Abstract
We discuss the current state and the future challenges of software architecture work pertaining to the mobile handset families produced by Nokia. We identify the most important variance factors in the product set, present some open problems in the product family development, and outline a case study for employing the system family technology developed in the ESAPS project to the development of mobile handsets at Nokia.
