Nokia Multimedia Factory
Nokia multimedia factory is a software program developed for Windows. The application is designed to convert video files stored on your computer to a format compatible with Nokia mobile phones. It is able to support a wide range of formats, including AVI, MPEG, WMV, ASF, DivX, WEBM, FLV and SWF. It also supports a large number of pre-configured profiles for specific Nokia phone models.
In 1998, Nokia overtook Motorola to become the world’s dominant mobile phone manufacturer with a 51% global market share. However, the company’s meteoric rise was followed by a dramatic and painful decline. Its device-centric hardware operating system called Symbian proved to be aging and obsolete. As competitors such as Apple and Android embraced software-based operating systems, Nokia was left behind. The firm’s management culture contributed to its demise. Temperamental leaders and frightened middle managers dominated the ranks, fostering organizational fear and inhibiting the ability to acknowledge shortcomings in product development.
Nokia’s facility at Sriperumbudur, 50km west of Chennai, India, employs 2,000 workers. It produces the Nokia 1100 handset, which features a 96x65 pixel screen, four lines of text messaging and menu functions on its navi key silicon keymat. Up to four calls can be made using the microphone and a speaker, while the camera takes two-megapixel images. A built-in flashlight and vibration alert are included. The phone uses a GSM network to access calling, SMS and email services, and it connects to the internet via Bluetooth.
