Nokia’s long awaited application store has finally turned the closed sign to open and unlocked the front door – but will the tills be ringing like it’s Christmas?

First, some facts and figures. Nokia claim an estimated 50 million customers out there with compatible Nokia phones (over 50 of those, in fact) can access the store. It can speak to you in English, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish and supports operator billing in Australia, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Russia, Singapore, Spain and the UK – plus credit card worldwide.

“Ovi Store is open for business and we’ve stocked the shelves with both local and global content for a broad range of Nokia devices,” said Tero Ojanperä, Executive Vice President, Nokia Services. “Ovi Store makes shopping for content and applications easy and fun for feature phone and smartphone owners alike.”

If you’ve got the right device in the right country, you can get the Ovi Store mobile application by selecting the Ovi Store icon in the Download! folder on their device. US customers needn’t feel too left out as AT&T are launching the Ovi store later in the year. “AT&T looks forward to introducing Ovi Store for our customers later this year,” said David Christopher, chief marketing officer, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. “AT&T has a reputation for providing the most customer choice of content and applications and offering Ovi Store is in line with that strategy.”
