tag, developers must prove that their apps are Symbian Signed or Java Verified, as well as list the individual models that each program is compatible with. Please note that our use of this new logo is merely for illustrative purposes, and does not constitute a guarantee that Engadget Mobile will render properly on your S60 handset.
