So what’s up with all the languages you may be asking? Good question! While everyone was busy sleeping (and partying over the weekend), we were very busy rolling out some new stuff for you all on Ovi.com. In case you haven’t figured out by now, we’ve rolled out Ovi.com in three new languages for you: Spanish, German and Italian. Also, in response to lots and lots of feedback from you our users we’ve made a number of usability improvements. If we’ve got it right, you might not even notice them. And if you were really asleep, maybe you missed the launch of Ovi Store – but no fear – just click on the new navigation to go straight to the Store and find great content for your device, or Mail and enjoy your truly mobile you@ovi.com email address. Thanks for checking in, now get back out there and have fun! Look fwd to your thoughts in the comments.
Pidä hauskaa!

Good job! Front page looks much cleaner now and all services are actually viewable. And everything is in German, unlike the German/English mix I had earlier.
You mean ”Bienvenido” in Spanish, Hola is Hello!
Unless you add a “delete all” button on Ovi Contacts I’ll never use that service again.
Why are some apps disappearing from the Ovi Store? This is a bit annoying as I am recommending these apps to friends and they are here today and gone tomorrow.
E.g. apps such as FlipSilent and Nokia Step Counter are such great app that is now unavailable from Ovi Store anymore.
Thank you very much! Which languages come next?!
Unfortunately some telephone numbers still vanish at synchronisation with Ovi. Nokia e71 Russian Language

Can anybody try to fix this problem?
I just checked again, Nokia Step Counter is back in the Ovi Store
however, FlipSilent app is still missing….
Keep up the good work guys.
How come nobody talks in here and not to many replies on Nokia forum?
Since nobody bothers, I will give myself an answer: Not a professional and serious approach to the developer community.
This whole OVI thing is crap! I don`t get. Such a huge comnpany as Nokia is not able to create good online services for their customers (like me).By the way where are all the greats apps for the OVI store? Take a look at google or apple. If i have something to say at Nokia i would fire all developers and hire some real talents. Sorry Nokia. Very, very disappointing.
Great! And if you at it, roll back to old design for ovi share because the present one is just horrible.
Newton,
indeed the experience is nowhere as good as Apple’s App Store at the moment (Google Market sucks as well). But jee guys, the Ovi Store was launched less a month ago. Give it some time to kill its bugs and learn from its errors. In my opinion, the problem is not in the design, it’s in the content [at the moment] available.
Developers will come once the dust settles and we see paradigms of successful applications and games. Once that happens, coders will become competitive. At the moment the Ovi Store has much legacy stuff, not functional or attractive at all.
Killer apps need killer phones and the N97 was just launched. I’m positive the situation will become better.
Many great things are handy now with the new EDGE and 3G technology, even GPRS is working superb with the new upcoming apps. OVI is one of the great new collection of apps from NOKIA which most of the users appreciated. If you want to get your own emails right into your mobile just click to get back to me. Will be happy to assist you further.
