Nokia sees India & Russia as goldmines

"India is one of the most important markets for our multimedia devices," Chief Financial Officer Rick Simonson told Finnish national broadcaster YLE on Thursday. Multimedia phones usually carry a high price tag and higher profit margins.

Simonson also said Russia was a key market for Nokia's top-range 8800 model, priced at roughly 1000 euros ($1,250).

Nokia has 50% share of mobile phone market in many of the emerging countries.
