Nawras, Oman's second-largest mobile phone operator, will launch the first 3G service in the sultanate in a few months, enabling customers to make video calls and send email using their phones. The 3G service will launch in Muscat and Sohar before expanding to cover Oman's other towns and cities. Nawras is owned by Qatar's Qtel. Oman's largest mobile operator, Omantel, has yet to announce its plans for 3G technology.
