Hi,
If I want to buy a new cell phone. I will try to compare it properly.
Symbian:
Less virus attack and it can add a lot of softwares for free. You can easily find softwares online and download it. Symbian OS can be upgraded when there are new updates available.
Windows:
A lot of viruses problem. Getting free softwares for Windows OS cell phones are quite hard and you need to buy most of the softwares. I think that the Windows OS on cell phones can't be upgraded(I'm not too sure).
Symbian and Windows have their own pros and cons. I think that Symbian performance will be much faster then Windows as it requires less RAM. Windows OS will be slower. Windows OS is more user-friendly and easy to use. It is an great personal assistant. Windows OS is more powerful if compared to Symbian.
Overall, you need to try Windows OS and Symbian OS before you know which one suit you best. I think you should go to cell phones stores to try it and it will give you a better understanding for both of the OS.
Personally, I will go for Windows OS because it looks cool. 
Good luck.
Good luck.@Kunalpatel (84)

Thanks buddy for your opinion. You are right. What exactly i was thinking its same with you i do agree with you about the viruses and the software. I am most concentrating on the softwarers. Ya i know its easy to find any software for symbian. And ya i was thinking about HTC it has windows os and i am comparing with nokia n95 i dont know the prices but i am sure that n95 is more costly. Anyways thanks again.

i think windows mobile is pretty slow. symbian may not be stable but it depends on the applications you are installing. it just depends on what you are accustomed to.
