Nokia Search fever ignites in Latin America

Buenos Aires, Argentina - Nokia Search, the application for searching and finding almost anything, almost anywhere, is all new and improved. Over the past two years, Nokia Search has steadily swelled, increasing its users by 22 percent every month, with the number of searches made by those users up 24 percent on a monthly basis. Building on that momentum, Nokia Search has an array of new local search providers, available in 15 countries across Latin America from today. So, now you can trek through almost 40 countries around the world with Nokia Search as your search-and-find-it companion on your compatible Nokia device.

Three new local search providers are joining the Nokia Search family, now spanning 38 countries worldwide. In Latin America, people can search and access local directory content by Publicar (www.paginasamarillas.com) in Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, and with www.Listaonline.com.br in Brazil and Seccion Amarilla (www.seccionamarilla.com) in Mexico. Nokia Search also has web content and local directory content search available for an additional 23 countries.

“We’re on a mission to bring everyone the ultimate search capabilities, whether locally or on the web,” says Jussi-Pekka Partanen, head of Nokia Search, Multimedia, Nokia. “With the additions of our new local search providers and the new seamlessly integrated features of Nokia Search on even more devices, we’re fast on the road to that goal.”
