France-based Bouygues Telecom will sell the mobile network capacity in France to Dutch operator Royal KPN.
The move will enable the Dutch company to launch the MVNO in France, without owning its own network.
The news has been confirmed by Bouygues Telecom’s spokeswomen, who simply said “It’s true” to Dow Jones Newswires.
Bouygues Telecom is the third largest mobile operator in France by revenue, after Orange and SFR.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
