With its entry in the Philippines, Dopod International would offer sophisticated and innovative converged solutions to the Filipino consumers. Their new phones would be at par with the best designs and trends prevalent internationally, and will be distributed locally by SIS Technologies (Philippines).

"We are thrilled to be a part of the Philippine telecommunications market – one of the most dynamic in the world," said Jack Tong, CEO, Dopod International Corp.

"Since its inception in 2002, Dopod International Corp., has been totally committed to providing the ultimate in digital connectivity to its customers. The launch of Dopod International here in the Philippines represents the start of a new and exciting chapter in the Philippine telecommunications landscape. Our range of Windows Mobile devices namely the 838Pro, D810, and the M700, will allow Filipino business leaders to manage their business communications while being on the move and still enjoy and experience true mobility," he further added.

In just two years, Dopod International Corp. has become Asia’s fastest growing mobile communications company largely due to its successful partnerships with two world class industry leaders, High Tech Computer (HTC) and Microsoft.

HTC is the world’s leading manufacturer of Smartphones and Pocket PCs and currently manufactures around 80 percent of the mobile phones running on the Windows Operating Systems. Today, HTC’s client list includes many of the prominent players in the electronic-device industry.

Microsoft’s robust Windows Mobile 5.0 Operating System provides the ultimate unified environment for phone applications for Dopod International. Its enhanced platform flexibility allows greater scope to customize devices and solutions. The platform also includes updated Microsoft Office software and persistent memory storage for more efficient data management, and a powerful multimedia experience with Windows Media Player 10 Mobile and support for hard drives.

According to Antonio Javier, managing director, Microsoft Philippines, more and more Filipinos are moving towards living the digital lifestyle and there is now an increased demand for mobile devices. "We are very pleased that Dopod International is making available all these new devices in the Philippines. Microsoft is committed to delivering products and services that increase people’s productivity in the home, office, and even when they’re on the go. Dopod International’s mobile devices which run on the Windows Mobile platform will provide the efficiency needed in today’s fast-paced world."
