CANNES, France, Feb. 24 - 3GSM World Congress -- Metrowerks has been selected by Nokia to provide technology to Forum Nokia PRO - a new program that provides developers with support for the creation of applications for Nokia handsets.

Metrowerks Developer Services plans to equip the Forum Nokia PRO developer program with industry-leading services and web infrastructure designed to enhance the fulfillment of service to program members, including an infrastructure that allows Nokia to implement targeted developer campaigns as well as generate and manage developer-facing content.

        events;
   --  Preferred consideration for inclusion in Nokia-published software
        catalogs; and

        themselves undertake.

Forum Nokia, Nokia's developer community based offering, along with Forum Nokia PRO, connects developers to tools, technical information, support, and distribution channels that they can use to build and market applications around the globe.
