Concerning closing apps. You can either press the X in certain apps, the exit in others, the door icon in others, options, then exit in others or long press the menu to open the multitasking menue and click the X to close the app or long press and close all apps.

It is very inconsistent from app to app but you can close almost all apps from within the application. This has been one of my gripes for ages.

I have a Nokia N8, since Dec. 2010. I just installed the leaked Symbian Anna v22 build from July 5th on it today. It is a great improvement over Symbian^3 v 14.

I also still have my N900 and a G2 to make comparisions to as well. I agree with your points.
