Nokia and T-Com, a division of Deutsche Telekom (NYSE: DT) Group, are testing Internet Protocol (IP) convergence solutions on the Nokia N80 and Nokia E60 devices. New service will be called T-One and will offer customers a simple and convenient way to access both fixed line and mobile data services on the aforementioned Nokia (NYSE: NOK) devices.
Using the WLAN enabled Nokia N80 and Nokia E60 devices, customers will be able to use the same data and voice services from home or on the go through a T-Com HotSpot.
The Nokia E60 and the Nokia N80 are the first Nokia devices that are able to support SIP-based Internet Calls. Both of these devices work on GSM, WCDMA and WLAN networks. The Nokia N80 is the first ever handset to enable seamless home media networking between compatible TVs, audio systems and PCs.
