Nokia today announced collaboration with Orange to facilitate device customization and strengthen the role of S60 devices in Orange’s device portfolio.

Nokia and OrangeThe focus of the collaboration is to create an Orange specific software package to complement S60 software on Symbian OS and to accelerate the Orange device customization process. This will in turn help S60 device manufacturers, who will benefit from greater cost efficiency and shorter time-to-market. Joint activities will include creating synergies between S60 and Orange roadmaps, and testing Orange specific software assets and application development in cooperation with the Orange Partner organisation and Forum Nokia, Nokia’s global developer program.

Again, it’s good to hear that Nokia is working with telecoms, but wait I don’t want ogly menus from my operator. :(
