Second Life – Vollee

May 6, 2009
by Jose

Well I did a post about Vollee yesterday.  When I was looking at their website I found out they created a Second Life client that will run on the phone.  I am unable to test out their client since they don’t support yet Samsung BlackJack 2.  But base on some of the videos it doesn’t look all that bad.  Vollee reliease on streaming so the game would run fast.  Second Life was never intended for mobile devices but the work Vollee has done with Linden Labs have made it possible.

Currently if you want to use the Vollee Second Life client, it is supported by 70 mobile phones.  But you need to make sure you have a data plan.  I would recommend unlimited.  Your phone must be on the 3G network or WiFi or the client will not work.

Vollee has kept true to the desktop version of Second Life.  You still have the chat window you can open up to talk to friends, and can look your friends list.  Also you still have the ability to fly and teleport.  The client is free all you need to make sure is to have an account with Second Life.

So those of you who are into Second Life.  I do recommend giving it a try if your phone is on Vollee’s list.

Well if anyone knows anything or would like to leave a comment please do.

    Sorry for the late reply. When I did the post their developer section was up. Which allowed users to download Second Life. But now that is not the case. The web page is also down. I will see if I can find their email. To get in contact with them to get information about this. Once I do I will put up another comment.

    From what I’ve been able to gather, Vollee seems to have been bought out by GameGround – or atleast the creator of Vollee, Yaron Buznach, seems to now be a part of GameGround. I’ve not been able to get to the GameGround website as it is currently under construction or under beta testing. I just wish some notice had been sent out about their closing if only to keep my frustration level from getting so high not being able to connect at all for months. Now if I can find someone who’s making a mobile IM program for SL access, I’d take that over the graphics ability of an actual mobile SL.
