Nokia and Adobe Systems announced that the standard sales pack of the new Nokia N93 mobile device will incorporate Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 software for Windows XP. With Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0, video captured using the Nokia N93 can now be transferred to compatible desktop PCs to edit, burn to DVD, and export to other formats for Web streaming and e-mail. Delivered free of charge to Nokia N93 customers, Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 (valued at US$ 99.99) will further enhance the video capture and sharing experience.

Featuring DVD-like video capture at 30 frames-per-second, a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and 3x optical zoom with video stabilization, the Nokia N93 offers users digital camcorder benefits without compromising mobile phone functionality and ease of use. With Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0, owners of Nokia N93 can experiment with hundreds of professional transitions and effects and burn videos to DVD, one of many formats the software supports.

“The video capture quality of our new N93 is so good, we felt that providing users with great, easy-to-use editing and DVD burning software was an absolute must,” said Mike Butler, vice president of solution creation and delivery for Multimedia, Nokia.

“With Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0, you can easily turn those high-quality video clips captured with N93 into great home movies. And even better, you can burn them on a DVD to share with friends and family.”

Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 software is also included in the standard Nokia N93 sales pack and allows consumers to fix their high-quality digital photos utilizing the large screen of a compatible PC. With Photoshop Starter 3.0, cropping, rotating, and red eye reduction can be carried out in just a few seconds.

Nokia and Adobe have been cooperating on providing users with complete imaging solutions since early 2004. Nokia also licenses Macromedia Flash technology from Adobe and recently announced the creation of Nokia PRO: Flash Zone, a new support program to turbo-charge the development of Flash content for Nokia handsets.

Adobe Premiere Elements 2.0 will be available in the standard sales pack of the new Nokia N93 in Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Americas markets. The Nokia N93 is expected to become available in July, with an estimated, unsubsidized sale price of 700 euros.
