VODAFONE INTRODUCES VODAFONE LIVE!(TM) ENHANCED WITH 3G IN EUROPE
Vodafone announces today the introduction of ‘Vodafone live!(TM) with 3G’ for
consumers in Europe.
Vodafone live!(TM), the industry-leading, multi-media consumer service, will be
enhanced by 3G technology in a series of phases. This will bring consumers
improved quality, sound, pictures and videos, as well as increased speed when
downloading games and ringtones. They will also be able to access a select
range of new services such as video calling, video downloads (sport, news, music
and general entertainment) and the streaming of live events to their handset, as
well as existing services such as video messaging.
Vodafone is the first mobile operator to bring 3G technology to both business
and consumer markets across a number of European countries. For the consumer
market, initially this will be on two new handsets – the Samsung Z105 shortly
followed by the Sony Ericsson Z1010.
From today, Vodafone live!(TM) with 3G is available on the Samsung Z105 handset
in selected retail outlets in Germany and Portugal. Other countries will follow
in the coming months.
Vodafone live!(TM) with 3G will be enhanced later this year, when there will be
a wider selection of handsets available, together with an even more extensive
range of content.
