    • I know Telenor had such plans too. On another note, after confining this service to only their own customers – Mobilink probably missed a large chunk of user base and largely missed the idea of online store that can rock local market in coming years.

      I am sure entrepreneurs are eyeing this closely…

      • Yes Telenor was working on it and had some understanding with a hand-set company also.

        Agreed, restricting to own customers is not a good idea. Let’s see how things unfold ahead…

  • The website is working fine….and there seems to be a lot of stuff there….looks like a brilliant first step!

  • 5000+ content? where? what a load of useless content !!! I am sure Telenor will be coming up with better content from develoeprs such as gameloft zmobile etzz

    Lame/useless stuff.

  • @Rem0te1: They have Angry Birds, YoNinja,PigRush, Hungry Shark, Youtube, Flickstr, Street Fighter, Need for Speed and a lot more….you should probably check it again…the content is pretty good…

    If Telenor had to do an app store they would have done it by now! :)

  • Great effort from Mobilink. There’s still room for improvement but I guess that will come with time.

  • Well done Mobilink. Its a start and Mobilink took the lead. Good stuff will show up as soon as these things gain more ground. Trend actually needs to be set, step wise, right now all the operators are bringing around the smartphone revolution – apps was the next step…
