March 2003 - Nokia unveiled three new terminals, three
enhancement products for mobile devices, and several
connectivity solutions for business and home environments
at the CeBIT2003 trade show. Nokia also published co-operation
announcements with T-Mobile and KPN Mobile.
In
addition to Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) capability,
Java (TM) support and Bluetooth, Nokia's introductions
include a broad selection of features such as EDGE connectivity,
presence, integrated camera, enhanced user interfaces,
music services and more.
At
the Nokia press conference at CeBIT, Anssi Vanjoki,
Executive Vice President, Nokia Mobile Phones, emphasized
the company's leading role in designing state-of-the-art
offerings for specific customer categories:
"Mobile
phones are not purchased just for their voice functionality
any more. Messaging, business applications, entertainment
and other value-added features, infused with a strong
brand experience, are the most compelling attractions.
Standardized open technologies create an essential platform
for the industry and for Nokia to fully leverage the
market potential of mobility," Mr. Vanjoki said. "This
is concretely illustrated for example in KPN's decision
to make i-mode content available on open standards starting
with the Nokia 3650 imaging phone."

Nokia 6220, an EDGE-enabled mobile phone, is designed
to become a core part of the mobile office. Business
professionals will experience enriched messaging
with an integrated camera, high-quality colour display,
multimedia messaging capability and a mobile email
client. With EDGE, downloads on the Nokia 6220 are
more than twice as fast as with GPRS. The presence-enhanced
contacts of the Nokia 6220 let users conveniently
publish their availability, intentions and whereabouts
to colleagues, family and friends. The tri-band
(GSM/EDGE 900/1800/1900) Nokia 6220 is expected
to start shipping in Europe, Africa and Asia Pacific
regions in the third quarter of 2003. |

The
Nokia 810 (GSM900/1800) car phone allows comfortable
voice and data communications in vehicles such as
company cars, vans and trucks. The new Navi(TM)
wheel, a separate display, voice dialing and voice
command capabilities, together with support for
Bluetooth technology, enable easy use of the Nokia
810. Two people can use the memory resources of
the device separately with a single SIM card, which
is convenient for those who share the use of a company
vehicle. The Nokia 810, which supports both High
Speed Data as well as GPRS, is scheduled to arrive
in the third quarter of 2003, in Europe, Africa,
and select markets in Asia-Pacific. |
The
new capabilities of the Nokia One Mobile Connectivity
Service easily extend corporate applications to employees
in the field. The service allows interaction, responses
and alerts on mobile devices, eliminating delays in
mission-critical production and business processes.
The Nokia One Mobile Connectivity Service efficiently
connects corporations and their mobile employees using
mobile phones, smart phones, PDAs, or a landline, over
multiple access methods including voice, SMS, web and
WAP.
Furthermore,
Nokia and T-Mobile have today announced co-operation
in order to provide corporate customers with solutions
that combine Nokia's leading range of business terminals
and T-Mobile's mobile data services. The co-operation
will start by bundling the Nokia D211 multimode radio
card with T-Mobile's "Communication Centre", allowing
business professionals on the move to connect easily
and securely via W-LAN or GPRS to their corporate information
resources. With initial deployment in Germany, the collaboration
will expand to include all of T-Mobile's European subsidiaries.

Nokia 3300 music phone is aimed at people who like
to enjoy digital entertainment when they want. The
ultimate music experience is provided through an
integrated music player (MP3/AAC), an FM stereo
radio and a digital recorder. The music key on the
device allows one-click access to music services,
while a USB connection enables the fast transfer
of music files from the PC to the device. Additionally,
the Nokia 3300 lets consumers play games, send multimedia
messages to compatible terminals and connect to
mobile services, all from the same device. The Nokia
3300 music phone working on GSM 900/1800 frequency
bands, is scheduled for shipments during 2nd quarter
2003 in Europe, Africa and Asia Pacific. |

Nokia's
collection of new enhancements takes advantage of key
technologies such as Bluetooth, MMS and imaging, thus
enriching consumers' multimedia messaging experience.
With the Nokia Digital Pen, users can write notes, draw
diagrams or colorful pictures. These can be transferred
via Bluetooth technology to a compatible phone, and
then forwarded as an MMS or e-mail. The Nokia Image
Viewer, connected to a compatible TV or video projector,
allows people to send images wirelessly from a compatible
phone and view and share them on a large screen at work
and home. The Nokia Add-on Lens can be attached to a
Nokia 3650 phone camera, enabling sharp pictures at
a very close range.
