Nokia drops N73 model from gaming service

Nokia has dropped plans to add its gaming service to the older, but
very successful N73 model, a spokesman for the top cellphone maker
said on Monday.

Nokia promised last year to "soon" add the gaming service to the
world's most sold smartphone, but has now decided not to because of
the phone's limited computing power. Nokia has sold about 20 million
N73s.

Nokia's mobile gaming push has encountered major challenges over the
years, with consumers shunning its dedicated gaming phones, and with
its new online gaming service, opened last year, yet to move beyond a
niche audience.
