"Vocalis is delighted to be working with Ericsson in  Oslo  to
supply  this  major European mobile operator with  a  platform

partner  on  the  SpeechDAT project  with  which  Vocalis  was
involved,  to collect speech databases, including for  use  in
mobile phone applications.  However this is a new operator for
Vocalis to work with in an IN application and we are sure this
will  be the start of a fruitful working relationship for  all
parties."
