Nokia holds fire on mobile gaming

> Nokia is holding off on mobile gaming for a few years and will not be building new versions of the N-Gage gaming phone.

Not really a big surprise. If I want to play games, I’ll use a GameBoy or a PSP, and if I want to make calls, I’ll use a cellphone.

Nokia is going to focus on mobile music this year, and shift towards mobile tv next year. Not sure how interested I am in watching something on the tiny cellphone screen, and at the moment it’s way to expensive here in Norway. The telcos really need to lower the data traffic prices for either music or video streaming to take off.
