Answer 1

From the official website:

Symbian^3 (pronounced Symbian three) - or S^3 for short - is the latest and greatest version of the Symbian platform.

This pronounciation is consistent with Symbian^2 and Symbian^1.

In other contexts

Elsewhere, the character may be pronounced "caret". In C-inspired programming languages, it's usually defined as the exclusive-or (XOR) operator, usually pronounced "x-or". In logic, a similar symbol ∧ signifies logical conjunction (AND).

In some mathematical context, ^ is often used to denote exponentiation (e.g. 2^8 = 256 in Google Calculator). Some of the more mathematically oriented programming languages also use this notation for exponentiation (e.g. Matlab, Microsoft Excel, Haskell, etc).
