Mobile phones have evolved into a mature media platform capable of much more than just making calls or processing textual data. Nokia, as one of the largest mobile phone manufacturers, is empowering developers with APIs for the mobile platform.

Nokia is now the number one digital camera manufacturer in the world, due to massive success of camera phones. Fueled by the rollout of new mobile technologies such as 3G networks, smart phone adoption is over 50 million units sold, and mobile telephony is a 59 billion dollar industry.

Nokia is eager to empower the emerging developer ecosystem around 3G, VoIP and open source, to meet the demands of multimedia, enterprise and e-commerce markets. As subscriptions to mobile services continue to skyrocket, Raju examines where the mobile developer ecosystem is now, and what is in store for this exciting market.
