Link: China Mobile launches new IM: Free SMS
Shanghailist.com has all the gossip:
For a limited time, China Mobile (all you 134-139, 158, 159 people) is offering free SMS service with just one string attached: download its new instant messenger client, 飞信/Feixin/Fetion (Chinese for ‘flymailâ€Â). The IM, at least in its current incarnation is nothing to crow about, but it does have one ass kicking feature you won’t find in MSN, Gtalk or QQ: Free SMS within the China Mobile network, PC to mobile, mobile to PC, and of course mobile to mobile.
An interesting strategy, I’m sure it will be very popular.
