T-Mobil AG, the wireless service unit of Germany's incumbent operator, Deutsche Telekom AG, said Friday that it will start offering multimedia messaging service (MMS) from today.
T-Mobil will become one of the first operators outside of Japan to offer the high-tech evolution of the phenomenally popular short message service (SMS) technology, which has so far accounted for the build up of data service revenue generated by GSM network operators. T-Mobile will not charge for MMS messages themselves for the first month of the service, after which it will charge 0.39 euros ($0.38) for a 30KB message (which might contain an audio message) or 0.99 euros ($0.98) for a 100KB message, which might contain a video file.
