Under the plan, Optus mobile and Internet customers will enjoy a truly convergent information and communications experience, benefiting from PBL content and MSN services combined with high speed access via Optus broadband and 3G. Through this alliance with ninemsn, Optus customers will receive communications services including e-mail, MSN Messenger, calendar and contacts. When combined with the new portal and a personalised browser, customers will have a level of integration between their PC and mobile phone not yet seen in Australia. The alliance will provide a foundation for the joint development of new content and the future delivery of communications services, such as phone to PC video calls and Voice over IP (VoIP)."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/wey-20050621-ninemsn.gif" /><br /><br />This is great news!
