Nokia Abandons Japanese Market

Posted by bewe 28 November 2008 2 comments

The Finnish Nokia, as you know by now, is the world leader in the production of mobile devices. But that does not mean that his "domain" is unchallenged in every country on the planet, anything: there were, in fact, where the Nokia brand is very weak and has to deal with a very difficult competition.


One of the most complicated for the North European group is without doubt Japan, dominated by Japanese brands of high quality. For some time the European company is trying to carve a significant sector in the Asian country. News of yesterday, however, is the abandonment of that strategy by the group: Nokia has decided to withdraw from Japan, thus ending the marketing of mobile phones.

According to reports by itself, will not be a complete abandonment of the market: the giant will remain present in the commercial Japanese, but only with high-end devices belonging to the note range Vertu. The decision comes after the disappointing results of recent months, not in line with the expectations of the company.


Looking back. Or rather, starting from fundamental. Blackberry is not a producer of mobile phones, but the line of smartphones designed for business users, conducted by the Canadian Research In Motion. What distinguishes the line of Blackberry devices is the management of e-mail, optimized and made compact for quick dispatch and receipt. This development over the years has allowed the producer to achieve that end have recently begun to dispose of other advanced technologies, dall'UMTS all'HSDPA, including the touchscreen system completely, with the imminent (in Italy) Storm of marketing. Behind the scocche of various Blackberry behind the display and keyboard, the 2.0 megapixel camera and trackball, however, a question remains: how the e-mail system? First, we must remember a primary concept.



There are two systems of thought from within the RIM Blackberry system for managing e-mail. The first is BIS, the Blackberry Internet Service, designed for home users, which allows recovery of e-mail at intervals of no more than twenty minutes, unless you have provided an account (for example), Yahoo (for which you have to send and receiving real-time). The second system is designed for businesses. This is the BES, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server.

A provision of businesses of every size, with the aim of maintaining connected the various employees, managers, who have the ability to exchange e-mail as a safe and rapid recovery of communications. Precisely this system we have been told in detail by David Heit, the head of the Software Product Management of RIM. What has particularly wanted to focus on the range of possibilities available to the company itself, testing and integration of this system with other work tools. To turn the attention of those present at yesterday organized in London, was mainly the ease of managing the system by the administrator, who has the power to create working groups, but primarily to enable and disable functions directly on terminals connected to the network.

This is a simple, that takes place in remote, as well as all other inputs coming from. This, as you might think, under the prince can reduce costs, rather than distribute phones with sim normal business without direct control. Naturally, however, the potential of the BES pass from a reprimand to the employee, but rather the possibility of staying in touch with solutions already available and others that will be integrated with the marketing platform 4.1.6. The implied promise is to provide businesses a particularly safe, pointing out that this is not a replacement for PC or laptop (a "laptop replacement", as said by the same Heit), but more of an integration with other canonical work.

Canons and well established, if not obsolete. While RIM will begin to concentrate about private, with the market introduction of models increasingly capable of wringing the eye to the consumer, continues to pace the commitment in business. In which the producer, at least when it comes to managing e-mail, has yet to find an opponent with which to fight for the leadership.

If there is a shortage on the iPhone, it is on MMS, an inexplicably absent from the very beginning of Apple's smartphone.


That might change with the operator TeliaSonera, the distributor of the iPhone in Sweden and Finland, who would prepare an application to-finally - to receive and perhaps to send multimedia text messages.



This application could be available within two months on the AppStore, and perhaps she will be for the whole world, unless Apple is vetoed ...
