This excerpt taken from the MTA 20-F filed May 21, 2009. Products and services Voice services In July 2008, we introduced a new tariff plan which mixes the advantages of prepaid and postpaid packages in a new postpaid package (i.e., favorable rates, comfortable postpaid invoicing with controllable expenses). Subscribers of this package must recharge the balance once the monthly subscription fee has been used toward usage. In October 2008, we launched new prepaid and postpaid tariff packages for iWiW members offering favorable tariffs within the user-group. 33 International roaming service was available for our mobile subscribers on 410 networks in 187 countries as of December 31, 2008, of which 214 networks in 119 countries were available for prepaid customers. On December 31, 2008, customers could use 219 General Packet Radio Service ("GPRS") networks in 109 countries. Since January 1, 2008, Magyar Telekom sends and receives all its international voice traffic to and from Deutsche Telekom when Deutsche Telekom offers more favorable price and better quality than other international carrier service providers. Non-voice services In 2008, we continued to enhance our non-voice service portfolio, introduced several new products, increased the penetration and usage of the existing products and extended the access of some of our domestic products abroad:

Equipment and activation We distribute an extensive range of mobile device portfolio, such as terminals, accessories, notebooks, netbooks, data products, SIM cards and vouchers. We focus on both acquisition and retention, offering several favorable packages to our customers, like the interest-free installment option for almost all mobile handsets and notebooks, or in case of our existing customers, the popular loyalty offers with more favorable prices and conditions. We offer combined mobile service and device offers to our customers, finely-tuning the eventualities of existing mobile services, together with supportive devices. The best example of this is the successful introduction of iPhone 3G in the Hungarian market exclusively by TMH. iPhone 3Gs can be also bought bundled with iPhone specific tariff plans (ikon 400 and ikon 600), which help fully exploit iPhone 3G's multimedia capabilities. TMH sells and leases equipments manufactured by other companies. The telecommunications device sector is highly competitive and characterized by rapid technological innovation, mainly in the mobile business. We believe that supply and service of telecommunications devices are integral elements of a full service telecommunications provider, and are necessary for the expansion of our customer base. In addition, these activities allow us to ensure that technologically advanced equipments required for new services are available on the Hungarian market. 35 Other mobile services Pro-M realizes service revenues from providing EDR telecommunications services for various public safety (emergency) and law enforcement bodies based on the EDR contract.
