conVISUAL Presents Trailblazing MMS Applications at the CeBIT Trade Fair

Oberhausen, Germany (ots) - The leading Visual Messaging Service Provider, conVISUAL, will present trailblazing MMS applications to the visitors at this year's CeBIT in Hanover: Video and Comic Messaging, MMS Gateway Services and integral solutions for the mobile mass market in the field of smart messaging.

At the largest telecommunications trade fair - with over 6,500 exhibitors - running from March 12-19 in Hanover, Germany, conVISUAL will present MMS applications and Smart Messaging solutions which will show the way forward for the coming mobile communications generation. As an experienced and successful provider of visual messaging services, conVISUAL is already enabling its customers today to profit from mobile multimedia services.

The main focus will be on MMS Channels, MMS Creation Centre, and Comic Messaging applications. The MMS Gateway will round off the service portfolio. With this range of services, conVISUAL is orienting itself to mobile communication network operators and all service providers who want to reach the MMS mass market with innovative and user-based services.

Using the MMS Channels, the mobile subscriber can, for instance, access the latest news or witty comics individually or register a subscription to receive them regularly on his mobile phone.

The MMS Creation Centre is the perfect tool for creating and sending multimedia messages personally via a web-based user interface. With video messaging, the MMS Creation Centre offers a unique feature: full video functionality, including sound for video-capable mobile phones.

Comic Messaging converts simple text messages into funny comic messages. Simply create an SMS text message with a recipient's number, send it to a short code number and the recipient receives a visual surprise on his MMS display. The service is fully compatible with smart messaging devices. In this case, the comic is sent as a picture message. Comic Messaging is also provided by conVISUAL in the context of the "Mobile Corner" integral service. The "Mobile Corner" also includes logos, image messages and ring tones with an extensive content portfolio that is adapted perfectly to the core target group of young people: Constantly updated chart hits and world-famous characters like South Park, Garfield and Snufflebears.

The MMS Gateway of conVISUAL provides the MMS distribution. Customers can use the MMS Gateway Services from the messaging specialist conVISUAL to send their multimedia messages securely and reliably to all German networks, and so can embark today into the exciting world of MMS with their very own services.

conVISUAL will present its multimedia messaging solutions from March 12-19, 2003, in Hall 12, Stand B49 at the CeBIT trade fair in Hanover, Germany.
