Microsoft a Nokia - tandem pri mobiloch

Nokia potrebuje zastaviť pád predaja jeho smartphonov. Uzavrela strategické partnerstvo s Microsoftom. Ide o tretiu dvojicu na poli mobilov, spolu s Google a Androidom či Apple a jeho iPhone..

Podľa tlačovej správy, vydanej na stránkach Nokie

Nová stratégia umožní väčšiu pružnosť firmy a reakcie na trendy v mobilnej komunikácií.

Nokia už pár rokov upadá so svojimi telefónmi.
Zatiaľ čo Nokia od Microsoftu získa Windows Phone 7 a integruje do telefónov Bing a Microsoft adCenter, Microsoft naopak integruje Nokia Maps do Bingu či integruje OVI portál na svojom marketplace portáli.

"Today, developers, operators and consumers want compelling mobile products, which include not only the device, but the software, services, applications and customer support that make a great experience," Stephen Elop, Nokia President and CEO, said at a joint news conference in London. "Nokia and Microsoft will combine our strengths to deliver an ecosystem with unrivalled global reach and scale. It's now a three-horse race."

"I am excited about this partnership with Nokia," said Steven A. Ballmer, Microsoft CEO. "Ecosystems thrive when fueled by speed, innovation and scale. The partnership announced today provides incredible scale, vast expertise in hardware and software innovation and a proven ability to execute.

Spojenie Microsoftu a Nokie však neznamená koniec Symbianu, ten je len presunutý z divízie telefónov do divízie Smart Devices.
