The new service, which is part of Info2cell.com's ongoing commitment to provide its customers with more value added services, offers its members free mobile wallpapers, ring tones, games and other SMS/MMS based services upon signing up.

Initially being launched in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), Alwanclub.com will soon be offered in Jordan and other key areas in the Middle East region within the next three months.

Alwanclub.com is Info2cell.com's new web based portal that allows its members to see new product/service offerings online before choosing which item to download on their phone. The new service complements Info2cell.com's Alwan platform that was launched in 2003 to provide subscribers with information and items such as new ring tones, wallpapers and java based games.

Bashar Al Dahabra, founder and CEO of Info2cell.com said, "Info2cell.com continues to provide its subscribers with high quality value added services while consolidating our presence in prime areas in the MENA region. New services like Alwanclub.com are examples of Info2cell.com's initiative to bring mobile services to a whole new level of innovation and convenience to a market that is constantly growing each year."

According to a recent Madar Research report, the KSA's mobile phone penetration rate exceeded the 100% mark in 2007, rising a remarkable 117.15% over the previous year. Further, the total mobile phone subscriptions for 2007 reached 28.4 million for a robust 44.16% year-on-year growth, underlining the major potential for Info2cell.com's services in this market.

Info2cell.com is a leading provider of mobile applications and content in the highly competitive Middle East and North African markets. The content provider offers advanced mobile messaging technology to deliver SMS, MMS, WAP, IVR, video, ring-tones, picture messaging, animations and Java games to mobile devices.
