No Java required

While it is great to see Gmail continuing to improve its mobile mail service - and its recognition of the growth of consumer email - there are some drawbacks to its updated service. Mainly, Google continues to rely on Java, which (as even they admit) can only work on Java enabled handsets. Relying on Java not only limits the handset models on which the service is available, Java apps also requires alot of memory, and not all handsets have the amount needed - especially if you want to also have photos, music, videos, etc. on your handsets.

Momail has a better solution! As we work on the native platforms of the majority of handsets in the market today, no Java, Symbian, Android, etc. is required. And, for all the mobile Gmail users - Momail supports Gmail - as well as Yahoo!, Hotmail, and your favorite ISP and webmail services. Just set it up under "Email Accounts" within your Momail account.

And... just in time for Christmas, Momail works on upcoming "iPhone killers" - thus increasing the number of supported handsets to 1200 different models.

Momail for the budget-conscience

With the uncertain market environment, consumers are beginning to rein back spending on utilities, where possible, including mobile phone plans. In addition, they are postponing new purchases, and handset manufacturers are cutting their outlooks for 2009. However, it's not all bad news, as it is still possible to take advantage of new developments in mobile technology while saving money.

First, check with your mobile company about possible flat rate data plans. Most operators offer them, but you need to do a little research to find the plan best for you.

Second, "upgrade" your handset to have smartphone-like features with services like Momail. Momail is smart mobile email for consumers - free to use, minimizes the data cost of incoming data, and works on the large majority of handsets in the market today.

Third, leverage other cost-saving measures, like calling with services such Jajah which leverage VoIP to minimized long distance bills. It's super easy to use with Momail as well - just go to "On Demand" services in your Momail account to sign up.

Momail and Jajah cooperate on innovative calling option

As Momail's patented technology optimizes data in your mobile emails to minimize the data costs, it was an obvious choice to partner with Jajah for inexpensive international calling via VoIP. Not only does this partnership provide a great service for our customers, but it also proves the flexibility of the Momail messaging platform. To activate Jajah on Momail:

1. As a Momail user, go to Momail "On Demand" in your Momail account

2. Register your Jajah account with Momail (or sign up for Jajah if you are not already a customer)

3. To call, simply send a mail to Jajah (or Jajah@momail.com) with the phone number of your contact from your handset.

4. In seconds, you will receive a call from Jajah connecting your call

5. Take advantage of the cost savings and talk for as long as you'd like!
