Speech Design Extends FMC to Nokia Eseries Phones, Joins Forum Nokia PRO

Speech Design, the European provider of messaging and mobility solutions for companies and network operators, is now a member of Forum Nokia PRO, a program that provides technical, business development and marketing support to selected mobile software companies. Speech Design intends to further expand the reach of its enterprise Fixed-Mobile-Convergence (FMC) solution, Teleserver Mobile Pro, by targeting Eseries devices from Nokia, the company is quoted to have said.

Forum Nokia PRO provides specialised support for advanced developer companies creating the next generation of software based on the Series 40, S60 and Series 80 platforms from Nokia. A select number of companies worldwide who demonstrate industry leadership are chosen as Forum Nokia PRO members, the company claimed.

Teleserver Mobile Pro transforms Nokia Eseries mobiles into extensions of the corporate telephone system, giving mobile users access to many convenient office functions—'call forward', 'consultation hold', 'multiparty conference', and such. All office calls can be placed and received either on Nokia Eseries handset or on the desktop phone, as desired. Switching phones in mid-conversation is also supported, the company said.
