@ 09:14 - Wednesday 29th April

@ 09:11 - Wednesday 29th April
Mobile markets is worth a couple of bn this year. 7.5 bn in 2012. Made up of many components. In app is a small part but increasing #nds09
@ 09:08 - Wednesday 29th April
Numbers show importance. 4 bn phone, 1.5 bn TVs. 1.1 bn PCs. But fragmented and confusion. Market not harnessed yet. #nds09
@ 09:05 - Wednesday 29th April
Example - applications. Gillette sponsored cricket game which was pre-installed in 200,000 devices. Engage with consumers. #nds09
@ 09:03 - Wednesday 29th April

Ovi Mail has had 250 million sign ups, 70% from mobile device. No marketing, just putting it in the market. 7 of top 10 are emerging #nds09
@ 08:36 - Wednesday 29th April
In emerging markets Nokia can be both identity and pipe. Because Ovi Mail is for 75% who do not have email. #nds09
@ 08:34 - Wednesday 29th April
So remove barriers to adoption - provide reach (sign up local ISPs) and address emerging markets (Mail on Ovi). #nds09
@ 08:33 - Wednesday 29th April

@ 15:09 - Tuesday 28th April

@ 14:46 - Tuesday 28th April
Flash Lite 3.1 S60 and WM. Enables dev of stand alone apps that can be directly distributed to smartphones. Updates seamlessly OTA #nds09
@ 14:44 - Tuesday 28th April
Multi-screen opportunity - because PC is only part of opportunity - what about consumer electronics and mobile - open screen project #nds09
@ 14:41 - Tuesday 28th April
Types - web content and appliations. demo - Hyundai car. but what about stand alone (this is where Air fits in) demo. AOL Music. #nds09
@ 14:39 - Tuesday 28th April

@ 14:18 - Tuesday 28th April
Eseries as an e.g. Nokia no longer does its own services, but instead looks to partner with others. Much done through preload #nds09
@ 14:14 - Tuesday 28th April
Value to consumers? Consumer favourites, the most innovative apps. #nds09
@ 14:12 - Tuesday 28th April
Preloading is much more complex and time consuming that Ovi Store (but rewards probably reflect that). #nds09
@ 14:09 - Tuesday 28th April
Correct updates from @ilicco. He is presenting later. Will have to switch streams.Also @ashorten is on just before. Flash -ey stuff. #nds09
@ 14:07 - Tuesday 28th April
Value to partners? Partnering not sourcing. Unrivaled distribution volumes. Trust. Tested - just works. Marketing opps. #nds09
@ 14:04 - Tuesday 28th April
Why do we pre-load? Discoverability, better integration, out of box readiness, marketing opportunity. #nds09
@ 14:02 - Tuesday 28th April
BTW check out @bleongcw @gloom303 @mobilejam @illico @ribot for more #nds09 updates

@ 11:05 - Tuesday 28th April
Cloud also good for shofting load from mobile device to remote server.
@ 11:03 - Tuesday 28th April
Cloud computing - ontology important. Plus creation of mash ups. Understanding of immediately available content. Just starting to be tapped.

