It is a huge marketing area, and we will get there eventually, in one way or another. However, it is clear, that nobody can go to the Chinese market without a local partner.

People seem to be fixated on their mobile phones at least as much as in western culture, and mobile gaming is very widely spread. The cost of mobile phones has up until now meant that in the Asian market (on average) people tend to have older and cheaper devices with lower specifications than in the Western market. This is a gap that has been closing quite rapidly and that we expect to keep doing so, resulting in a very quickly growing market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><br class=\"m_1937672840362669149gmail-kix-line-break\" \/><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif;\"><strong>Veli-Pekka<\/strong>: I definitely agree with Tim.
