Adding to this milestone, OZ also announced that it has shipped its 100 millionth preloaded client on mobile phones.

“We are seeing accelerated mobile messaging growth across all of our North American and European customers which has helped OZ to achieve this milestone. Over the past year messaging activity for our Mobile IM customers grew 220%, and Mobile Email has seen a 350% growth in messages,” said Jim Knapik, President and CEO of OZ. “With the recent launch of our Mobile Email Solution with Verizon Wireless, we have strengthened our market leadership in North America with mobile operator customers reaching more than 90% of the entire market.
