Page 2 of 2 Bebo has brokered an exclusive deal with Orange to offer access to a mobile version of the Bebo service. The first country to receive that service will be the UK, which will see it launched mid-year, but it will be restricted to customers of Orange's British network.

Officials said that the service will be rolled out in other locations over time, but didn't provide details. Orange has exclusive rights to offer Bebo access via mobiles for an unspecified period. "With Bebo mobile, the phone is moving from a one-to-one communication device to a complete social networking tool, enabling people to engage in conversations, discover new interests and express themselves in a completely new way," Orange CEO Sanjiv Ahuja said.
Pricing for the service wasn't announced, but Orange plans to offer a bundle which will include unlimited access to the service, as well as special mobile phone bundles with pre-paid Bebo credit. |
