re: Nokia GSM order from BTC Mobility of Bermuda Big or small, we take em all ... >> BTC Mobility of Bermuda Selects Nokia to Deliver Full GSM Network March 6, 2002 Nokia PR Nokia (NYSE:NOK) and BTC Mobility, one of Bermuda's leading mobile operators, have signed an agreement to build Bermuda's most advanced wireless GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) network. The agreement includes core- and radio-access network equipment such as switching equipment, base stations, and base station controllers, as well as radio transmission, network management and GPRS packet-data solutions. The implementation of the GSM network, which includes GPRS and EDGE-ready capabilities, will position BTC Mobility, which has recently been granted a cellular network license, to offer state-of-the-art voice and data products and services with global reach, and personal and business solutions that are uniquely designed to meet customers' demands. ``We are very pleased to partner with Nokia, knowing that we will have a first-class infrastructure made by the world leader in mobile communications,'' said Stanley G. Wright, BTC Mobility General Manager. ``BTC Mobility plans to develop complete business solutions that encompass application components that enable businesses to take advantage of opportunities to improve efficiency through wireless solutions.'' ``Nokia looks forward to a long and fruitful relationship with BTC Mobility in helping them build Bermuda's most advanced mobile network,'' said Steve Ballard, director of business development for Nokia Networks, North America. ``This cooperation further demonstrates Nokia's commitment to providing complete GSM systems with both GPRS and EDGE capabilities and its goal of providing all carriers with a direct and cost-effective path to next-generation technologies while allowing for spectral efficiencies.'' About Btc Mobility Limited BTC Mobility Limited -- a newly formed stand-alone company under KeyTech Ltd.-- first introduced cellular service to Bermuda in 1987 as a division of BTC -- and is currently the leading wireless service provider. Initially, Mobility introduced AMPS (analogue) cellular phone service, and in August 1999, launched TDMA digital PCS service. BTC Mobility provides the only revolutionary voice-activated service on the Island, over the most extensive digital coverage Island wide, and partners with an established, dedicated Island wide dealer network to cater to the Island's mobile communications needs. << - Eric -
