Up next: Maps

Part two of our partnership with Yahoo! involves Nokia becoming the exclusive, global provider of Yahoo!’s maps and navigation services, integrating Nokia Maps across Yahoo properties. Teams are working hard to make this happen by next year, and we’ll have more information when it’s available. In the meantime, we look forward to your comments and feedback on the new Ovi Mail Powered by Yahoo! experience, and will continue to keep you informed on the mobile experiences coming from Nokia services.
