Nokia has announced that more than 100,000,000 Series 60 mobile devices have been shipped worldwide by Series 60 licensees. That's a lot of devices.

"This announcement represents a significant landmark for S60. We believe it inspires further innovation on S60. The open platform gives mobile users more choice and provides a platform upon which new applications and services can be built", said Matti Vänskä, Vice President, Mobile software Sales and Marketing, Nokia.

Speaking at the event press conference, Matti Vänskä said: "We see three key trends affecting the requirements for software platforms. The mobile device is becoming the hub for personal experiences, whether focused on imaging, business, music, navigation or video. People are accessing Web 2.0 services and content with their mobile device. Thirdly, simplicity and intuitiveness of user experience are increasingly important."
