"BARCELONA (Reuters) - Nokia will add Google to the list of search engines consumers can access from its handsets, the companies said on Tuesday.
Nokia has similar deals in place with Yahoo and Microsoft around the world, and with Baidu in China and Yandex in Russia.
"Providing choices for our consumers is an important driver in Nokia's Internet service strategy," Ilkka Raiskinen, Nokia's vice-president of software and services, said in a statement issued at the Mobile World Congress wireless fair in Barcelona.
As networks grow faster and most mobile phone handsets now come with Web browsers, Internet companies are moving aggressively to bring search, e-mail, mapping and other familiar online services to phones.
Google search would at first be added to selected phones and markets and later to some mass-market models in more than 100 countries, the companies said."
