MONTE CARLO, Monaco – It’s fair to say that as an official sponsor, Nokia has had a big presence at this year’s WIMA event. Yesterday, we launched our first NFC-enabled Lumia phone, Nokia Lumia 610 NFC. And today Prince Albert of Monaco dropped by the Nokia stand to get a demonstration of NFC for himself.

We’re not exactly sure what you can use NFC for if you’re a Prince, but there are bound to be lots of possibilities.  He looked pretty happy, so maybe he just likes a great phone.

On top of that, we’ve been showcasing our entire range of NFC-enabled smartphones (there are now a whopping eight of them!). We’ve also been demoing apps that make the most of this exciting technology.
