O2, the provider of premium mobile data devices in Asia Pacific, announced that their latest PDA-phone, the Xda Atom Exec, will operate on a completely Arabised platform.
This is a new move in O2’s ongoing partnership with Informobility, the Middle East-based provider of mobile and wireless products, services and solutions. The Xda Atom Exec will be the first in O2’s range of products to run on a fully Arabised platform.
Manoj Bhatia, CEO, Unitec, O2’s appointed distributor in the Bahrain, said, “The market response to the Arabic overlay bundled with the Xda Atom and Xda Atom Pure has been encouraging. Since then, we have had a lot of requests from customers for products by O2 that run on a fully Arabised platform. The market spoke and O2 listened. Xda Atom Exec will operate on a completely Arabised platform and customers can expect future mobile data devices to be ideal for the Bahrain market.”
Customers of the Xda Atom Exec can enjoy full Arabic text and layout support across all features. This includes synchronisation with Microsoft Office and Outlook, as well as full support for Internet Explorer, MSN chat, and SMS/MMS.
The device comes with a suite of Arabic-centric applications like Pocket Quran and Prayer Times. The former, a popular request by customers, offers various zoom and audio options for quick chapter reference; while the latter is an enhanced version of what was previously offered on the Xda Atom.
