Nokia and Yahoo – A great new partnership

With all Apple’s product like iPhone,Android mobiles available in market this new partnership sounds Amazing and they are here to attract customers with different new features.Nokia and Yahoo are going to have equal gains due to each other.Yahoo mail and Yahoo messenger will be pre-installed in Nokia mobiles and hence people are sure get attracted with this inbuilt feature.And with Yahoo its going to have power maps and navigation services from Nokia.Its something like both the organisations compliment each other in their features

Nokia is seeing some downfall in the recent days as it was not able to compete as good with its products with Apple’s iPhone and even with Droid Phones.But now it will be able to compete with its new features atleast in the American region

Again Yahoo can updates its email services with the navigation services as it also lags behind from Google in all these features.After a long time we could see some interesting things happening in both Nokia and Yahoo.
