Nokia Messaging brings together consumer push e-mail and instant messaging for Nokia devices, allowing users to access an array of online mail and messaging services, such as Gmail, as well as those offered by ISPs. Part of the release is a new Web portal for Mail on Ovi, which lets PC users create and access Ovi e-mail accounts and other Ovi services with a single sign-on account.
Mail on Ovi also offers users Web access to e-mail and up to 1GB of storage space, and spam filters. The beta version of Mail on Ovi will be available this month, with a launch planned for February. The broader Nokia Messaging service will launch during the first quarter of 2009 overseas, for Nokia S60-based devices. A U.S. rollout date was not named. Support for IM and for Nokia Series 40 devices will arrive in the second half of 2009. The company says it plans to sign deals with mobile operators to set up Nokia Messaging as an operator-supported service, available as part of a subscriber's data plan.
