Today (7 March 2012), Nashua Mobile<\/a> has launched a new data service called Xtreme data for Nokia<\/a> phones that offers users unlimited usage on the MTN and Vodacom networks for R59 per month.<\/p>\n

“Xtreme Data allows you to make the most of the internet on your smartphone with access to Email, Browsing, Internet, Social Networking and Instant Messaging at a fixed cost of only R59 per month,” Nashua Mobile said.<\/p>\n

The service allows for up to a maximum of 512kbps broadband Internet access.\u00a0 It will offer shaped bandwidth which involves the prioritising of Internet traffic for web browsing, email, social networking and instant messaging.<\/p>\n

“Certain streaming protocols will be blocked on the Xtreme Data network, for example YouTube<\/a>,” said Nashua Mobile.<\/p>\n

Subscribers will see increased shaping and\/or throttling after using more than 100MB of data per month and can expect even more aggressive shaping\/throttling after using 160MB in a month.<\/p>\n

This new Nokia-specific smartphone data bundle is exclusive to Nashua Mobile, the service provider said, even though the service runs on the Vodacom and\u00a0MTN<\/a> networks. The service provider uses commercial APNs from the network operators to offer its service.<\/p>\n

Xtreme Data is initially available for the Nokia<\/a> X2-01 and Nokia C3 mobile phones and the Nokia N8, Nokia E5 and Nokia E7 smartphones.<\/p>\n
