Qatar Bank unveils mobile app

Qatar National Bank has released a mobile banking application for BlackBerry users, reports AME Info.

The mobile banking application is an extension of the bank's eazylife suite of electronic banking services.

Users can review their accounts, credit cards and transaction activity as well as transferring money and paying for utility bills.

Motorola is in talks with all Indian telecom service providers to roll out iSIM; a small device that attaches to a SIM card enabling the user to access three other numbers on the same handset, states Business Standard.

Motorola India country head, Subhendu Mohanty, adds: “iSIM is based on a flexible wafer that can be attached to the subscriber's original SIM providing additional services that can be controlled via a SIM tool kit, allowing third-party developers to build applications and services.”

Motorola's iSIM platform can also be used to build applications such as mobile commerce for banking, payment and near field communications and call control.
