Nokia Unveils New Mobile Email Service

ESPOO, Finland — Nokia continues its growth into the mobile and desktop computing worlds with a new email service designed for its personal virtual dashboard, Ovi.

Users can find more information on Nokia’s services at Ovi.com. Ovi's chief function is to connect desktop computing and mobile devices through an online dashboard that lets users communicate with friends and use several third-party services, such as a photo-sharing application powered by Flickr.

Nokia's new email application, called simply Mail, lets users sign up for a free email account on any mobile device powered by the company's Series 40 user-interface platform, which to date is still the most widely used in the world.

The new email service works on about 35 different phones and in more than a dozen languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Hindi, Bengali, Tagalog, Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia. It offers users all of the familiar bells and whistles common to online email services.

Tech writer Robin Wauters call the unveiling a "major announcement" that points toward a possible future where mobile devices, not computers, are the major form of digital communication.

"These so-called ‘emerging markets’ represent a big growth opportunity for mobile device manufacturers and service providers, so it’s no wonder Nokia is so focused on creating new services to go with lowered-price devices," she wrote for TechCrunch.com.

Users with a Series 40 Nokia device can visit Ovi.mobi/mobile/ovi/welcome for more information on this new service.
