People Hub in Windows Phone displays all call, text, email and social network interactions with any individual contact in an integrated view, with the ability to group contacts and pin favourite groups and individuals to the start screen for live updates and easy access to the people who matter most.
Internet Explorer 9 and one-touch Bing search ensure fast internet browsing and the Nokia Drive delivers a personal navigation device (PND) with free, turn-by-turn navigation and dedicated in-car-user-interface.
