Nokia Ovi, Now With Mail
Nokia have just opened up the beta of their Mail on Ovi service to everyone. Previously only available on Nokia mobile devices, this now adds a full web interface.
Mail is the latest service to be offered by Nokia’s Ovi suite of online and mobile applications, all of which work seamlessly between Nokia high-end devices and Ovi on the web.
I use all of the services almost constantly and, if you can ignore the odd beta glitch at this stage, they range from being extremely useful (‘Contacts’, ‘Sync’ and ‘Calender’), to incredibly flexible (‘Share’ – unlimited media storage with highly effective, finely grained sharing options), to being so well done that it is downright spooky (the ‘Maps’ cellphone application if you add the – not free – ‘Drive and Walk’ voice-guided satnav. You have to use it to believe it as it’s mostly so accurate that it is genuinely eerie).
Generally I am not a fan of handing out free publicity to big companies on this blog, or any other blog, but I am quite happy to publicise Ovi.
Great services, and they only just got started.
The Ovi service faqs are here and they are worth looking at.
All Ovi services, by the way, other than ‘Files’ on the web and the ‘Drive and Walk’ add-ons for ‘Maps’ on mobile devices, are free.
I just hope that they do not go on to somehow screw all of this goodness up.
