Mobilink Infinity Arrives: Initial Offering In Karachi

Published by Babar Bhatti on July 2, 2008 under Broadband Internet, Infrastructure, Wimax, Wireless

The soft launch announcement about Mobilink Infinity, Mobilink’s Internet and telephony service, is out. This is another milestone for WiMax in Pakistan. Unlimited data usage and voice for Rs. 1200 at 1 Mbps! For the residents of Karachi these are good introductory rates, valid till October 2008. There’s the initial cost of Rs.16K for CPE etc.

Full information and details about this offer is not available so its hard to say if it is just a teaser offer or will it be around for a while. From a marketing point of view it seems that the official media campaing and website were not launched first. Perhaps Mobilink has learned a thing from Wateen’s product launch mistakes. According to the announcement, “Mobilink Infinity is now an operational business arm of Mobilink. Mobilink Infinity will provide high speed and reliable internet connectivity along with access to a landline through VoIP.” Thanks to Uzair for posting the info on TGP!
