Symantec, makers of the popular Windows anti-virus software "Norton Anti-Virus" and myriad other security products, is bringing its skills to bear on Windows Mobile and Symbian. To wit: the new Mobile Security Suite 5 is expected to arrive this summer, about half a year or so after they released the previous version.
Symantec is apparently downplaying the event -- here are the relevant fearmongering quotes from Con Mallon, one of Symantec's regional marketing directors:
