    From on-demand mobile TV streamed over 2.5G, 3G and Wi-Fi, through to push email services, SMS Q&A services and ad-hoc conference-calling applications, amongst others, we aim to offer our partner Mobile Operators and Handset Manufacturers a broad range of interesting, saleable and useful revenue-generating services.

    Our free mobile push email service is one such product.

    Hi Bruce
    do u know if i need to have a mobile tariff to receive email notification via sms ? i mean, what i get email notification is that sms or the whole of email itself ? what i am after is just to get notification of arrival of new email via sms. i do not want to read or send from within my handset, that means i am not willing to start mobile data plan. Is it possible ?

    Any idea what is happening? The share price is all over the place, Alexander has left, they are closing bits of their operation down and now they cannot file their quarterly report to the SEC because they cannot afford to prepare it.

    I would be interested in news and views.
