Nokia told Fierce Wireless Tuesday that they want to offer a WP7 flagship device for each of the major US network operators. According to Nokia’s Chris Weber:
“The most important thing we can do in the U.S. market is bring exclusive devices and opportunities to each of the carriers. Doing that exclusivity and giving them something unique allows us to get great carrier support. I think it’s critical for us to be successful in the U.S. That’s the way you get great carrier support.”
So far, we’ve now seen partnerships with AT&T and T-Mobile, but no indication of when Verizon and Sprint could get similar devices.
