| IXI Mobile joins forces with AT&T Wireless to launch OGO |
||
IXI Mobile and its IXI-Connect OS software have been selected by AT&T Wireless for Ogo, AT&T Wireless’ hip, new mobile messaging device. Ogo is the first and only device of its kind to provide simultaneous, unlimited instant messaging and email from the three leading portals – AOL, MSN, and Yahoo! – plus text messaging, all in a sleek, clamshell device. Ogo features IXI-Connect OS as its core software, and includes PMG® (Personal Mobile Gateway) technology for expandability, establishing a platform for future device deployment.
Leveraging the flexibility of the IXI-Connect OS platform, IXI was able to deliver the device, based on AT&T Wireless’ specifications, in a fraction of the time typically needed to develop a product of this kind. Andre Dahan, president of AT&T Wireless Mobile Multimedia Services commented: “We have been working very closely with IXI Mobile to bring Ogo to market, and it is a testament to their technology and professionalism that this has been achieved so quickly.” He went on to say that “going forward, PMG technology gives us the flexibility to expand our product offering with additional devices and services that appeal to our customers.” Ogo is based on IXI-Connect OS, a complete operating system solution optimized for feature phones and data-centric mobile devices. The IXI-Connect OS platform and tool suite enabled rapid development of the complete software solution, including advanced services such as instant messaging and multiple email clients – balancing the portals’ unique requirements. In addition, the OS allowed AT&T Wireless to control the product’s branding and tailor the user experience. The device’s PMG technology facilitates the seamless addition of future mobile companion devices. Amit Haller, CEO and co-founder of IXI Mobile commented: “AT&T Wireless has created a new and innovative category with mass consumer appeal and IXI was pleased to bring that vision to market. As well as being a mass-market introduction for IXI-Connect OS, this is another example of the continued excitement around PMG technology and PMG-enabled devices.” For more information about IXI, visit www.ixi.com For more information about the Ogo device, visit www.attwireless.com/ogo |
