Paul Jacobs, Qualcomm CEO, announced that Nokia plans to release its first smartphone based on the Snapdragon platform hardware.
Mr. Jacobs did not specify when the communicator will appear on the market and what specifications it would have, saying only that Symbian would play the role of the operating system on the device.


Taking into consideration the nature of Snapdragon, one can assume that the smartphone will be able to work with high-definition video and three-dimensional graphics. Probably, the device controller will have Wi-Fi. It is also possible that the device will have the Snapdragon platform of the next generation, which will include Scorpion processor with speed up to 1.5 GHz.
Let us remind you that for about one and a half years ago, relations between Nokia and Qualcomm were very strained. Companies accused each other of violating patents on technology used in mobile communication system, and sought a ban on the import and sale of certain products in the United States. However they settled a conflict and concluded a long-term license agreement relating to technologies and GSM, EDGE, CDMA, WCDMA, HSDPA, WiMAX and LTE wireless standards.
