Pat Phelan dropped me an email today announcing some important cool news from MaxRoam, the worldwide mobile operator with “no-boundaries”.

· Full LIVE billing
· Local number list expanded, reductions on cost on local numbers
· Free call forwarding of your MAXroam numbers- zero cost roaming
· Send global SMS from your MAXroam account for only 5c
· Sales are 120% over targets for first Qtr.
· 5 new global carriers interconnected
· Connectivity running at 81% for QTR
· Full customer service hub opened
· Large upgrades planned for next two Qtr’s
· Appointment of Mr Christopher Kennedy as platform manager.
· Alliance with Global roaming, new group has 80,000 subscribers

It’s pretty clear that business is growing well and Pat and his team are really working hard to finally eliminate the high roaming costs that everyone faces when traveling worldwide.

Just logged in today and found the new features already available. I love the 5 cents SMS to any mobile phone worldwide. Just sent one to my mobile and it arrived immediately. I would only recommend to enable users to override the CLI, even if I know for sure that it’s not always available. What about a “you name” field that can be added at the end of the message automatically?

With this rate of new features, those guys are building the basis for being acquired by a big “G”iant…

Pat, keep up the good work!
