mmO2, formerly BT Wireless, has announced a collaboration with Microsoft today to offer secure GPRS connections to its customers.

The agreement is based on Microsoft Mobile Information Server Enterprise and Carrier Editions software, and will offer secure wireless access to companies' intranets and MS Exchange data, such as email, contacts and calendar information.

The agreement covers all of mmO2's mobile arms across Europe, allowing its customers to access information in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands and Ireland.

Today's announcement is building on the alliance between mmO2 and Microsoft, created back in October 2001.
