Mobile Devices
produces Nokia Eseries mobile devices specifically for business use that address
companies’ security, manageability, cost and easeofuse concerns. The Nokia Eseries portfolio
includes the Nokia E50, Nokia E51, Nokia E60, Nokia E61, Nokia E61i, Nokia E62, Nokia E65, Nokia E70,
and Nokia E90 Communicator, as well as the Nokia 9300 and Nokia 9500.
Nokia Eseries devices typically feature both cellular connectivity, such as GSM and 3G/WCDMA, and
noncellular connectivity, such as WLAN. They also support network connectivity, personal information
management, email and corporate telephony (PBX) system access, device management and security
solutions, as well as Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email and third party software such as BlackBerry
Connect, Mail for Exchange and Visto Mobile mail.
Mobility Solutions develops software solutions for mobile email, device management and other

range of device platforms, including Symbian, Palm, BREW and Windows Mobile, and is compatible
with a wide range of email servers and groupware applications, including Microsoft Exchange, IBM

Security and Mobile Connectivity offers a full range of security appliances and associated software and
peripheral offerings designed to help companies grant their employees access to corporate
information and establish secure remote connections between their corporate network, their offices

existing IT infrastructures.
Nokia’s security appliances run software from Checkpoint Corporation and SourceFire. Nokia and
Checkpoint have common distributors, integrators and Value Added Resellers, or VARs, that integrate
Nokia gateways with Checkpoint software for customers. We also provide enduser and reseller
support for these security products. In addition, we work with leading vendors like AlcatelLucent,
