MobileM@il Plus comes with a bundle of 10MB data and PhoneSafe – a mobile phone security solution that lets customers lock phone, backup and delete important data such as emails from phones remotely.

“We want to make mobile messaging as ubiquitous as voice or SMS. Nokia Messaging gives people a simple and affordable mobile access to the world’s most popular email in the marketplace. We believe mobile messaging is a critical, must-have feature, and we deliver mobile messaging solutions to the broadest range of devices, all easily activated with a few clicks,” said Vlasta Berka, General Manager, Nokia Singapore, Malaysia & Brunei.

SingTel MobileM@il Plus plans for the Nokia Messaging solution will also be offered across other Nokia devices including the Nokia E75 which will be available very soon.

“Our new BREW client enables Funambol to support almost two billion phones for push email,” said Fabrizio Capobianco, Funambol CEO. “It enables CDMA operators to provide hundreds of million of users with a compelling mobile messaging experience. It also strengthens Funambol as the leading cross-platform mobile open source project.”

BREW stands for “Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless”. It is an application development platform created by Qualcomm for mobile phones. The new Funambol BREW Push Email Client uses SyncML (OMA DS) to support almost all of the smart and feature phones in service worldwide.

It also features the patented Optimizer transcoding gateway, which reduces the size of pictures and allows a large variety of attachments, such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents, to be displayed on feature phones that would otherwise be unable to support this functionality. Users can register for the service from their mobile handset directly without the need of a PC.

Key features of Synchronica SimpleMail include:

• ‘Email to SMS’ and ‘Email to MMS’ gateways
• Client-less solution for WAP/xHTML browser access
• Email transcoding and compression engine reduces network traffic and enables standard mobile phones to display a variety of attachments
• Support for .doc, .zip, .pdf, .mpeg, MP3 and HTML attachments
• Supports Google Mail, Yahoo, MSN Hotmail+ and any POP3, IMAP4 mailboxes
• Real-time device auto-detection
• Multi-lingual support (English, Cyrillic, Chinese, Arabic, Kanji)
• Support for multiple email accounts on one device

Using new, state-of-the-art SUN technology, all the whiz-bangs, swivel screens, colors and graphics offered by the user’s favorite mobile device, are heightened with emoze technology, ensuring a smooth transition from desktop to mobile. emoze’s Java client supports a range of personal and corporate data sources including Microsoft Exchange (Outlook), POP3/IMAP servers, as well as Web mail servers like Gmail.

The BlackBerry Internet Service will cost 3,045 yen per month (tax included). The FOMA basic monthly fee and normal packet charges will apply separately. In addition, a discount packet-billing plan to be launched on September 1, called the BlackBerry Data Transmission Package, will enable users to transmit up to 80,000 packets of data per month for a flat charge of 1,680 yen. Data exceeding this limit will be charged at 0.0525 yen per packet.

DOCOMO will demonstrate the new BlackBerry Internet Service during Wireless Japan 2008 at Tokyo Big Sight from July 22 to 24.

Sprint worked with SEVEN to create Sprint Mobile Email Work, which allows customers to access Microsoft Exchange Server 2000, 2003 or 2007 accounts, or IBM Lotus Domino accounts. Sprint Mobile Email Work is preloaded on the Instinct, so customers simply select Email on the main Menu to get to Sprint Mobile Email, then click the Work tab and enter their server information, user name and password. Emails are then pushed to the user’s phone as they arrive in their desktop mailbox. Users can read, delete, respond to and compose new emails. All changes made via the Sprint phone are automatically synchronized with the user’s desktop mailbox.

Sprint Mobile Email Work is included at no additional charge in Everything plans starting at $69.99, Talk/Message/Data Share plans starting at $129.99 for two lines, and the $30 Sprint Pro Pack data plan. With all other plans, Sprint Mobile Email Work is available for $9.99 per month, in addition to voice and data charges (taxes and surcharges excluded).

In addition to the Instinct by Samsung, Sprint Mobile Email Work will be available in the coming weeks on 11 other popular Sprint phones, including the Rumor and Fusic by LG; the RAZR, RAZR2 and KRZR by Motorola; the A900, A900M and M500 by Samsung; and the Katana, Katana II and 8400 by Sanyo. Sprint plans to extend the service to additional phones in the future.

Sprint Mobile Email Work will be provided as a software update in the coming weeks to customers with Sprint Mobile Email on compatible phones. To download Sprint Mobile Email, customers should go to the mobile Web on their phone and select Downloads, then type “email” in the search box. Once Sprint Mobile Email is downloaded, compatible phones will allow the customer to install Sprint Mobile Email Work through a software update when available.
