Honest 836 Report post Posted June 15, 2008 Netcore offers e-mail services to ordinary mobile phones 15 Jun, 2008, 1140 hrs IST, PTI Netcore Solutions, a provider of products and services in the messaging and mobile space, plans to provide e-mail services to ordinary mobile phones without Global Positioning Radio System (GPRS), a top company official said. "Presently, it is possible to send and receive e-mails only through Blackberry or else one has to activate GPRS. With our product, it would now be possible for users of ordinary mobile phones to reply, forward and create new e-mails," Netcore Solutions' Chief Executie Officer, Abhijit Saxena, said. The service would be available for a yearly subscription ranging from around Rs 250 to Rs 1,000," Saxena said. "However, the service is presently available to gmail users. We are now exploring possibilities of extending it to other ids such as Yahoo, Rediff and others," he said. The amount to be paid by the user would depend on the usage of e-mails, he said. Explaining the working of the offering, Saxena said that the technology used would convert an e-mail to a sms and send it to the customer. "If the e-mail id is an office id, then we would integrate the office server with our server. If it is a personal id, then we would integrate it with the personal id," he said. Once the integration was achieved, any e-mail that comes would hit the company's server and it would get converted to an sms of 480 characters and despatched.

Honest 836 Report post Posted June 15, 2008 But my dear friend, still this simple service will be beneficial for those who have ordinary handsets without GPRS service. And this will be beneficial to those also who do not want to engage in technicalities of GPRS. Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honest 836 Report post Posted June 15, 2008 ^^^ Sadik Ji, actually our ministries are postponing the every latest technology to be implemented in India. Whether it be 3g, Evdo or any thing else. Yes they are ripping consumers, I totally agree with you. But about this service, it will be helpful for those who cannot afford high end mobiles. Sms can be received on the phones available @ Rs.500/- also. But GPRS, Evdo, 3g etc. is only available in high end mobiles and many consumers don't know how to use Gprs even. As per the technology availability in India as of today, we can't imagine more then this. We can expect better only after the availability of 3g in India. Regards.
