This agreement signifies huge growth potential for Miyowa's active user base. Not only will Miyowa cater for the large IM customer base that 3 UK and ROI currently has, but Miyowa expects to grow this number considerably in 2009.

Miyowa's advertising-ready MoveMessenger™ was selected by 3 UK and ROI for a number of factors including its proven history, porting ability - with all of 3's handsets being compatible, quality of service and great support service. The partnership brings Miyowa's total number of worldwide operator deployments to 22.

3's Director of Product Management Fergal Walker said: "IM has been incredibly popular with our customers since we first made it mobile in 2006. Since then we have constantly looked at ways to improve the service by matching the experience to that on the PC. Miyowa's MIM service will enable us to offer our customers function-rich and PC-like, mobile messaging which will only serve to further enhance the user experience."

Pascal Lorne, founder and CEO, of Miyowa said, "This latest deployment by the 3 Group is yet another important milestone for Miyowa. Proven, reliable and trusted, our MIM technology is today the industry-leading solution for mobile operators. We are delighted to have announced another deployment within the 3 Group."
