MVNO Kajeet Launches AOL IM

AOL adds another mobile operator to the list using its instant-messaging client: Maryland-based MVNO kajeet will be using an IM solution from Comverse to enable AOL’s IM service (AIM) over its network. Kajeet has been in operation since 2003 (under a deal with Sprint) and bills itself as a child-oriented mobile operator–albeit on probably a lower cost base than other youth-focussed MVNOs like Amp’d and Disney. It sells its services on a pay-as-you-go basis, offering various youth-friendly services with options for parents to control what content the kids get to use.
