Bulletin Wireless Announces Commercial launch with Telecom New Zealand

ATLANTA -- Bulletin Wireless, a leading developer and supplier of wireless Internet and voice products, and Telecom Mobile Ltd announced today that Telecom Mobile will deliver Bulletin Wireless’s web messenger product line throughout its rapidly growing subscriber base in New Zealand. Telecom Mobile will be promoting the service as a new product “Telecom Broadcast Text” utilizing their Wireless networks.

Telecom Broadcast Text gives customers instant access using the power of the Internet to exchange information with their work colleagues, family, or friends. It allows users to send messages to mobile phones, and receive messages back from the mobile. It automatically associates the reply with the original message and lets users send the same message to any number of mobile phones. A message log shows users what has been sent and received and shows the status of messages – eg that the message has been received at the mobile handset.

It is perfect for companies with a large mobile work force, especially when information needs to be distributed quickly and accurately. It allows users to send messages to their mobile sales team, service team or anyone else in the company quickly, easily and cost effectively.

This tool allows companies to leverage their current assets without expensive re-engineering and retooling of their field personnel.

“With Bulletin Wireless’s flexibility in deploying both vertical and horizontal data solutions,” says Clinton Haswell, Portfolio Manager – Messaging for Telecom Mobile, “it was an easy decision to make.” He continued, “Telecom Mobile has now secured a strong product to position it self for the explosive growth in the wireless data arena.”

“It is a pleasure to work with an operator like Telecom Mobile, who is focused on delivering solutions to their digital subscriber base”, says Paul Treacy Business Development Manager. “Many operators have taken their eye off their addressable market and are looking to only create data applications based on futuristic technology, which does not hit the mark for customers that are looking for solutions to work with their current handset technology.”
