Vodafone Ireland Launches BlackBerry
Vodafone Ireland, Ireland's leading mobile operator, has launched the BlackBerry wireless solution for corporate users, featuring the BlackBerry 7230 Wireless Handheld.
his is the first BlackBerry offering available to Vodafone customers in Ireland. The BlackBerry 7230 provides integrated support for phone, email, intranet, Internet, SMS and organizer applications. The BlackBerry 7230 also features a high-resolution color screen and customized user-interface using Vodafone Live iconography which customers will find easy to use.
BlackBerry from Vodafone is initially being aimed to the corporate business market with BlackBerry Enterprise Server. BlackBerry Enterprise Server software tightly integrates with Microsoft Exchange or IBM Lotus Domino and works with existing enterprise systems to enable secure, push-based, wireless access to email and other corporate data.
Chris Handley, Data Product Marketing Manager, Vodafone Ireland said, "The launch of BlackBerry from Vodafone is exciting news for Vodafone Ireland. Over recent years we have significantly increased our voice and data offering to business customers. The addition of BlackBerry to our portfolio of products is good news for both Vodafone Ireland and our customers."
Vodafone Ireland plans to extend its BlackBerry offering over the coming months and plans to launch BlackBerry Web Client for individuals and the SME and SOHO business markets this autumn. BlackBerry Web Client features an Internet-based email interface that allows users to access multiple existing corporate and/or personal email accounts (including Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Domino and popular ISP email accounts) from a single BlackBerry handheld.
