Nokia Wants Your Ideas
Have you been holding on to a unique idea that would revolutionize the way we communicate? If so, a new program called, “Invent with Nokia,” may be exactly what you are looking for. According to Nokia:
Having a great idea is one thing, but having that idea turned into a reality is often much more difficult, costly and time consuming and so ideas rarely come to fruition. What if you had a great idea for a future device, or a radical new feature or service? Nokia has today launched a new program that allows you to submit your ideas. Invent With Nokia is now open for ideas.
If your idea is accepted and a patent filed as a result, the financial rewards mean it should definitely be worth giving it a go and there could be further rewards if a product or service based on the invention is successful with consumers. In addition to the monetary rewards, you’ll also take your place in a hall of fame, giving you public recognition for your invention so everybody will know who you are.

My names are Edward Makobore a post graduate student of Nkozi university in
Kampala, uganda in East Africa.
As i sat taking notes in class i wondered why i was not taking them
directly on some form of mini device (hybrid btn phone and computer).
It then hit me that none of the hardware/ software manufacturers has tailor
made any form of mini comp purposely for students.
A few intelligent people are using Ipads or other devices but these were *not
ideally *meant for this purpose.
If a handset was made slightly bigger than the Nokia 1100, enabling a user
to use two thumbs most especially if he/ she were typing in T9 mode, a user
would very easily keep pace taking notes with a lecturer. A little training
could ensure this.
The software on the set could also be tailor made to facilitate this new
“studentcomp”.
The software could build on the wordprocessing, xcel basically similar to
the desktop computer.
To ensure this undertaking is a success *a lot of branding and advertising
would be necessary* to show that Nokia is interested in education sector
and has come up with a product that will
1. organise the students work
2. Quicken taking of class notes
3. Save time writing and then later typing work.
