Saila Laitinen is Senior Consultancy Manager for Forum Nokia. She’s got a new book coming out on Wiley entitled, "S60 Smartphone Quality Assurance" geared towards developers, licensees, operators, and other members of the S60 ecosystem who wants to get "the big picture" of S60. She met with me this past week to discuss her new book, the S60 ecosystem, and S60 quality assurance… Enjoy!

Saila Laitinen joined Nokia year 1995 and she has worked in variety of positions and organizations within the company since then. She started as a master’s thesis worker in Nokia Networks and worked as a software engineer for three years, which sets up good grounds on having an overall understanding on software nature, development challenges as well as network technologies. During those three years she also worked as a project manager in a couple of software projects. This provided her primary understanding and know-how on how challenging it is to run the project both in budget and within given schedule.

This is certainly a surprise, I thought this was supposed to be a bi-monthly podcast, as in one every 2 months … not 2 in a month! This is a welcome surprise! Check out the Voice of 60 blog for even more information on Saila. 9 minute podcast, listen to it!

Stefan Constantinescu

Stefan Constantinescu (@WhatTheBit on Twitter) has loved technology since as far back as he can remember. It started with computers, but in the past few years his passion has turned to mobile devices. As a mobile phone enthusiast who lives and breathes devices that connect to the internet, he knows he is not alone with this radical fascination of all things wireless. He is strongly opinionated and enjoys a good debate so leave comments in his posts and he’ll get back to you! Stefan began blogging as a hobby in the fall of 2006 and joined IntoMobile in the summer of 2007. Later he got a job at Nokia in March 2008, but as of June 2009 he has rejoined the IntoMobile team. He is currently based out of Helsinki, Finland.

    I do have Skype, my information is in the “contact me” bar on the side hehe. We’re so used to RSS icons, AIM icons, Skype icons … I’m trying to be a little bit different but I suppose it’s hurting more than helping. I’ll look into making things more visible, thanks!
