New surprise comes from Nokia; one can call it a good news story about Nokia services strategy. According to Reuters the Finnish handset giant now has 86 million users for its mobile internet services, beating its own set target of 80 million users. This is considered only a small silver lining to a bigger cloud as the company is said to count every customer who was used a service just once over the last six month as active user and as estimated Nokia got 1.1 billion Nokia users worldwide today so this is a far cry from the critical mass. One more thing is that the company had still not confirmed the information it self. As known well that Nokia has big ambitions for Ovi and rest of its internet services division and by 2011 it aim to have more then 300 million users and make an estimated $2.89 billion revenues. Also there been some rumors and suggestion from its executives that Nokia might sell of its handset division and focus on services entirely.
In December alone Nokia said that it was getting about one million download per day and was ready to relaunch its store but so far the numbers have not added up. Its well known N-Gage and photo sharing site have been shut up so that all the focus be given to Ovi.
