Nokia details Lumia's global roll out with interactive Momentum Map
Having laid out its plans for the launch of its first Windows Phone in the US at CES 2012, Nokia has now decided to detail the global expansion of its entire Lumia range with a self-dubbed Momentum Map.

The site, which the Finnish firm says will be regularly updated, shows all the territories around the globe where Nokia's first Windows Phones are currently, or will shortly be, on sale.

The global game

The map also breaks the range's roll out down to a device-by-device level, highlighting just what models are available in each country, and when new additions are due to ship.



This is no business tool, however: no mention is made as to how the devices are being received in each region, Lumia sales and market share post-launch is still the subject of much speculation.

Instead, Nokia claims the Momentum Map will soon tap into social networks such as Twitter, adding colour and context to launches by featuring – presumably highly moderated – tweets from users in said markets.
