imageNeowin spoke to Nokia’s Richard Kerris, VP of Worldwide Developer Relations who revealed a few interesting titbits.

According to Kerris “it wont be long" before we see Nokia Lumias on Sprint and Verizon and he also re-iterated that the Pureview technology will be coming to Lum1a handsets "very soon".

He said Nokia was working on innovative solutions to distance itself from the rest of the market,and gave examples such as bendable screens and a complete wrap around display so that when you want your device to be a camera, it looks like a camera.

In addition, they are also working on making devices become aware of where they are. For example, when you walk in to your house after work, it hides all of your business emails and content or when a child picks of the device, it can detect the small hands and lock settings and email accounts.

Kerris believes that Nokia will innovate its way out of its current situation and that change will continue this Fall with new products.  Kerris states that this Spring "people will be climbing over themselves" to get at the new Nokia products.
