BPL Mobile launches 32 K SIM card

Our Bureau

KOCHI: BPL Mobile has announced the launch of its new powerful 32K SIM card so as to provide the subscribers the facility to navigate through a host of unique and customised services.

The normal SIM card used at present had only limited memory and hence was not capable of performing advanced functions. The new SIM card is 32 K capacity against the present capacity of 8K and all value added services were included in the new SIM card, a press release issued here said.

From the new SIM card, the subscribers would now be able to access general services such as knowing reservation status of train tickets, city specific information like location of bank, ATM etc and personal services like storing address book and sending or receiving e-mails.

The new 32K SIM card can be used only in Phase II+ mobile phones. Presently BPL Mobile would be selling the new 32K cards from June 1 to all new postpaid connections in Kerala. The 32K SIM card would be offered to existing postpaid subscribers on an invitation basis, the release said. — Our Bureau
