info2cell, the Middle East's pioneering mobile information services provider, has welcomed the launch of WAP mobile Internet access services in the UAE by Etisalat, the Emirates' telecommunications provider. "Etisalat has launched WAP with a full-service offering, drawing on content provided by info2cell's rich information services. We have worked with Etisalat long and hard as they achieved the excellent information access that the new service offers on launch, and we congratulate Etisalat on this key achievement," said info2cell CEO Bashar Dahabra.

info2cell's mobile information services offering consists of 200 categories of information available in Web, PDA (personal digital assistant) and WAP formats. The info2cell services are available to Etisalat WAP customers from today.

Configuring today's WAP-enabled GSM mobile telephones to get WAP access is made simpler through comprehensive instructions that have been available to WAP-enabled handset users for some months on info2cell's web site at www.Info2cell. "Get enabled, get mobile and get connected," said Dahabra. "There's a world of mobile information waiting, and we're adding more services and more value to WAP users every day. Etisalat's market-leading announcement has opened the floodgates of the mobile information revolution in the Middle East
