Helsinki, Finland - Today, at its annual Capital Markets Day event,
Nokia set key targets and forecasts for the company and its industry
for 2010. Senior company executives outlined how Nokia's focus on
execution combined with its core competitive advantages, position the
company to achieve and sustain broad-based success in the mobile
devices market. At the event, Nokia also demonstrated significant
improvements to its forthcoming version of the Symbian user
interface.

Nokia CEO, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, highlighted Nokia's focus on user
experience, stating: "In 2010, we will drive user experience
improvements, and the progress we make will take the Symbian user
interface to a new level. As an operating system, Symbian has reach
and flexibility like no other platform, and we have measures in place
to push smartphones down to new price points globally, while growing
margins. I see great opportunity for Nokia to capture new growth in
our industry, by creating what we expect to be the world's biggest
platform for services on the mobile."

Nokia CFO, Timo Ihamuotila, described Nokia's view of the industry
and competitive environment: "Going into 2010, the overall mobile
devices market is stabilizing and it is growing more in the areas
where Nokia has competitive advantages. We believe that by executing
on the operational priorities we have set, Nokia will be competitive
in both mobile phones and smartphones and will improve its value
share."
