We are just two days away from Nokia World 2011 where Nokia will reveal their first set of Windows Phone devices. Hype is really building up surrounding Nokia, and adding to that is the latest report from the German Business Week, who spoke to some German Mobile heads who uniformly said that they were impressed with the device and felt it exceeded their expectations.

“The phone is characterized by a cool design and great build quality,” says Niek Jan van Damme , Germany business responsible for the management board of Deutsche Telekom, “I’m sure that Nokia can thus build on previous successes.”

Even with O2 Germany CEO René Schuster, the unit has left a good impression. “I am particularly impressed by the design and simple user guidance,” says Schuster. “The device will stimulate the market. We would like to offer it in the Christmas season.”

Freenet-chief Christoph Vilanek, one of the largest distributor of Nokia in Germany felt Windows phone on Nokia would stimulate sales : “Nokia starts with this device back where it left off before the crisis – at the top in quality, design and functionality “raves Vilanek.

Mobilcom-Debitel would “adopt the device in December as a top device and promote it in TV and print publications.”
