It seems that the iPhone-mania of those days is going to modify the strategies of other mobile phones companies. Nokia, for example, today announced that the touchscreen technology will be included on most of the upcoming phones, starting from the 5800 XpressMedia, but not only on high level devices.
Nokia Conversations reported today an interview with Anssi Vanjoki, Senior VP of Nokia Markets.
Anssi, talking of touchscreen technology, said that Nokia “will introduce products from the very low segment to the highest one featuring this type of functionality.”
Today touchscreens are not present on mid and low-end devices. They are featured on the most expensive mobile phones. But Nokia “always aim for a situation where (we) can cover all the segments with all the options”
Plus, Xatakamovil, is reporting a that Nokia could release the Nokia 5800 XpressMedia, the first Nokia with Touch UI, “before Christmas”
Good news, good news.
