Las Vegas, NV, USA - At the 25th annual CTIA Wireless 2010 show in Las Vegas, Nokia is proud to celebrate a quarter-century of wireless industry advances, highlighting the latest in apps, content, devices, developers, and creative innovation - all of which influences the way you live with technology today.
At CTIA Nokia is demonstrating a wide array of solutions that help consumers connect to what matters most in their world. Making its first public debut is the Nokia 5230 Nuron, available tomorrow with T-Mobile, in addition to Ovi Maps and free navigation, and the innovative creations from the finalists of the "Push N900 Mod in the USA" -contest. Featuring the creators of some of the hottest apps and content available on Ovi Store, the Nokia booth also includes gems like OpenTable and Shazam - just some of the examples of the vibrant and open Nokia ecosystem.
"Twenty-five years ago the actual wireless industry was at its mere inception - at a time when Nokia marked innovation with a giant 'wireless' car phone, the Mobira Talkman. Today, 1.3 billion people around the world have phones - devices that have evolved into an extension of people's lives. It's no longer about the technology, it's about what it can do for you. We're excited to bring solutions to life for both for consumers and developers here at CTIA. This is indeed the year of apps, maps and more - and we're thrilled to be at the forefront," says Mark Louison, President, Nokia, Inc.

Mod about you
Bridging our commitment to innovation and consumer insights, Nokia is excited to announce the winning team of the PUSH N900 MOD IN THE USA competition at CTIA on March 24th. This will be the culmination of a global project to find the most unique concepts constructed using the Nokia N900, the most advanced mobile computer currently available. Come meet the brains behind the ideas and discover the clever inventions of the top three U.S. competition finalists, who will be at the Nokia Booth showcasing their N900 mod innovations first-hand.
The global PUSH N900 competition, held in October 2009, drew hundreds of entries and resulted in the construction of five widely varying mods. Finalists from both global and USA-focused competitions have come up with a wide range of concepts - from transforming the N900 into a spray-can that emits light graffiti to the brains of a robot, as well as other very, very creative ideas. The capability of a truly open device such as the Nokia N900 has been a great source for innovation and creativity.
