Globe, partners usher in mobile office’s future

Three of the leading communications providers in the Asia-Pacific – Globe Telecom, Singapore Telecom (SingTel) and Optus – have formed a partnership to further provide innovative services that cater to their subscribers’ needs and the best of global communications.

Globe Telecom, Optus and SingTel have a significant presence in the telecommunications arena as they continue to deliver cutting-edge and world-class services to their respective markets in the Philippines, Australia and Singapore.

To date, the three telecommunications companies have pioneered cutting-edge technology platforms that have enabled them to provide advanced services that later on became an essential part of their subscribers’ lives.

Further strengthening its leadership in providing world-class products and services to its subscribers, Globe Telecom has launched simultaneously with SingTel and Optus, the definitive communications application for the business world – Mobile Mail.

Mobile Mail is a service offered by Globe Telecom’s corporate solutions arm, GlobeSolutions.

Mobile Mail utilizes a platform developed by System SEVEN, recipient of the 2003 Mobile Service Product of the Year in the United States.

This new service is the network’s answer to the corporate world’s insatiable need for productive and up-to-date solutions for businessmen who are out in the field. It is akin to having a virtual office that lets each subscriber have secure and confidential access to vital information.

MobileMail gives its subscribers the ability to access and respond to corporate e-mail, check calendar information, access corporate contact lists and securely work with office files from any device connected to the Internet.

Whether that device is one of the latest handhelds available to a cellphone that has GPRS and WAP capability, to a PC or laptop that is connected to the Internet, MobileMail gives its users the complete freedom to choose when and how they connect to their office information.

To maximize the MobileMail service, Globe Handyphone is introducing top-of-the-line PDA phones. Choose from the variety of PDA handsets like the Palm Tungsten W, QTEK 1010 and Handspring Treo 270 and 180 which offer customers the ability to match leading technological features and benefits to their own corporate needs.

MobileMail Personal Edition is now available to subscribers for an affordable monthly maintenance fee of P500, and easy data access via GPRS for only P0.15/kb (applicable to company-issued lines).
