SeaMobile, Crystal Cruises Sign Contract
SeaMobile Inc. signed an agreement with Crystal Cruises to provide communication solutions for its guests throughout the world.

The SeaMobile communications service is designed to allow guests and staff of Crystal Cruises to use their own cellular phones and wireless PDAs while at sea.

The simple-to-use, high-quality service is expected to complement a host of luxury services aboard the Crystal Cruises ships.
