18 Aug 09 MobiPoke for iPhones Released
For people who are familiar with the “Poke” applications on Facebook, don’t be surprised if you finally get to see it available on the iPhone. Halcyon Mobile has made all of this possible with MobiPoke, a messaging feature which iPhone owners can use to send and receive messages.
MobiPoke is designed to be at the base of the mobile messaging systems hierarchy and to be used as a “conversation starter”. However, the app can also be used as an independent messaging system on its own for longer “mPoke conversations” which may eventually escalate into a higher customized level of communication like an SMS, instant message or phone call.
MobiPoke is now available in two versions at the AppStore: a Lite and a Pro version. MobiPoke Lite is the free ad supported version of mobiPoke Pro which is ad-free while the mobiPoke Pro contains more actions. The MobiPoke App is priced at $2.99.

And for mobile providers, they only intend to provide more as they conceptualize client-enticing mobile plans that will certainly be awaited by consumers in the market today.
