Nokia at Mobile World Congress – Wrap Up

[MWC 2010] Nokia has just finished their press conference at Mobile World Congress 2010 and a lot was said, but little was substantial and up to the audience’s expectations (whether fair or not). First, no new device was announced, which is kind of weird, but I guess that Nokia World is now the new place for that type of launches, and it is somewhat understandable.
