You don't HAVE TO have your application SymbianSigned. It's recommended, though, but not mandatory.

No it's not required, at least, not for now.  Rumor is that v9.0 things could change.

And for good support on the web for developing applications...well, you are looking at it Wink

May also suggest the Nokia Forums as well.

Yes, it will change for sure. You will be much more encouraged to have your app signed than before, otherwise couple of feature of your program won't work nicely or at all.

No, even for Symbian OS 9 it is not required for basic capabilities (in other words, unsigned apps will by default work on Symbian OS 9, but they won't be able to do everything they can do today).

By signing apps, the app will gain additional capabilities (privileges/rights to call certain APIs) on Symbian OS 9 (also, Symbian OS 9 will not allow signed apps that have been tampered with to execute, and signed apps can also be traced back to the original developer).
