Nokia lumia 710 vew and news

Nokia and T-Mobile deliver
a leading entry-level
Windows Phone experience
to the nearly 150 million
Americans still to make the
transition to smartphones. Bellevue, WA and Sunnyvale, CA
USA - T-Mobile USA, Inc. and
Nokia today announced the
upcoming availability of the Nokia Lumia 710, the first Windows Phone from Nokia in the United States. Targeted at the nearly
150 million Americans who
haven't purchased their first
smartphones, the Nokia Lumia
710, capable of running on T-
Mobile's 4G network, delivers high-performance hardware,
Nokia's best social and Internet
experience, and access to
popular smartphone applications
and services from Windows
Phone Marketplace. Running on America's Largest 4G
Network(TM), the Nokia Lumia 710 benefits from the unique people-first approach of Windows
Phone, bringing together all
interactions with family and
friends in People Hub. The Nokia
Lumia 710 also provides one-click
access to popular services, such as Netflix, T-Mobile TV with
mobile HD* and a leading mobile
Web experience with Internet
Explorer® Mobile, Bing(TM)
Search with voice activation and
Local Scout for locally relevant search results. The smartphone
also brings access to signature
Nokia experiences, such as Nokia
Drive for voice-guided, turn-by-
turn navigation and ESPN for
exclusive sports content. "We're excited to team with
Nokia in bringing its first Windows
Phone to the U.S. with the
elegantly designed Nokia Lumia
710," said Cole Brodman, chief
marketing officer, T-Mobile USA. "Windows Phone offers a
compelling mobile OS choice for
people who want a smartphone
built around them, their family
and friends. We expect it to
play a more prominent role in our lineup and marketing efforts
in 2012." Today, people are increasingly
upgrading to smartphones, and many are doing so for the first
time. According to the NPD
Group, U.S. smartphone sales
reached 59 percent in the third
quarter 2011, an increase of 13
percent since third quarter 2010. With an increasing demand
for smartphones, the Nokia
Lumia 710 offers a compelling
experience aimed at addressing
the needs of the nearly 150
million people in the U.S. who have yet to upgrade to their
first smartphones. "Our research shows nearly
everybody in the U.S. wants a
smartphone, but many believe
they can't afford it," Brodman
said. "That's where T-Mobile
shines. Our Unlimited Value and Monthly4G plans make it more
affordable than ever to step up
to mobile data on our 4G
network." "The Nokia Lumia 710 is the
perfect first-time smartphone: a
well-designed product that
delivers the most compelling
Windows Phone experience in its
price range and with access to great content and thousands of
applications," said Chris Weber,
president, Nokia Americas. "This is
the perfect first Nokia Lumia
experience and the start of our
re-entry into the U.S. smartphone market." Available in a black or white
finish, the Nokia Lumia 710
features a 3.7-inch ClearBlack WVGA scratch-resistant display
for outstanding outdoor viewing
and a Qualcomm 1.4 GHz
Snapdragon(TM) processor
providing speedy access to
entertainment and information on-the-go. It also features a 5- megapixel camera with Nokia's leading camera technology,
enabling people to take pictures
in almost any light condition and
share on social networks in
seconds. With the most
integrated work-life solution of any mobile platform via the
Windows Phone Office Hub and an
interactive mobile gaming
experience via Xbox LIVE®, the
Nokia Lumia 710 is the complete
all-round first-time smartphone experience. Availability The Nokia Lumia 710 is expected
to be available at T-Mobile retail
stores, select dealers and
retailers nationwide, and online
at http://www.t-mobile.com starting Jan. 11. The Nokia Lumia
710 is expected to cost USD

Statements This press release contains
forward-looking statements that
reflect certain current views of
Deutsche Telekom management

forward-looking statements may
include statements with regard
to the expected development of
revenue, earnings, profits from

consider them with caution. Such
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, most of which
are difficult to predict and are
generally beyond Deutsche
Telekom's or Nokia's control.
Among the factors that might
influence our ability to achieve our objectives are the progress
of our workforce reduction
initiative and other cost-saving
measures, and the impact of
other significant strategic,
labour or business initiatives, including acquisitions, dispositions
and business combinations,
natural events, and network
upgrade and expansion
initiatives. In addition, stronger
than expected competition, technological change, legal
proceedings and regulatory
developments, among other
factors, may have a material
adverse effect on costs and
revenue development. Further, the economic downturn in
markets, and changes in interest
and currency exchange rates,
may also have an impact on our
business development and the
availability of financing on favourable conditions. Changes
to our expectations concerning
future cash flows may lead to
impairment write downs of
assets carried at historical cost,
which may materially affect results at the group and
operating segment levels. If
these or other risks and
uncertainties materialize, or if
the assumptions underlying any
of these statements prove incorrect, actual performance
may materially differ from the
performance expressed or
implied by forward-looking
statements. Deutsche Telekom
and Nokia offer no assurance that any estimates or
expectations will be achieved.
And, without prejudice to
existing obligations under capital
market law, we do not assume
any obligation to update forward-looking statements to
take new information or future
events into account or
otherwise. In addition to figures prepared in
accordance with IFRS, Deutsche
Telekom also presents non-GAAP
financial performance measures,
including, among others, EBITDA,
EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted
EBIT, adjusted net income, free

debt. These non-GAAP measures
should be considered in addition
to, but not as a substitute for, the information prepared in
accordance with IFRS. Non-GAAP
financial performance measures
are not subject to IFRS or any
other generally accepted
accounting principles. Other companies may define these
terms in different ways. FORWARD-LOOKING
