01 June, 2006
Fiji and Waterloo, Canada - 1 June 2006 - VodaFone Fiji and Research In Motion (RIM) (Nasdaq: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today introduced BlackBerry® for the first time in Fiji.
"BlackBerry is trusted by mobile professionals and executives worldwide for its secure 'push'-based architecture," said Mr. Lionel Yee, Chairman of Vodafone Fiji Limited. "We are very excited to introduce BlackBerry to Fiji with RIM. Operating on Vodafone Fiji's nationwide GPRS network, our customers will be able to enjoy the unrivalled BlackBerry experience with integrated voice and data applications."
"We are pleased to be working with Vodafone Fiji to offer BlackBerry in Fiji," said Norm Lo, Vice President, Asia Pacific at Research In Motion. "BlackBerry is a popular and proven solution that continues to gain momentum around the world as businesses, government organisations and mobile professionals seek connectivity and productivity."
Operating on Vodafone Fiji's GPRS network, the BlackBerry 7290TM, BlackBerry 7230TM and the BlackBerry 7100vTM all feature an easy-to-navigate user interface, a large display supporting over 65,000 colors, quad-band and Bluetooth® support and provide "always on" support for email, phone, text messaging, Internet, organizer and corporate data applications. The BlackBerry 7100v features SureTypeTM, a new and innovative keyboard technology from RIM that successfully converges a phone keypad and a QWERTY keyboard to fit within the size constraints of a traditional mobile phone design.
For corporate customers, BlackBerry Enterprise ServerTM tightly integrates with Microsoft® Exchange, Novell GroupWiseTM and IBM Lotus® Domino® and works with existing enterprise systems to enable secure, push-based, wireless access to e-mail and other corporate data.
For individuals and smaller businesses, BlackBerry Internet ServiceTM allows users to access up to ten corporate and personal email accounts (including Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Domino and most popular ISP email accounts) from a single device.
