#ovi store

So Nokia also announced its upcoming Ovi Store, a centralized content marketplace that will provide applications, games, videos, tones, graphics and more to most Nokia phone owners. It's practically the same as the Android Marketplace, the Apple App Store and the BlackBerry Application Storefront. The biggest advantage Nokia has among all other app stores is that it has th largest existing userbase of mobile phone users worldwide which means it potentially has a much bigger market than the iPhone and Blackberry combined. Allow anyone to publish content on the Ovi Store and distribute it for free. Provide multiple payment options or at least support Paypal payments on top of credit cards. Nokia is already making the right step by providing a centralized repository for all mobile content. Globe hosted a lunch for the media this afternoon to introduce their very first Flagship Store in the country which is located at the Greenbelt 4. Globe's concept of their Flagship Store was inspired from various telco stores around the world (yeah, they sent a team to check out the Apple Store in New York, AT&T, Orange and Vodafone in Europe and Singtel in Singapore).
