To intensify the reach of email services to the masses, Ericsson has been selected by Indian operator Spice Telecom, to push e-mail and personal information management services via its hosted enterprise solution. The push e-mail solution provides users with real-time access to e-mail and personal information via a variety of mobile devices. Under the agreement, Ericsson will provide hosting, systems integration, and day-to-day management of the service.
It enables access to e-mails, contacts, and calendar functions while on the move. E-mails are delivered wirelessly in real-time and all activities - such as writing, deleting, or sending messages - are instantaneously reflected in the subscriber's account. Installation and maintenance of the e-mail solution are designed to offer low total cost of ownership.
With this service, customers don't need to have any particular handset, as the service is not handset dependent, and will work on most handsets that support GPRS.
