Vollee reveals Second Life mobile beta stats

Well, selective stats, anyway

Vollee reveals Second Life mobile beta stats
|

We've written about Vollee before and its innovative mobile application that lets you access the Second Life virtual world.

Now the company has revealed some data about that app's beta trial. Specifically, Vollee says that it's been downloaded by users in more than 98 countries, on more than 253 mobile operators, for 70 different handsets.

That's since the beta launched in June this year, making it the first publicly available application providing mobile access to Second Life.

"We were able to bring Second Life to mobile in a way that Residents all over the world, from Afghanistan to Venezuela, have flocked to," said Martin Dunsby, Vollee's CEO.

However, we'd be much more interested in how many actual users have downloaded the application, and then how many of them have continued using it regularly.

Presumably we'll have to wait a little longer for that kind of data. In the meantime, check out our interview with Vollee about the app, and if you want to sign up, click here.
