Mgage Systems launches new mobile community application - Mobile Swapper

Mgage Systems, a leading provider of mobile community applications for service providers, today announced the availability of the Mgage Mobile Swapper. The Mobile Swapper enables users to locate, create, share and access various content like ring tones and icons from a convenient and easy-to-use interface. The announcement was made at CommunicAsia 2001 in Singapore, where the Mobile Swapper was also demonstrated in a live environment in Wap Forums booth (# 5D3-01).

Mgage Mobile Swapper is a new and exciting mobile community application based on an idea similar to the peer-to-peer philosophy, e.g. Napster, Bearshare and Gnutella. Mobile Swapper enables users to locate, create, share and access various content like ring tones and icons from a convenient and easy-to-use web and Wap interface. It builds upon Nokias popular Smart Messaging and combines it with an Internet community concept, taking these services to a completely new dimension.

Already today, ring tones and icons are one of the prime revenue sources for mobile operators and service providers. Mobile Swapper takes this to another level and provides a playground for both mobile users and service providers, offering new business models with increased end-user commitment and engagement. Mgage Systems is dedicated to bring new and innovative mobile community applications to the market and increase mobile operators and service providers competitiveness, says Mgage Systems CEO Ben Manell.

Today Mgage Systems offers a wide range of mobile messaging and community applications to mobile operators and service providers that want to offer their customers new high value services. The company is actively working with end-user groups, mobile operators and device and infrastructure vendors, committed to making the best mobile messaging applications that satisfy the needs of the end users. Mgage Systems previous agreement and successful commercial launch of the Mobile Chat with D2 Vodafone, a leading mobile operator in Europe, proves that Mgage Systems state-of-the-art applications are ready for a demanding mass market.

Mgage Systems Mobile Swapper is the first step towards a wide range of mobile community application offerings. Mobile Internet will not only make the current Internet available from mobile terminals, but also create a whole new set of community services that will be available anywhere, anytime for any users.

Mgage Systems provides mobile operators and service providers in Europe with innovative mobile messaging applications. The company was founded in February 2000 backed up by strong international investors. Today Mgage Systems employs 35 people in Stockholm and Gothenburg. The vision is to be a leading provider of mobile messaging applications - King of Mobile Messaging. For more information: http://www.mgage.com
