Nokia (http://www.nokia.com/) has set out its objective to be the service of choice for consumers looking to organise and access social networks and content from mobile devices and PCs.
Announcements at Nokia World 2007 (http://www.nokia.com/A4423681) have clearly laid down the gauntlet to other players in the content and access arena, and Apple (http://www.apple.com/) in particular.
Mike Grant, head of broadband and media at Analysys (http://www.analysys.com/), said that Nokia is accelerating its shift from device manufacturer to integrated end-to-end consumer service organisation.
The handset giant's 'Comes with Music' service, which offers 12 months' free access to the Nokia music catalogue, is a clear challenge to Apple's success in integrating music with mobile communications.
