Nokia WidSets Platform: Update Brings You New Options. Try it!

The company Nokia has announced that the Internet-service WidSets, launched into beta version in October 2006, has been re-launched on a new revolutionary platform.

The new service WidSets will offer the mobile users a wide widget-library and location-based orientation. Moreover, the new WidSets features a advertising business-model. The service is supported by almost all the phones with Java. According to Nokia, with the help of WidSets the users can gain access to online-content without an inbuilt browser. The new platform will also offer a new function of dynamic search and the developed tools for crating widgets.

Jarmo Jokinen, head of WidSets, Nokia Emerging Business Unit, stated:

“We are happy to have received the feedback by our users. During the period of beta-testing over 3 million users owning around 300 phone models registered on WidSets.”

Nokia plans to pre-install WidSets on all the mobile devices released during 2008. The service will be available in 5 languages. The first phone to feature WidSets will be Nokia 8800 Arte, the sales of which are to start at the end of the year.

What WidSets say about themselves:

“When we began we were a small group of Nokia people with a long history of Internet and mobile-related experience, and we´ve created all kinds of interesting products over the years (and to be honest a few less interesting ones too). We’d been using a range of social networking services for quite some time and wanted to make these services available via mobile phones, so we came up with an idea - and got the funding. Work started in 2005, and the rest is history :-)”
