Smart Mouth Mobile To Offer Unlimited International Calls Through New Barbados Nationwide WiFi
Written by Smart Mobile Wireless
Smart Mouth Mobile was pleased to see the announcement today from the Barbados Entrepreneurship Foundation(BEF) that the organization was committed to providing free internet access to everyone in the island nation including residents and visitors alike. Damian McKinney, CEO of McKinney Rogers, said they wanted the coverage everywhere, “from bus stop to rum shop.” McKinney said that the initiative to provide free nationwide WiFi across the country was spurred into action by the tremendous burden and turmoil arising from the economic recession affecting so many countries.
McKinney promised that the dream many others have had of nationwide WiFi in Barbados would finally become reality by November 11, 2011, adding that it was “an absolute commitment that we will provide free WiFi internet access to every person in this country by that date.” Accomplishing this noteworthy milestone would make Barbados the first island in the Caribbean to become completely wireless and will also make it the first country in the entire world to offer one hundred percent wireless coverage across its entire nation. Mr. McKinney also said that he saw this as an opportunity for the Caribbean nation to be at the “center of the world” by opening up the world to the people of Barbados via the free WiFi internet access.
The groups behind the new venture, along with McKinney, believe that the pioneering initiative will also encourage new ideas and growth from entrepreneurs and the business community. The unrestricted access to the wealth of information offered online will benefit everyone from children to retirees and McKinney was quoted as saying he believed that despite how small the nation is, “Barbados could be a world leader.” To accomplish such a monumental task BEF participated in numerous discussions with both the government of Barbados and telecommunications companies to provide what McKinney called a “seamless infrastructure” for businesses, residents and visitors without having to enter passwords.
The reaction in North America, home to the innovative communications company, Smart Mouth Mobile was jubilant. According to a company spokesman for this forward thinking young upstart, the news of the nationwide WiFi in Barbados also provides an immense opportunity to bring affordable unlimited international calling to the country. Another stated that he knew people in Barbados that were unable to stay in touch with relatives in the U.S. because it was cost prohibitive to call them. Smart Mouth Mobile intends to continue with their “Pay it Forward” philosophy by giving free subscriptions of their applications to the children of the country as well as law enforcement and military entities.
Smart Mouth Mobile is a debt free, privately held communications provider and mobile app developer committed to making a difference by offering true unlimited international calling worldwide via WiFi and GSM and making it available on iPhones, iPads, and the iPod Touch as well as Android and Blackberry devices, including tablets. Calls and texts are free between users of the Smart Mouth Mobile, Smart Mouth Kids Mobile, and The Smart Mobile applications and for a minimal upgrade of only $19.95 USD per year for the ability to enjoy virtually unlimited international communication anywhere in the world. It will no doubt be extremely popular in Barbados where exorbitant wireless costs have prevented many citizens from being able to talk to friends and relatives outside the island.
