"Initially, the projects at the Nokia Research Center will focus on ways to interact with mobile devices using speech- and handwriting-recognition technology, and methods for users to connect a variety of mobile devices to each other across the Internet.

While Nokia has partnered with MIT on research efforts for some 20 years, officials said the Cambridge center will allow for the sort of daily interaction necessary to move development efforts forward rapidly and push some of those technologies into Nokia's products more quickly."
