Prague, 26. June 2006 - Almost one percent of T-Mobile customers want to make acquaintances via the t-zones WAP portal. One customer in three thousand uses a mobile phone to search for the nearest erotic club three to four times a month. Nearly one percent of customers monthly use the "virtual" erotic services at t-zones. Popular services also include SMS services such as erotic jokes and Kama Sutra tips, as well as MMS erotic channels with pictures.
"Erotic themes rank among the most demanded on the internet, and modern mobile handsets with big colour displays and EDGE support have radically raised the interest. The greatest boom can be seen in erotic videos," says Michal Nemec, Vice President Mobile Portal and Content Services at T-Mobile.
The survey has also showed that one third of the customers using MMS Info with erotic themes are regular subscribers to the service. The most popular MMS channel is Kama Sutra, followed by erotic stars and lesbian love images. At the end of the unchanging spectrum are erotic stories. At t-zones, visitors clearly prefer traditional soft erotic topics such as blondes, brunettes and lesbians. The most popular Downloads are the Penthouse magazine content and erotic stars. Rather surprisingly, animated erotic pictures placed third, surpassing the popularity of blondes and brunettes.
Erotic competitions at t-zones are also very popular, with the summer competition taking the lead - last year, it attracted about twenty thousand visitors. In this year's contest called Playboy Bikini 2006, twelve selected models will take part, each presenting five swimsuits. The Playboy Bikini 2006 competition for the most beautiful girl will run from 1 July to 31 August 2006. In addition, four accompanying contests will take place during the summer: for the most beautiful breasts (3 - 16 July), for the sexiest bottom (17 - 30 July), for the best video (31 July - 13 August) and for the sexiest legs (14 - 27 August). The voting visitors to the competition's website can win attractive prizes, such as an evening for two in a men's club, a subscription to Playboy magazine, T-shirts with the competition's logo and VIP tickets to the Playboy December party. The competition will be available from 1 July at t-zones in your handset under News, or you can type wap.bikini.cz in your WAP browser.
