re: Telia of Sweden using GARBO by BlueFactory for i-mode Inspired Content Services >> Telia Providing i-mode Inspired Content Services Cellular News November 30, 2001 Sweden's Telia is presenting a new business opportunity for content providers of mobile services. The new initiative will result in a direct channel to Telia's mobile customers for the content providers, and easy billing through mobile phone invoices or prepaid cards. In connection with the launch of the open interface, Telia will introduce a new payment model for content providers. Which means that Telia will charge content providers for traffic rates and 20% of the price for the services being offered customers. The payment model for premium SMS customers will also be adjusted at the same time. The new initiative is based on the mobile service platform, GARBO by BlueFactory. GARBO offers operators a solution for service provisioning and simplifies the development of mobile applications for content providers. GARBO enables more flexible pricing and reduces lead times for new services, making more services available to the end-user. GARBO has been installed at Telia and will soon be open for content providers. GARBO supports both existing (SMS, WAP, positioning) and future (JAVA, MMS, EMS, 3G) technologies. When developing GARBO BlueFactory was inspired by the concepts behind Japanese i-mode(TM) and has adapted the platform for European conditions. << - Eric -
