Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) will upgrade the access to Internet services offered through mobile terminals. Live video and sound will be some of the new features provided through 3G.
Ingvild Myhre, Managing Director of Telenor Mobile Communications, commented: “We have been waiting for this, and now we are looking forward to building the mobile network of the future. Our goal is to supply user-friendly services to the population. We are therefore preparing an aggressive, but realistic expansion plan.”
Telenor Mobile Communications has chosen an open content strategy for the mobile Internet, and will continuously be developing new products and services made available through UMTS.
A commercial launch of the network is planned to take place before the end of 2001.
