Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia is set to make its first Windows Phone 8 devices available for purchase in the United States starting with the next month, and it appears that it is also preparing a shopping mall tour to promote them.

The company has already posted a job listing that calls for all those with skills in the Retail/ Mall/ Kiosk/ Promotions area to join it at promoting the new Lumia devices between November 12th and December 31st.

This kind of promotions is often met in the United States, and Nokia appears to have decided to make a similar move to ensure that its new devices enjoy a good start in the country, the guys over at WPCentral found out.

Apparently, the company did the same with its Symbian devices before, and it's no wonder it will do so with Lumia 920 and Lumia 820.

Smart decision-I suggested this a few months back in one of my comments. Key is to get knowledgeable people who can be trained to demo phones and accessories. It appears that this is just for promotion but think that permanent kiosks in malls individually owned or managed would give a permanent presence. I think one could make a good deal of money simply selling Nokia products in such a place.
