At the launch of Nokia Lumia in Singapore on December 7, 2011 ago, I was talking with the Nokia and Microsoft on a smart phone debuts Windows Phone from Nokia.

Previously, the popularity of the Windows Mobile platform quite poor in Indonesia. Now although the name changed to Windows Phone, this assumption is still made an impression in the consumer smartphone. How Nokia and Microsoft to educate the market that have all been different?
Anthony Wilson: I recommend the consumer to try its own Nokia Lumia. If you ever use Windows Mobile based smartphone, it will definitely feel the difference is drastic. So go to a store that provides a demo unit to directly feel the sophistication of what is offered by Nokia Lumia platform based on Windows Phone.

If you have to mention one feature that will be preferred by consumers in Indonesia, the feature is it?
Andrej Sonkin: Social network. Windows Phone is built with the advanced relations between individuals. So instead of just putting a collection of icons lined up neatly, but we use the Live Tile in the main page. Boxes of tile (tile) can represent one person you specify. So once you open the contact details of his wife or friends, for example, then all the updates on various social networks like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter, plus SMS, email, and details of conversations, will be instantly displayed. So you do not need to open multiple applications to monitor communication with someone.

Is the application for Windows Phone is also available at Nokia Store?
Sirpa Ikola: None. For Nokia Lumia, which is a series of Nokia smartphones based on Windows Phone, users can download the application in the Marketplace. Nokia Store is limited to mobile phones based on Symbian and S40.

How many applications available on the Marketplace?
Mauro Montanaro: The number of applications available on Windows Phone Marketplace has already reached more than 40 thousand. Despite the relatively small number compared to other applications such as store AppStore and Android Market, about 90% of the most popular applications in two stores such applications can also be found in the Marketplace. So users can still use favorite applications on the Nokia Lumia.

Approximately how many products will be Windows-based Nokia Phone in 2012?
Andrej Sonkin: While we cannot comment on it. In essence, Nokia has always tried to meet the needs of various user segments. So eventually the consumer will see a variety of devices based on Windows Phone in a variety of price levels with several design options, so looking forward to it.
