New Delhi: State-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (BSNL) Monday tied up with Bharat Berry
Technologies to provide push e-mail services to all its mobile
subscribers of all circles in India.
"After the successful launch of its Bharat Berry services with
MTNL Delhi and MTNL Mumbai a couple of months back, now Bharat
Berry services will be available for all BSNL GSM mobile
subscribers across India," BSNL said.
Push e-mail provides an always on capability by which new e-mails
are actively transferred. The mobile communication service Bharat
Berry works with most of the mobile phones and provides an
advanced push mail with over the air backup of the user's
contacts, tasks, calendar and notes.
BSNL in alliance with Bharat Berry is targeting this service for
all range of handsets carrying BlackBerry, Symbian, Android,
Windows Mobile and J2ME which will cover all major mobile
handsets.
"As the mobile data connectivity is improving and data usage is
growing, more and more customers are looking for push e-mail
solution on their mobile handsets as a productivity tool and as a
means to remain connected," said R.K. Upadhyay, chairman and
managing director, BSNL.
"This BSNL and Bharat Berry partnership will provide its customers
with an easy to use, cost effective solution for their mobile push
e-mail requirements," he added.
To subscribe to this service, any existing BSNL GSM mobile
subscriber can send an SMS with "SUB BB" on 51123 and follow basic
steps to activate this service.
For enabling access to all services, including e-mails and PIM
(personal information manager), sync users will be charged Rs.80 a
month for the combo pack while the individual services will be
available for Rs.50 each per month for both pre-paid and post-paid
GSM customers.
"Majority of the population is still in villages and lots of
Indians do not have access to a laptop and PC and it is impossible
for them today to secure their mobile contacts. Now with Bharat
Berry, they need not worry and without having a PC or laptop they
can still be assured that their data is in a secure place in less
than Rs.2 per day," said Ajay Data, founder and chief executive
officer, Bharat Berry.
The service is available for 2G as well as 3G customers.
