UNITED KINGDOM -- The Bulletin Mail service is now available to the UK’s Vodafone subscribers. A partnership between Bulletin Wireless and MobileStreams means the UK's mobile customers can now get email on their Vodafone mobiles and Bulletin Wireless will continue to develop consumer products for the growing UK market.

Bulletin Wireless announced that Mobilestreams would take over the provisioning and customer service for users of the Bulletin Wireless Email service available on the Vodafone Network in the United Kingdom. Simon Lanario Bulletin Wireless’s UK and European operations director said "This is a great partnership for both companies, Mobilestreams have been offering ring tones picture messaging and logo's as part of their vast suite of products to consumers and enterprises alike. By teaming up Mobilestreams Bulletin Wireless will be able to offer other products to our customer base as well as allowing Mobilestreams the opportunity to offer Bulletin Wireless products to their customer base alike.

Bulletin Wireless will still continue with its UK operations but the core focus will be at the carrier and service provider level.

“We have some very exciting products in the pipeline that will be of great benefit for Mobile Operators and service providers allowing them to increase ARPU and maintain retention”, Lanario said. “This does not mean we will no longer be developing consumer products in the future, after all the entire consumer market is huge both here and internationally. For a long time we have felt that the provisioning of users and customer service issues should be directed towards the Internet, by partnering with Mobilestreams we have been able to do this seamlessly and effectively whilst offering the consumer a even grater choice of services.”
