Orange and Nokia have agreed to extend their partnership on mobile services to include maps, advertising and gaming.
The companies hope to follow the deal with a strategic partnership by mid-2008.
Orange plans to extend its Signature Series portfolio, which includes a wide range of Nokia handsets.
The France Telecom-owned network operator said its strategy is to become a leader in advertising solutions for mobile and internet.

The partnership will be underpinned by co-marketing and sales activities, building on the collaboration that already exists between the two.
