Nokia all set to overwhelm India with Ovi

Quotes

1. “ Ovi will open the door to Nokia's Internet services. We are looking at giving a unified user interface for mobile, PC and online media. India has close to 40 million Internet users and we are moving towards the 250-million mobile subscriber mark. With Ovi we will try and bring the power of Internet to the a greater scale. ”

2. “ Ovi means a lot of things packed into one. However, to start with in India, it would be music, games and navigation. We already have N-Gage, which is integrated as part of Ovi. We would be launching the gaming part in India in the next three months. Users can share games seamlessly with this. Music is another focus for us. Nokia Music store has more than two million songs on the web. With Ovi these can be accessed via PC or mobile. As far as navigation is concerned, we have Nokia Maps where we are covering close to 150 countries. Within India we have already covered eight cities so far and moving forward we would be adding more to this. ”

3. “ These are just some of the applications and capabilities that we would be launching in India initially, as the market accepts it and as we grow, we would be focusing a lot towards delivering solutions for our end consumers. ”

4. “ This is surely going to add value to a service provider. So we would be looking at partnering with all the service providers on this and move towards mutually beneficial partnerships in this direction. And it is an open-ended initiative so we are open to supporting even other handset brands with this. ”
