Oskar launches Mobile E-mailand reduces its GPRS rates
As from today, Oskar’s customers can access their email accounts directly from their mobile phones. The mobile provider has launched the Mobile E-mail service while substantially reducing its rates for GPRS based Internet access. Mobile E-mail allows users to read and compose e-mail messages via Oskar’s WAP directly from their mobile phones without having to use a PC. What makes Oskar’s Mobile E-mail service different from other similar services is the possibility for users to access their existing e-mail accounts. Customers can easily access their email accounts set up on Seznam or Atlas free-mail servers as well as their corporate e-mail accounts.

Setting up a handset for Oskar’s Mobile Email service will be no difficult task for Oskar’s customers. The operator has introduced its Easy Set-up service, which enables GPRS-based WAP access to be set up via a “smart SMS“ delivered to the customer’s phone. This “binary SMS“ can be requested also for other services, such as MMS.
At the same time, Oskar reduced its rates for GPRS-based Internet access. In case of the Basic tariff, the rate per 1 kB has been reduced from 0.49 Kc to 0.06 Kc (VAT included). In case of the Standard tariff, the free data allowance has been increased from 1 MB to 5.12 MB. “Our GPRS rates are very convenient especially for people who want to pay only for what they download instead of committing to high monthly fees,“ says Chris Robbins, Director Pricing at Oskar.
