Significant developments in recent years now make it possible for mobile subscribers to have a richer communications experience. The first development involves enhancements for sharing multimedia in mobile devices. Multiple studies on consumer behavior predict that mobile subscribers will exchange media in a voice call, given the opportunity. Phenomena such as blogging and social networking are proof that this desire to share media is more than a mere fad.
Separately, mobile operators worldwide have made significant investments in 3G spectrum and network infrastructure. UMTS and WLAN networks offer the exciting possibility that a voice conversation in progress can be enhanced immediately with multimedia elements such as live video, high resolution images, audio and video clips, documents and more. The number of UMTS subscribers is expected to grow rapidly from ~100 million currently to more than 884 million by 2011. These UMTS operators can set themselves apart with packet-based sharing services that will increase ARPU and subscriber capture rates while also reducing churn.
Aylus has developed revolutionary share services that will transform the way mobile subscribers communicate in emerging wireless networks.
