This coupled with multi-lingual support of the regional version of the cell phones would be great. Supported Devices should be increased from a handful at present. From Low end to high end devices should be able to work and not to mention a mobi site would add wonders. I am looking forward to seeing a site dedicated to Punjabi Or Hindu faith as well. I would love to listen to holy hymns and read verses and have a wallpaper or screen-saver as well. (we already have the later but a peoper dedicated mobi site frequently updated would be amazing). Nokia Maps sounds amazing. This is a great. This coupled with multi-lingual support of the regional version of the cell phones would be great.

I realize that Nokia will get a lot of "What about Judaism?" "What about Christianity?" posts to these apps, but remember that for a Muslim, religion is more integrated into their daily life than other faiths. There are times to prayer, foods to eat and not eat, and other demands that make followers of the faith unique. I think that this is a nice first step, and rolling this out to other major religions would be the great. There are tons of apps for reading the Quaran, the Bible and the Tanakh, but it nice to see Nokia show that they are in touch with the multitude of their users.
