Users have to download a Java-based email application to be able to use the Cingular’s service. Initially, starting Monday, it will be available for 5 Motorola Inc. mobile phone’s models and one from Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. Particular new phones will also get the software pre-installed.

There’s no monthly charge for Cingular Mobile Email, but users will need to subscribe to one of the company’s wireless Internet plans with a monthly allotment of data usage. Jim Ryan, a Cingular vice president, said a $5 monthly data plan should provide sufficient capacity to check one’s e-mail a few times daily.

Fetching e-mail on a cell phone has been possible for some time, generally by using a mobile Web browser or a downloadable third-party application. But the process is often cumbersome: Users need to click through multiple menus, type in Web addresses, sign in using a telephone keypad, and scroll about to read poorly formatted messages on a small screen.

The phishing email will appear that it comes directly from Skype, according to Maksym Schipka, a senior antivirus researcher at MessageLabs. It will arrive in the email with the following subject line and body text:

Say you’re in the subway, and there’s an ad with a URL and you have a phone but can’t go online. You just key in a number and when you next go online, you get an email delivering the information you want. Advertisers have a bridge between offline and online, it claims.

It costs one Euro to deliver an email doesn’t cost the consumer anything and it’s relatively cheap for advertisers. Allisblue assures us that while the advertiser knows a valid mail has been delivered, it doesn’t get your email, so you won’t be spammed in future. Ford and others are already experimenting with the technology.

Their technology is already patented in Europe, but still pending in the USA.
