Using Web, WAP And SMS for download
Already today services exist on the Internet where
users can create melodies, and view icons and
pictures, subscribe to entertainment and
informations services. These may develop further
in the future to support access via PC over the
Internet, from the phone using WAP and even with
an SMS request interface.
The diagram shows a model over the possibilities with Enhanced Messaging Service:
- When the Operator/Service provider enables EMS in the network, users will enjoy adding life to
messages with sounds, melodies, pictures and formatted text.
- New ranges of Content/Application aggregators on the operator network or the Internet can pro-
vide EMS contents and services to the users over SMS.
- Content Creators/providers can see a new demand for creative contents. Also, promotional activi-
ties from movie companies, record labels etc can provide ring signals, movie snapshots etc.
The added value in SMS messaging will create new revenue which can be shared between the net-
work operators, the application aggregators and the content providers.
