T-Mobile Enables 3G Video Roaming

Europe : As the first mobile operator in Hungary, T-Mobile started its customer test on the company’s integrated 3G network in Budapest in June. Within hardly more than two weeks upon starting the test, the largest Hungarian mobile operator also offers the possibility for participants to use video telephony in several foreign networks. Therefore participants to the 3G test may also keep in touch in video format, based on the frame of the well-known roaming scheme.

T-Mobile currently has 3G roaming agreements with eight foreign mobile operators and the video telephone service is available in several networks. T-Mobile’s 3G network - built together with Ericsson - is available in numerous districts of Pest and Buda and customers can expect the network to be rolled out - according to the planned time schedule - to the majority of Budapest by the end of the year.
