AOL and Verizon join forces on mobile email service

30 September 2004

America Online and Verizon Wireless have launched AOL Mail on Verizon Wireless' Get It Now service.

AOL members can access the new service for just 99 cents a month, as part of the introductory offering.

AOL Mail is available in the Get It Now virtual store and gives AOL members complete, on-the-go access to their email.

"Instant messaging and email on wireless phones have grown quickly to become a mainstream trend in mobile communications because life doesn't stop at the desktop," Doug Gardner, executive director of AOL Mobile, commented.

"With mobile AOL Mail on Verizon Wireless' Get It Now service, AOL members will enjoy greater convenience without sacrificing the look and feel of AOL's classic email service."

"We are very pleased to offer our Get It Now customers the ability to access their AOL Mail from virtually anywhere," added Paul Palmieri, executive director of business development for Verizon Wireless. "With AOL-branded email available on some of our most popular phones, our Get It Now customers have another way to stay connected to friends and family."

AOL's partner, Tourmaline Networks, a leading supplier of wireless email, developed the AOL-branded email service available to Verizon Wireless Get It Now customers with select Get It Now-enabled wireless phones.
