Nokia has "increased confidence" that the first of its smartphones with Windows Phone will ship in the fourth quarter, the company said on Tuesday.
Nokia's CEO Stephen Elop seems to have set his sights on getting a Windows Phone-based product out for the important end-of-year holiday shopping season, in order to help turn around the company's smartphone fortunes. The company's teams are aligned around that goal, he said in a statement.
The company won't divulge ship dates until closer to when the first phones arrive, but the pressure is on to deliver the devices this year, Elop said when the company announced its first quarter results.
He promised to later give an update on the company's partnership with Microsoft, and set the stage for a number of product and service launches, according to the program.
