O2 can offer video service on existing data network
April 23, 2003
In a bid to dampen Three's video service launched in early March, O2
is to conduct a mobile video trial with its customers using its existing
mobile data network to help create a mobile video service planned for
launch later this year. The move by the British company is to demonstrate
that its existing network can offer video services without 3G technology.
O2 has selected 350 of its customers to take part in the trial that will
begin at the end of this month.
Dave McGlade, CEO O2 UK said: Mobile Video is a natural addition to the
range of services we already offer like Media Messaging and the O2 Games
Arcade and fully exploits the technology we have available today. We want
to develop a range of communications and entertainment services that our
customers really want and trials like this give us the opportunity to
listen to our customers and get crucial feedback."
O2's Mobile Video trial aims to encourage experimentation with its range
of services and will give trialists the opportunity to download or stream
video content free of charge during the six week period. This trial will
use some of the advanced UK mobile phone technology through the latest
mobile phones - the Nokia 7650, Nokia 3650 and the O2 xda.
During the six week Mobile Video trial period, O2 will showcase a range
of services including the ability to create and send your own video clips.
Using the built in camera of the Nokia 7650 and Nokia 3650, you can record
up to 10 seconds of video and send it to another video capable phone or
email address, using O2's existing Media Messaging service.
The trial will also offer the opportunity to browse, select and download
video clips via a special trial WAP portal. The content providers will
include Sky delivering regularly updated news, sport, weather and entertainment.
Once selected, the clip will be 'streamed' or downloaded on to the customers
mobile via the O2 mobile data network.
O2 is also leveraging its sponsorship of Arsenal football club and the
England Rugby team. Arsenal fans will be able to get exclusive Arsene
Wenger interviews and post match highlights whilst rugby followers will
have access to footage of England rugby internationals.
