Interview with Charlie Schick (audio)
By Stefan Constantinescu on Wednesday, December 6th, 2006 at 3:57 PM PST In Financial/Corporate News
Charlie Schick leads product management for Nokia (NYSE: NOK) Multimedia’s online products and gives a little bit insight how the company ‘ticks’.
- how Nokia is structured for new developments
- as well as their change from being just a manufacturer and towards a "solution provider" for the mobile person
- how the history of commerce can be linked to Nokia
- his passion and how he got into his new job
- 1996/7 or 2006 – bring back the old slides! The vision is still the same but now people and technology embrace it more
- what is the next big thing for him?

Remember Charlie Schick? He was hinting he’s working on something, but dammit he won’t give me any hints! Now that I know he works in the "user experiance" department I’m thinking that the next big thing out of Nokia will be a 3D interface. Icons in a grid have been done since Windows 1.0; time for a change.
Nicole … I’m jealous. I would’ve loved to talk to this guy!
