What does S60 and S40 mean?
The S stands for Symbian which is the operating system used in the nokia mobile handsets. Just like windows in our computers. If your phone has a 'menu' button and a pencil symbol and a button on which 'C' is written then your mobile is Running on Symbian 60.This OS supports multitasking and is capable of running 'sis' files as well as java applications (jar files).
The nokia N series runs S60 version 3 and you can not use the applications written for S60 version 3 on normal S60 phones. However i am not sure whether it works the other way round.
If your phone does not have these buttons then your phone is running Symbian 40 operating system. S40 applications are java applications. You can run S40 applications and games on S60 but you can not run a S60 application on S40.
