VC-Backed Oplayo Acquired By Slice Wireless

Here's a trans-border deal if ever there was one: Australian Slice Wireless joined up with Prague-based U-Turn Media to acquire the Finnish mobile content platform provider Oplayo. There was no dislcosure on price paid.

U-Turn was founded in 2001 and is specialized in video delivery to mobilephones. Slice provides a publishing and payment platform for content providers targeting wireless devices.

The last time a:c euro talked Oplayo, it was reporting a million downloads of video files to mobilephones per month (last September). Shares in the startup were sold by its backers, Holtron Ventures, Zouk Ventures, Blue Run (formerly Nokia Venture Partners) and SAC Participations.
