mBlox, which claims to be the world's largest mobile transaction network, has revealed that is service is being used to support the recently launched Skype SMS service that enable users of the Skype softphone to send text messages to mobile phones anywhere in the world.
Skype SMS was a new feature on version 2.5 of its Windows Softphone released in May, and version 1.4 of the Mac OS X softphone, also released in May. Message delivery is available in nearly 200 countries worldwide.
According to Michael Jackson, director, paid products, Skype: "mBlox's network reaches out to our customers worldwide and their DirectPlus MT SMS product set ticked all the boxes for us. Load tests and measurements showed that it could meet the demanding needs of our users. Being able to measure message-delivery successes and failures is also essential and mBlox's service gives us visibility into the status of our mobile transaction. At this point online Skype users can send SMS messages to mobile, but we are looking to extend this feature."
