Nokia are joining the app family.

Their new Ovi store will be accessible from May and will be available on over 50 million S40 and S60 handsets around the world.

Nokia are doing something remarkably different with this one by offering unique location-dependent software downloads.

They’ve already signed giants like Facebook, EA, MySpace and lonely planet to their list of partners.

As with all application stores Nokia will take 30% of the revenue for software sold.

If developing downloadable apps is your thing you can submit applications via the Ovi dedicated site.
