With a new application developed by Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia users can create personal pages on their mobile phones
complete with text and graphics and exchange these with other phones, essentially turning their handsets into wireless Web
servers.
The Nokia Sensor application uses short-range Bluetooth radio technology to exchange pages and share files between phones
within a range of up to 10 meters.
When users download the application at www.nokia.com/sensor, they are given templates to build their own personal pages, according
to Nokia spokeswoman Marika Kojo.
"This is a totally new way of communicating with people in the same location," he said. "You can check out people before you
meet them in a bar or restaurant or wherever. It's very spontaneous."
It's also free communication.

Nokia Sensor, which works only on Nokia products, is available for a number of models, including 3230, 6260, 6600, 6620, 6630,
6670, 6680, 6681, 6682, and 7610.
