Comverse demonstrates 3G messaging service

WOODBURY, Spain-Comverse Network Systems demonstrated its third-generation-capable unified messaging service, including video messaging, over Nortel Network Corp.’s Universal Mobile Telecommunications System network at the UMTS Conference in Barcelona, Spain.

The demonstration allows users to compose, send and view video messages using a personal computer. Comverse said a unique feature of the system is the ability for the user to see the message instantly instead of having to download the entire file before viewing it.

In addition, the video messaging service allows users to listen to the audio portion of the message using a GSM handset via Comverse’s media transcoding functionality.
