You may recall the August 7th announcement that JAJAH and Mobivox had teamed up to provide a voice driven JAJAH service called JAJAH concierge. Today Mobivox announces their business model for allowing any company to deploy similar services on the Mobivox platform. Called MOBIVOX|PL, it’s a voice activated mobile services platform that lets users literally speak commands to the handset and have Mobivox’ sophisticated network handle executing those commands.
And what does this say about the industry? One more time… minutes are dead. Value-added services are the future.
