The Symbian Foundation will take down its websites in less than a month.

Recent research from GfK, meanwhile, has shown Nokia Symbian users are not particularly loyal, with 24 per cent of owners surveyed saying they would not necessarily stick with the manufacturer.

Apple users were the most loyal at 59 per cent, while RIM had 35 per cent loyalty and Google Android 28 per cent. Microsoft had the lowest with 21 per cent.
