Why do we need SCOOPE STM Mobile?
A Mobile Phone can also access News Letters directly from the Portal. In such a case what is the advantage of having SCOOPE STM Mobile in my mobile?

A Web Portal is designed more for Computer based access and hence it is usually a painful and time consuming process if the access is attempted from a Mobile Phone of limited power. That is why there are many sites specially designed for Mobile Phone access. The number of buttons to click, the landscape display of a computer screen and the contrasting Portrait type of display in a Mobile Phone, the Network connectivity Speed, the cost incurred for every Kilo Byte of data download and several other such factors matter a lot. Even some times accessing the Web Portal by typing the URL is a time consuming process due to the small sized key board of a mobile phone. As not everyone has a smart mobile phone with advanced features, SCOOPE STM Mobile is designed to operate even in ordinary mobile phones and thus making its reach wider.

SCOOPE STM Mobile is specially designed in such a way that the Phone’s memory card is used for local storage and therefore saving money and time for the subscriber. Just download the Newsletter to the local memory and read it at your leisure. A host of other features such as Search for KeyWords, Navigate to Links in the document etc. are possible when the Newsletter is accessed from local memory.
