Nokia and Lycos Europe announce cooperation in Multimedia Messaging
Services
Nokia and Lycos Europe today announced that they will work together
to develop Multimedia Messaging Services. Lycos Europe have recently
launched their Mobile Channel, merging its communities with the power
of mobile technology. Lycos' new channel is currently built around
its mainstay SMS service which is the leading SMS web to phone and
phone to web service in Europe. Extending Lycos Mobile with new MMS
features and MMS content gives the users -in a community environment-
an even more exciting experience of informative and entertainment MMS
services. Features like composing Multimedia Messages out of ready
-made Lycos content or personal created images will make MMS more
accessible to the consumer.
"Multimedia Messaging Service enables personalized, versatile
messaging content. The new mobile generation favours messaging and
visual content over traditional voice calls. For them messaging is
the natural way to communicate. The cooperation with Lycos Europe
with its large userbase is an excellent means to bring services to
the customer and demonstrate the potential of Multimedia Messaging
Services", said Anssi Vanjoki, Executive Vice President, Nokia Mobile
Phones.
"With our latest product developments of trendsetting mobile features
we are well prepared for such technological innovations. The
cooperation with Nokia is a great chance for us to act as one of the
first movers in this field and to introduce this new generation of
communication services to the millions of Lycos users", said Dr.
Jürgen Galler, Managing Director Lycos Mobile and Vice President
Lycos Europe.
Multimedia Messaging Services facilitate new styles of communication
that respond to the needs of a society where business and personal
lifestyles are changing and evolving ever faster. Nokia's approach is
based upon a series of evolutionary steps: text messaging (text
only), picture messaging (text and graphics), MMS -Multimedia
Messaging Service (first phase: still images, graphics, voice or
audio clips and text, later also video clips). MMS is the most
versatile standardised messaging service to date, including all the
features and content types of preceding messaging services.
Multimedia Messaging Service is an open standard supported by 3GPP
and WAP Forum and it is bearer independent.
