Bangkok, Thailand - Nokia and AIS today announced their collaboration
to offer the Nokia Messaging push-email service for AIS subscribers.
The deal makes AIS the first operator in Thailand to offer Nokia
Messaging, which supports all leading consumer email solutions, such
as Ovi Mail, Gmail, Windows Live Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail as well as
local email service providers.

"Services like Nokia Messaging contribute to easier mobile living for
our customers, and we're happy to be the first to deliver this
service in Thailand. We believe our customers will find this service
appealing, both in terms of user-friendliness and price," says Mr.
Somchai Lertsutthiwong, Executive Vice President - Marketing, AIS.

"Nokia wants to make mobile email available for as many people as
possible, and the agreement with AIS is an important milestone. With
Nokia Messaging, we meet people's need for access to email whenever
they want and wherever they want it," says Mr. Shumit Kapoor, General
Manager, Nokia (Thailand) Ltd.

Nokia Messaging is an easy to set-up and easy to use push email
service which allows the user to mobilize up to ten personal email
accounts on one device. After activating his accounts through a
simple set-up process, the user can read, send, smart forward, reply
to emails, download, read and attach files directly on their mobile
phone. Push email technology ensures fast delivery of email to the
mobile phone as soon as the email arrives on the email server.

To make Nokia Messaging more appealing to consumers, AIS also
introduced two new data packages. One is "Nokia Messaging Bt 199"
which allows AIS consumers to use Nokia Messaging up to 5MB per month
for as low as Bt 199 per Month. The other is "Nokia Messaging Bt 399
Unlimited" offering unlimited use of Nokia Messaging.

Also launched commercially today are two new Nokia Eseries devices -
Nokia E52 and Nokia E63 - which support Nokia Messaging. Nokia
Messaging also comes out of the box with the Nokia E75 and is
supported on more than 20 Nokia Symbian devices, including the Nokia
N97, and other popular devices such as the Nokia E71 and Nokia N95
8GB.
