Is it true that Sony Ericsson phones- W610, K790 etc don't allow Symbian...

...programs to be installed? My friends tell me that Nokia phones like N70, N72, N73 etc all feature a "true and complete" Symbian OS, which allows both native Symbian applications as well as Java applications to be installed (just like Windows OS on desktop PCs does). But my friends also tell me that even the high-end Sony Ericsson phones like K750, K550, W700, W810 etc DO NOT allow native Symbian programs to be installed- they only allow Java programs to be installed.How true is it?

Yes brother,most of the nokia phones are working on Symbian OS and sony phones are based on JAVA.if your phone is compatible to operate on Symbian OS then you can install JAVA applications too.but if you use a sony phone which is meant to operate on java then most of the symbian applications could not be installed here.My View- Symbian is better than java and there are too many softwares and more efficient softwares in symbian than java.
