Nokia Ouvert. Nokia Avata.

Both are the word "open" in French and Finnish.

Look at us. Even the ****ing marketing for Maemo is crowdsourced now. lol

Avata is a verb. Avoin would be the noun you want.

Yes, it does go well with Ovi.

I think this could even be spun well for marketing purposes.

"The Nokia Avata... so open, the community even named it. Come feel what real mobile freedom can be."
