Ufone Joins BlackBerry Club In Pakistan

Published by Babar Bhatti on May 28, 2008 under Broadband Internet, GSM, Gadgets, Mobile Companies, Smart Phones, Telecommunications, Value Added Services

Since last month Ufone has started BlackBery service in Pakistan (see my previous post on this topic). Ufone had been working on it for a while and it must be a big achievement for them to make this milestone. So Mobilink is not the only one and Ufone rates are a tad better (monthly rates are Rs. 900 for individuals and Rs. 1350-1500 for business). What is Telenor waiting for?

BlackBerry is particularly valuable for mobile companies as it brings high arpu business accounts which are sticky … it is called Crackberry for a reason. I can’t tell you how many people I see walking around in office hallways with a BlackBerry in their hand. Yeah, it looks funny when you see others but seems perfectly fine when you are doing it!
