Rating:  Summary: Simply practical! Review: The form like Nokia expose their innovations, the form so simple of attracting the reader the simplicity of their designs makes of this book of necessary utility to understand the reasons for which the cellular telephony will dominate and it will be imposed in the short term market.
Rating:  Summary: Great information Review: There is not much literature in the area of mobile user interface design. This book is not written completely by Christian Lindholm and Turkka Keinonen, though; this book has several authors from Nokia.It is an exciting and good-looking book on the history and background of the extremely successful Nokia mobile phone design. It is very down-to-earth and visionary at the same time. If you work in the area of user interface design for mobile devices, this is a must-read. There are many new ideas in this book and I learnt much from it.
Rating:  Summary: Update.... Nokia and usability Review: Update: Not to take away from the value of the book, it seems to me that Nokia is doing a terrible job lately with its phones usability. This is my strictly intuitive observation, so read the book if you would like to learn how such observations can be done better.
When I first glanced at this book at the bookstore, I thought it was yet another book about WAP. The cover design and book title fail to convey the message that this book is not about usability per se, but really about the the people and processes in a large company that create great customer experiences. It is about innovation well facilitated and executed, and it does an excellent job in providing an outsight to how Nokia (update: forget that one, see above) and world-class companies do it.
This book belongs on the shelf next to The Art of Innovation, The Invisible Computer, and Leonardo's Laptop.
(In any case), thank you Nokia for sharing.
