New Services to Simplify Mobile Net Access
Wireless operators will soon introduce a new service that allows mobile phone users to surf the Internet by phone as easily as on a computer. The service enables users to access the Internet directly, rather than having to go through a website programmed in the phone.

SK Telecom said Tuesday that it will launch the service next month. A company source explained that users of the new service will see websites that they designate, such as Chosun.com, open up in three to five seconds. Using wireless Internet phones with large displays and Internet software, users will easily be able to browse the web.

LG Telecom also plans to launch a service named OZ that will allow users to access various Internet contents on their mobile phones. KTF will provide a similar service from May.
