Espoo, Finland - Nokia today announced that the
Nokia N95 8GB had the distinction of being the first ever mobile phone
to receive Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) certification.
January 18, 2008 - The
DLNA is a body advocating the interoperability of wired and wireless
consumer devices. For the consumer, this accolade translates into
convenient and intuitive connectivity between your DLNA Certified home
electronics devices, personal computers, and your Nokia N95 8GB.
DLNA
technology enables multi-vendor home ecosystems of consumer devices by
building a common connectivity platform for a variety of multimedia
experiences. This vision is fully in line with the Nokia's aspiration
for openness and seamless interoperability between devices and services
from different brands.
DLNA
has certified the Nokia N95 8GB as a Mobile Digital Media Server, an
acknowledgment that taps into the genius of this multimedia computer.
The extensive connectivity and cutting-edge media capabilities of the
Nokia N95 8GB are ideal for enjoying content, such as music, photos or
videos, wirelessly on other devices in the home environment.
"We
are thrilled to receive this tribute from the DLNA. The Nokia N95 8GB
is truly a masterpiece of a multimedia computer, and a prime example of
the direction mobility is taking - it's personal, powerful and fits
seamlessly into your life inside and outside the home," said Anssi
Vanjoki, executive vice president, Markets, Nokia.
DLNA
has already certified over 1800 products in the personal computer and
consumer electronic categories, but this is the first time the
stringent guidelines for interoperability set by the DLNA have been met
by a mobile phone. Mobile devices were included in the DLNA Networked
Device Interoperability Guidelines that were published in early 2006,
and are now part of the recently launched DLNA certification program.
The Nokia N95 8GB passed DLNA's rigorous testing process to receive the
green DLNA Certified logo, a marker of its leading position in the
mobile domain of the digital home.
With
up to eight gigabytes of built-in memory, the Nokia N95 8GB can hold a
vast selection of your favorite media content, like those ski vacation
photos and your music collection. You can share these with your friends
and family on a DLNA Certified home entertainment system and enjoy your
photos on a full-sized TV screen or jam to those tunes on your home
stereo system. All you need to do is share the content wirelessly from
your Nokia N95 8GB.
Nokia
is an active member of the DLNA and has been driving interoperability
of mobile, PC, and consumer electronics devices at and beyond home. As
mobile phones have converted into diverse multimedia computers, they
serve as the primary gateway to the Internet, services and content for
millions of people around the world. Nokia is mobilizing home
multimedia content and enabling remote access to home content using
your Nokia mobile devices.
