Nokia offers payment in the OVI store *only* by credit card.

Since nearly anybody can arrange a PayPal account themselves with one's local bank, but not very much people can afford - or want to own - a credit card, wouldn't it be just be outright *smart* - also for 'branding (N900) by sales' - to offer PayPal as an option?

At the moment Nokia is *hindering* sales - not facilitating them.

So anyone know where I can buy QuickPanorama on a Paypal account?



PS

Another explanation could be that Nokia has more interest in (partners in) the banking industry than in 'customers'

Before they expand the payment solution. they must make sure you have somthing to buy. At the moment, I doubt paypal is visible on nokia's radar

If you want to *brand* your flagship - you want it to fly.

By this blockade you're sinking it.

PayPal would be nice, exspecially considering there isn't a option to pay with phonebill or Visa Electron.

I'm sure you will get paypal when/if Ovi will be usable. Focus now must be to attract content.

As it is right now. Ovi store could be gone in 1 year...

Is there a Yahoo market? If Nokia and Yahoo are working more closely together it might make sense for Nokia to put software sales on their partner so they can concentrate on core businesses of OSes and handsets.
