Nokia to Close Down Data Access Service Ovi Files

| by Reuters | Smartphones

Nokia has decided to close down its Ovi Files service which allows consumers to access their computers data remotely, the world's top cellphone maker said in an e-mail to users of the service. "Nokia is discontinuing the Ovi Files service, effective October 1, 2010," the company said, asking users to uninstall the Ovi Files Connector from their computers.

Nokia started to build its own Internet services offering in 2007, but has ramped down several unsuccessful products lately. Nokia built the Ovi Files service, which allows users to access files on their computers from any remote computer through Internet, on top of its 2007 acquisition of U.S. firm Avvenu.

We’ve already established that the Lumia 720 is Nokia’s best effort as far as Windows Phone 8 handsets go. This could soon change once the Lumia 925 hits markets, but as it stands now, the Lumia 720 offers the best blend of features and performance, wrapped in a beautiful package that’s quite affordable.
