Turkcell, Nokia, HP To Offer 'Visual Radio' In Turkey
EFY News Network: Turkey-based GSM operator Turkcell has signed an agreement with Nokia and HP to bring 'Visual Radio' to Turkey. Developed by Nokia and offered by HP, Visual Radio adds a new dimension to FM radio with interactive content and services for mobile listeners. Visual Radio allows listeners to tune in to local FM radio via their mobile phones while simultaneously receiving interactive information and graphics that are synchronised with the broadcast.
Turkcell will be the first mobile phone operator in Turkey to give its customers the chance to download content related to the FM radio broadcast, get detailed information regarding the songs and even participate in radio quizzes. Visual Radio will also allow Turkcell users to create a personalised archive on their mobile phones.
Turkcell demonstrated the Visual Radio service in CeBIT Bilisim Eurasia in Istanbul last fall. The service will be available in 2006
