Nokia delivers breakthrough email and enterprise connectivity solution for small screen devices


Mountain View, California - Nokia (NYSE:NOK) today announced a unique enterprise mobility offering that provides mobile workers using browser-enabled devices a desktop-like experience when accessing corporate email, calendar, contacts, and tasks, including the ability to access attachments from an email and embedded live links to intranet or Internet sites.
 
Nokia Access Mobilizer works on any browser-enabled device, but is especially well-suited for business phones such as the Nokia 6800 messaging phone, Nokia 6600 imaging phone, and the Nokia 9200 Communicator series. Since Nokia Access Mobilizer senses the display requirements of the mobile device it is able to deliver relevant content, including Microsoft Officeâ documents and Adobeä PDF documents in a format optimized for that terminal, regardless of its wireless digital standard.
 
Nokia Access Mobilizer leverages the existing corporate security infrastructure as an appliance-based offering installed behind the corporate firewall that, similar to a web server, is installed quickly. Because there is no alteration or modification of source content required, and no additional client software to deploy on devices accessing the system, employees can use their existing phones and PDAs to quickly access legacy and new content. Users simply open the browser on their device and specify the secure URL unique to their company. Once logged in with an ID and password, users are fully functional and have the freedom to work on their own terms virtually regardless of time and place.
 
Unique to this solution is Nokia Access Mobilizer's ability to deliver content in a fast and efficient manner, regardless of the device or network. Nokia Access Mobilizer operates on essentially any public or private wireless network, delivering true mobile access. All transferred data is retained on the original server, not the mobile device, drastically reducing the risk of exposing proprietary information on misplaced devices.
 
"In today's global business environment, enterprises are at an advantage with a workforce that uses Nokia Access Mobilizer because of its efficiency, security and flexibility," said Sam Leinhardt, vice president and general manager, Nokia Access Mobilizer Business Unit. "Employees are able to read and reply to emails, view presentations and access content on the Web or company intranet, in real-time from any browser-enabled device, without having to do anything special such as synchronize their device when they are back in the office." 
 
Nokia Access Mobilizer is a core component of the Nokia strategy for enhancing business connectivity by mobilizing enterprises. It is ideal for mid to large size IT departments that want to deploy and control their own appliance-based solution for providing secure mobile connectivity to critical corporate data by employees who are mobile both in the office and across the globe.
 
Consistent with the entire Nokia family of mobile connectivity offerings, Nokia Access Mobilizer is backed by global Nokia First Call-Final Resolution support network, allowing customers to have a single point of contact for all support needs.
 
Nokia Access Mobilizer is currently orderable in the Americas and Europe, with expected global availability in the first half of 2004.
