I'm writing this from Amsterdam, where Nokia is holding its annual Nokia World event. Sadly, despite the name, it's NOT a theme park with N95-shaped rollercoasters. Yes, I probably did use this same joke last year.
Instead, it's part talking shop and part exhibition. The talking bit sees Nokia's top executives setting out their current strategy and future vision, alongside big-name guest speakers - this year's roster includes Wired magazine's Chris Anderson (he of long tail fame) and speakers from Universal Music Group, Technorati, MIT Media Laboratory and Ogilvy Group.
Meanwhile, the exhibition part sees dozens of companies showing off new mobile applications and services, as well as Nokia's own showcases – which may include some new handsets, if they're announced this morning as expected. I'll be posting session reports, interviews and hands-on demos throughout the next couple of days.
