Chinook supports the (N800) hardware better than and is every bit as stable as Diablo, at least for me. I'm going back to Chinook ASAP. Symbian evolved from Epoch, which is the OS on my Psion Series 5. Psion first dropped hardware production and became a software-only company (renaming Epoch to Symbian and developing it far past the original capabilities of Epoch and licensing it to companies producing smartphones and PDAs), then sold off the OS to somebody else (Nokia?), and now has become "Psion Teklogix" (presumably by acquiring Teklogix) and is producing niche handhelds running Windows CE, of all things.
