Video: ShakeSMS, a feature I want to see in every mobile device

Symbian Freak brings us a video demonstration of ShakeSMS, a new application that utilizes the accelerometer inside Nokia’s Nseries lineup to bring up your text messages in one easy motion.
Scenario: You get an sms. Take your phone out of your pocket (remember it is still locked), shake it, it brings up the text message you just received. Shake it again, phone goes back to the home screen and locks the keys. It will be interesting to see how it reacts if you have your device in your pocket, that is the only thing that worries me.

Kirusa Announces Next Generation "International Voice SMS Access Node" for Mobile Carriers Worldwide

CommunicAsia -- Kirusa, the leading developer of value added mobile services, today announced the launch of its International Voice SMS Access Node product for mobile carriers worldwide. This next generation product enables all subscribers of a carrier to send Voice SMS messages in a cost effective manner to friends, family, and colleagues in other countries.

Kirusa's International Voice SMS Access Node allows mobile carriers to offer the seamless, integrated International Voice SMS experience to their mobile subscribers, enabling them to send Voice SMS messages to any mobile user around the globe, even in the countries where mobile carriers have not yet launched the Voice SMS service. The Kirusa Voice SMS Access Node allows subscribers to send Voice SMS messages to more than one billion mobile subscribers across the globe today, with further expansion expected shortly.

For subscribers of mobile carriers, the convenience of Voice SMS is now extended to all international recipients. The Kirusa Voice SMS Access Node connects operators globally.
Recipients can retrieve their messages locally.

Mobile operators get high value and margin for international messages. The Kirusa Voice SMS Access Node provides the benefits of International Voice SMS messaging with no need for an existing deployment of Voice SMS in an operator's network or the need for a Voice SMS deployment from specific vendors. The end user experience is unchanged except for use of international addressing when composing a message.

Ewald Anderl, VP and CTO of Kirusa, said, "Mobile carriers and subscribers around the world can benefit from the International Voice SMS Access Node capability. For example, this value added service will enable consumers in Middle East to communicate with friends and family in South Asia in a cost effective manner. Business users in one continent can send voice messages to business associates in other continents, without regard to differences in time zones, and even if the recipients do not use voicemail. Kirusa is yet again using its world-class innovation to help people communicate."

Mr. Babar Ahmad, Head-Products and Services, Warid Telecom, Pakistan, said, "We are working with Kirusa to offer our subscribers an easy and economical way to reach out to their family and friends outside Pakistan with yet another service that perfectly complements their increasingly mobile business and personal communication needs."

Kirusa is committed to an open standards approach embracing multiple vendor inter-operability with other services and vendors (Email, Voice SMS, MMS), that will drive a broader global adoption of International Voice SMS.
