Via the agreement, T-Mobile and Nokia say they will be able to offer their European customers faster and easier access to all of T-Mobile's web'n'walk Internet services as well as all to Nokia's Ovi Internet services on a wide range of Nokia devices. The companies also say they will partner to further enhance T-Mobile's community-oriented MyFaves service, launched in October 2007 in Europe.
Widget cooperation is also said to be another focus area for the companies, where T-Mobile's web'n'walk offering will provide an 'even richer user experience'. T-Mobile's web'n'walk offers customers access to their most preferred Internet and messaging services.
For T-Mobile customers, Nokia will customize its devices to provide a dedicated suite of T-Mobile services which will be seamlessly integrated to Nokia devices. Similarly, T-Mobile customers can access Nokia's Internet services, such as music, maps and games, through their Nokia device.
In March T-Mobile and Nokia announced the exclusive Nokia 6650 device for T-Mobile which will be available in July in Europe, and this collaboration is said to be the next step in intensifying the good partnership between the companies.
"We are pleased about developing our long-lasting and successful cooperation with Nokia, which underlines our position as an innovation leader," says Christopher Schläffer, Group Product & Innovation Officer at Deutsche Telekom. "High-performance devices and our broadband mobile phone network are ideally suited for granting easy access to our T-Mobile Services like MyFaves, web'n'walk or Nokia-complementary service offerings (e.g. Maps or Games), providing our customers with an even wider range of mobile communication, information and entertainment services."
"We are excited about further extending our good cooperation with T-Mobile by supporting them in their key propositions like My Faves and web'n'walk, and we see this as a perfect match with our Ovi services. Easy access to a wide variety of services will enhance the way people use their mobile devices and bring Web 2.0 experiences to life. We believe in providing consumers with choice regarding which Internet services they want to access from their mobile device," said Anssi Vanjoki, Executive Vice President, Markets, Nokia
