[Any chance Celtel could demonstrate their SMS service] Story by NATION Correspondent Publication Date: 11/27/2007 Celtel Kenya has signed an SMS interconnection agreement with Telkom Kenya that allows the latter’s wireless customers to access the former’s network via a short message service. Previously, the interconnection agreement covered voice calls only. Further, Celtel said it would extend interconnection to the Internet service providers (ISPs) to use Celtel’s platform for the Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP). “We are proud to open our platform with Telkom and the ISPs as we seek to extend the benefits of the widest coverage to all Kenyans,” said Celtel corporate and regulatory affairs manager, Ms Clare Ruto. Last week, Celtel announced the extension of the One Network to six more African countries bringing the total to 12. <http://www.nationmedia.com/dailynation/nmgcontententry.asp?category_id=3&newsid=111400> ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
