Last week, handset major, Nokia unveiled its own mobile television channel in an attempt to showcase its latest multimedia device and persuade users to finally embrace watching programmes on the move.
The Finnish handset manufacturer, which supplies four out of every 10 phones sold, has created a series of 96-second programmes.
Six new programmes – on motoring, fashion, gadgets, comedy, culture and homes – will launch on October 1 and are designed to show off the multimedia capabilities of Nokia’s new N96 handset.
Last week, Nokia announced a tie-up with the BBC that would allow N96 users to access its popular iPlayer 7-day catchup service. Previously, Apple’s iPhone was the only mobile compatible with iPlayer.
