Stepwise approach to increasing Ovi functionality aimed at ensuring a
smooth and intuitive user experience
Espoo, Finland - In an online event later today Nokia will
demonstrate the new personal information management (PIM) sync
functionality of Ovi.com, as well as the recently launched Nokia Ovi
Suite for PC and the Files on Ovi remote-access service. These
different elements of Ovi help you manage your personal information
and media in various ways through a simple and unified interface.
"Today we are showing people how you can easily backup, sync and
share your content using Ovi services on your PC, the web and your
mobile device", said Jussi Nevanlinna, Vice President of Product and
Portfolio Management in Nokia's Services & Software business. "Our
stepwise approach to rolling out and integrating these and other
elements of Ovi lets us learn and adjust according to the feedback we
receive from people, so that we can constantly improve the user's
experience of our services. We recognize that in the services
business bringing something new to market is not the end of its
development - it's only the beginning."
The latest version of Ovi.com, which is now available as a public
beta, offers free functionality for syncing your calendar, contacts,
notes and tasks between a Nokia mobile device and www.ovi.com. With
this functionality Ovi.com users can now create an online backup of
their important information that they can access and edit anytime
when connected to the internet. Nokia believes this improves a
customer's mobile experience by safeguarding their personal
information in case their device is lost or stolen.
With the Nokia Ovi Suite for PC application you can easily copy files
and information from your Nokia mobile device to your computer; back
up the contents of your Nokia device; and drag-and-drop photos and
videos to Share on Ovi, the media sharing service Nokia launched
earlier this year.
Files on Ovi allows you to remotely access the files on your
internet-connected personal computers from any browser-enabled mobile
phone or computer. You can also store files online in your Anytime
Files personal storage area so that they are always accessible to
you. The service is based on the software and expertise Nokia
obtained through the acquisition of Avvenu in December 2007.

approximately 15:10 to 16:00. A similar question and answer session
will be held from 07:10 CET on Wednesday, September 10.
