Singapore, Singapore, June 22, 2006 -- Vidiator(R), a leading provider of mobile multimedia solutions, announced that it has been selected by Korea's ONSE Telecom to provide its mobile video ASP platform for ONSE's mobile content portal, So1, with mobile video content services. The ASP platform is based on Vidiator's Xenon(TM) product suite and will include VOD (video on demand), live streaming of audio and video, video and audio ringtones, and wallpapers.
