Of all the research I've done, Nokia just can't do it...
The second thing is the phone's insistance to change all my appointments time if I change my timezone on the phone. Someone has explained the rationale behind it, but it makes no sense to me. It'd be good if I (the user) can have the option to not have the phone being this overly helpful.
Device = N95-8Gb, running v30 firmware.
My understanding is the same as yours. The products typically have a range of supported languages. SE used unicode for the language support.
I would hope this would be rectified in future symbian releases. The new symbian foundation has huge plans for making the OS more accessible and re-usable, and I am pretty sure this will be fixed. But sadly for your phone not too many options.
The second one is my HATE also. I give up and don't change the time-zone, I just change the time. Keeps the appointments in the right place. But a nightmare if you add appointments while traveling I will agree.
This does improve with newer products.
