Nokia presents new models. And the action flies

   Nokia today presents its new mobile phones in Singapore. And immediately the share, on the Helsinki Stock Exchange, marked an increase of up to 3%. The group's stock, in a difficult phase, has lost 46% since the beginning of the year.
   The models presented today by CEO Stephen Elop range from the cheaper ones designed for emerging markets to the N9 smartphone which, as reported by the Bloomberg agency, will be distributed during 2011. "The reality - said Elop - is that 90% of the world population does not have or cannot afford a smartphone and this gap creates an opportunity”'. Nokia's main strategy in the smartphone sector, continued Elop, remains that of Windows phones developed thanks to the agreement with Microsoft, which will be presented this year and whose "volume" distribution will start in 2012.
   ”Earlier this year – said Elop – we outlined a comprehensive strategy, based on innovation, aimed at changing the course of our company. Today we have taken important steps forward in establishing a new path of innovation: a new era is beginning for Nokia "
