The new telecom operator in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is set to offer Nokia Intellisync Wireless Email to its consumer and business customers in summer 2007.

The service is aimed at providing secure, easy-to-set-up mobile email and PIM (personal information management) functionalities for users ranging from individuals to businesses.

du is the UAE's second national telecommunications provider and started its mobile service in February 2007. To distinguish itself in a well-saturated mobile market like the UAE, du has committed to deliver highly innovative and user-friendly services to its customers.

According to the Telecommunications Authority (TRA), the mobile penetration rate in UAE is approximately eight times higher than the Internet subscriber rate. "Given the increasing worldwide acceptance of mobile email, we firmly believe that this service for UAE is tremendously important," says Scott Cooper, senior vice president, Mobility Solutions Unit, Enterprise Solutions, Nokia.
