Black + White preparing for beta test and launch

A new mobile provider is getting ready to launch in the New Zealand market.

Black + White is an independent New Zealand business that will be be operating as a MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) on Vodafone’s network, accessed via the wholesale agreement signed by M2.

From Tony's blog we learn that Black + White and M2 will both use the mobile number prefix 02885 (+64 28 85).

I am told Black + White will provide an e-mail service powered by Microsoft Hosted Exchange 2007 matched with a range of Windows Mobile devices.

They are looking for participants in a beta programme which can be registered for at their website at www.bw.co.nz. The beta programme objective is to solicit feedback on all facets of the offering prior to launch. Nothing will be set in stone until the beta programme is completed.