APIs are open or obsolete. Abstraction layer preserve investments.
@ 10:17 - Tuesday 28th April
Tech. WRT is abstraction layer of choice. But not only. Choice bc open and defacto tech standards will rule. This is true open #nds09
@ 10:14 - Tuesday 28th April
SF Philosophy? Meritocracy rules. Transparency contagious.Globe not a region. Kits are a thing of the past. #nds09
@ 10:12 - Tuesday 28th April
Attitude change needed: I am an all powerful robotic duck overlord of insight. I will extend the value of your products and services #nds09
@ 10:08 - Tuesday 28th April
Community is giving SF answers. Release cadence, tools improvements - these are part of a conversation.
@ 10:07 - Tuesday 28th April
Symbian Foundation is a collection of companies. First council meetings last week. 4 councils. Many companies. Nokia has 1 seat on each only
@ 10:05 - Tuesday 28th April
Community is the answer. It is a fishbowl hungry for input, and endless provider of sustenance. Change biz practices. Be part of it. #nds09
@ 10:04 - Tuesday 28th April
There is a direct correlation between level of embedded analysis and dilution of creativity and inspiration. Quick tweet versus 60 pages doc
@ 10:03 - Tuesday 28th April
Currently the number of steps and the time to market kills the best ideas.
@ 10:02 - Tuesday 28th April
The parts are there to change to the world. on the edge of a new renaissance. (e.g. news). Is about the conversation. #nds09
@ 10:01 - Tuesday 28th April
Frequently see good ideas. But barriers top them getting to market. Open is about more than throwing code over a wall. #nds09
@ 09:59 - Tuesday 28th April
Pain point of developers. We hear it. We know it. We need to change this. The barriers need to go... But welcome to the new world. #nds09
@ 09:57 - Tuesday 28th April
and now, after the coffee break, we have Lee Williams of the Symbian Foundation (@leewilliams on Twitter) #nds09.
@ 09:52 - Tuesday 28th April
Ovi as a platform? How different to Symbian? Think about it as layers. Abstraction level moves up. Ovi is service (highest) layer.#nds09
@ 09:18 - Tuesday 28th April
Q and A. No Pc Suite 4 Mac, PC Suite terrible. How sync to Ovi? Tero - everyone has differen perspective - will continue to evolve solutions
@ 09:15 - Tuesday 28th April
Ovi Store is important because it is a consistent (and better) approach from Nokia. See it as good for long tail for operators. #nds09
@ 09:12 - Tuesday 28th April
Q and A. Ovi Store and operators? Collab with T-Mobile, more to come. But there will be other app stores. Good for platform. #nds09
@ 09:11 - Tuesday 28th April
Q and A. Porting from iPhone? CaI has web component - ideal for ported web apps. Technical and biz dev support available. #nds09
@ 09:09 - Tuesday 28th April
A flash update. 300 million Flash enabled Nokia devices in the market. Open screen project first 5 fundings are announced. #nds09
@ 09:02 - Tuesday 28th April
Ovi Store being talked about. Language support expand. Global system. Distribution system on every phone. Coming soon. #nds09
@ 08:58 - Tuesday 28th April
Demo eyeSight. Touch free interface. Gestures (wave at camera). First app in Ovi Store. eyeCall - manage incoming calls.
@ 08:54 - Tuesday 28th April
Also allows access to phone functions through platform service (e.g. javascript api to get to gps). App uses test image content. Sharing.
@ 08:48 - Tuesday 28th April
Demo: associated press N97 widget (as seen at CTIA). 5 weeks from concept to finish. Uses WRT. Leverage existing mobile web experience.
@ 08:47 - Tuesday 28th April
Nokia N97 Beta SDK is announced and available today. Includes support for N97 widgets. Show info without open app. See AAS home page. #nds09
@ 08:44 - Tuesday 28th April
Maps on Ovi as a platform. Apps on Maps with SDK. Will be part of next Calling all Innovators. More details at Web 2.0 conf in June. #nds09
@ 08:42 - Tuesday 28th April
Messaging as platform also gets a mention (Nokia messaging effectively). Aims to comprehensively aggregate messaging services together.
@ 08:39 - Tuesday 28th April
and we'll hear more later this year about how this will evolve. BTW 500 million camera devices delivered by Nokia to date. #nds09
@ 08:35 - Tuesday 28th April
Share - Feeds and REST based API. API have enabled Qik, Flixwagon, Flickr to integrate. New - more comprehensive API coming. #nds09
@ 08:34 - Tuesday 28th April
5 Ovi service. Expose these services through API. Not just Nokia service brand. Platform for development. #nds09
@ 08:31 - Tuesday 28th April
Tero: If we rely only on ourselves (Nokia) we will fail. We need you. Your apps can enhance the value of our services. #nds09
@ 08:29 - Tuesday 28th April
Developers do matter, we believe in open platforms and have always supported them. We can do better and these two days are about dialog.
@ 08:27 - Tuesday 28th April
Tero Ojanpera, EVP Nokia Services on stage to give the keynote - developing for the era of Social Location. #nds09
@ 08:26 - Tuesday 28th April
Some suitably inspirational video rolls. There is a place... it's here. Our photos, our maps, our calendars, our share etc. Ovi.
@ 08:25 - Tuesday 28th April
What about money? Ovi Store and operator portals, preloading (100 on regional variants of N97), service partnerships #nds09
@ 08:21 - Tuesday 28th April
Emphasis on cross platform. Qt is the future for us. Also WRT is important - reduce costs by 75 per cent according to FN partners.
@ 08:16 - Tuesday 28th April
Rob Taylor, Head of FN gets things underway. This event is about how you can make money. Lots of people here - around 550 we hear.
@ 08:15 - Tuesday 28th April
We're expecting the main themes to be openess, Ovi Store (Publish on Ovi), WRT, QT and some Flash Lite thrown in too.
