Invent with Nokia invites you to squeeze your creative juice for money

Invent with Nokia has just been launched by Espoo as an invitation to everyone across the world to help the company with innovative ideas. The best ideas who get recognition in the form of a patent will get financial reward, which will grow further if a proposed idea is greeted warmly by Nokia users. The Finns are calling for ideas and concepts not just for new phones, but also a “radical new feature or service.”

The first step towards the financial reward is submitting non-confidential information about the idea on Nokia’s newly launched Invent with Nokia website. Most importantly, the rest of the information should be perfectly secure. If your idea passes through the inevitable flood of propositions you'll also be inducted into “a hall of fame.”

As good as it all sounds, another view at the matter suggests that Nokia could be struggling with ideas to differentiate in the Windows Phone world where it’s taking its baby steps. Latest rumor on the street pointed at four WP7 devices being developed by the Finns, and some of them seemed to look more like a copy of existing handsets like the N8 or the business E-series than something groundbreakingly new. What in your opinion could differentiate Espoo’s handsets? Sound off in the comments after you see Nokia’s main man Stephen Elop explain all the details about Innovate with Nokia in the video below.
