BenQ smartphones to bundle Geodesic Information's Mundu in 2007

Geodesic Information Systems Ltd on January 08, 2007 has announced that it has entered into a co-operative relationship with BenQ to distribute Mundu for multiple BenQ smartphone models scheduled for release in 2007. As a result of this relationship, users of BenQ phones would be able to use Mundu for chatting with their friends across major public Instant Messaging networks, across languages and platforms. Mundu would also enable BenQ users to listen to thousands of radio stations directly from their phones.

"For today's youth across the world, mobile phones are becoming a fashion statement. We are constantly looking for ways to bring the digital lifestyles of our customers, right to their mobile phones", said Dr. Irwin Chen, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Mobile Communication Business Group (MCG) of BenQ. He added, "Mundu's product suite lets us provide a unique experience to our customers for applications they regularly use while on-the-go."

Kiran Kulkarni, Managing Director of the Company said "We are extremely excited about our association with BenQ and we are hopeful that this will help both of us to combine our strengths and reach out to a wider audience. BenQ's global reach in wireless handsets will help us expand the user base of Mundu, thus creating revenue opportunities for both companies."

The two companies will jointly promote the bundled products and have yet to announce the schedule for release. The application would be bundled on select models and would be available online for other models.
