Is it possible to program in c++ for cell phones such as games, or applications if it is are there any tutorials about it.

You can use C++ on cell phones that support the BREW platform.

And also Symbian. I'm no sure where you are located but I get the impression that Brew is more popular in America and Symbian in Europe and Australia, and I'm not sure about other regions sorry...

In America you want to use BREW, however this only applies to Verizon phones. Other then that Java2 ME is what you need for other wireless carriers. Keep in mind that the compiler for BREW is a bit pricy (you can test the application Windows though), whereas Java's compiler is free.

you can also use visual embedded c++ 4.0 which is found here

then you can get the pocket pc SDK which allows for production of c++ code in pocket pc, and cell phones and smartphones.

i second evc4.0, if you're familiar with good old visual c++ 6, itll be real easy to get a hang of.
