I’m not surprised that Apple’s iOS lost to Android in sales units (17.3M vs 60.5M units), but very interestingly, it also lost to Nokia’s Symbian OS (19.5M). This is for Q3 2011. Okay, I know many people were holding off their iPhone purchase in anticipation of the iPhone 4S release (or they thought, the iPhone 5). But still, it looks like Symbian isn’t sinking all that fast.

Olive Fried Rice
This is the Olive Fried Rice from the vegetarian stall at NUS Arts Canteen (“The Deck”). It’s quite delicious. They fry it on the spot when you order, so you get it hot. The beancurd skin at the side is an extra order.
