We are changing mobile market, says 3 managing director

The launch of mobile media network 3 has had a major impact on the Irish mobile phone market, according to 3 managing director Robert Finnegan.

“We’ve had a great year at 3 and we’re looking forward to an equally successful 2007,”said Mr Finnegan. “Not only have we brought better value to the Irish consumer and a new range of services, we have also shaken up a stale and uncompetitive market.

“The old networks are waking up to the fact that the market has changed and they can no longer take Irish consumers for granted. Not only have mobile users been ripped off on price they’ve been sold old 2G technology for a long time – we’re here to change that.

“In 2007 we will launch the X-Series in the Irish market, premium internet services at a flat-rate – simply the best you can get from your mobile.”
