Nokia to Stop the Ovi Files Service on October,1

What is OVI Files? Why Nokia closed it down? Question many are Asking...I think the reaction is symptomatic when an owner of Nokia E72 with preinstalled OVI Files cannot understand the nature of the service. I would like to remind that the service was offered to store your files on an external server with 1 GB of space and more. It was not a clear cut offer when you do not have unlimited data plans and fast internet connections. It is more appropriate to use WiFi and still it is not clear which files on your phone require remote storage.

The service was ruthlessly shut down due to failure and the lack of success. Starting from October 1, 2010 OVI Files will not be available according to the Nokia website. Users are advised to uninstall all related software from their PCs. I am interested how Nokia will uninstall the associated app from Eseries models on sale. The models are already in shops, but when the customers try to launch an application they will get a message that the service is no longer supported. It does not sound nice for a new phone. It leads to the destruction of brand image, which is already underway.
