For the last few months I've been collecting information about all things mobile. One of the things I learned was that Sierra Wireless is about to release this 1st quarter two AirCards that, for the first time in a long time, will support Macs. This means I will have access without having to locate wifi. Does anyone out there have some experience with being totally mobile...what it entails, drawbacks, stability? Here's the link to the page.
As someone who has a reputation for watching every penny, I find using Vodafone Live! to be very frustrating because I have to pay a fee for every little scrap of information that I take from it. Everywhere I turn, it's 50 cents here and 50 cents there, and before I know it I've spent a considerable amount of money for a short period of browsing. With this in mind, it amazes me that Vodafone's clever marketing people haven't yet come up with the idea of offering Vodafone Live! subscription packages. These subscription packages could offer access to a combination of general information services such as news, weather, traffic, webcams, and maps for a discounted package price. This would make the whole Vodafone Live! experience more user friendly, provide better value for customers, and potentially increase revenue by compelling users to take advantage of services which they would otherwise not have used if individual service fees were incurred.
Every so often, we need to bow down and be told proper ways to things. We’ve got to swallow our pride and take instructions from someone else. This is one of those times for some of you, I’m sure. A great article from Information Week has a Q&A with David Wise, co-founder and managing partner for mindWireless, a mobility consultancy that helps businesses figure out how to better use wireless technologies. He answers some questions on how to better the mobile workforce in your office.
Nokia today announced that its Enterprise Solutions business group has received the 2007 Frost & Sullivan North American Mobility Award for Mobile Device Management.
Anything, anywhere, anytime, the query is not new. Still, the slogan having celebrated its 10th anniversary, today ubiquitous broadband wireless communication bringing multimedia services is definitely on its way. Given the diversity in geographical environment, terminals, and services, there is not one ideal wireless standard to cover all scenarios. Today however, the variety of wireless standards is huge, and together they can offer the desired technology for almost any service, following Darwin’s philosophy for wireless communications: not the strongest one will survive, but the fittest.
In December 2005, the CRTC issued a decision requiring all Canadian wireless telephone companies to implement wireless number portability (WNP) by March 14, 2007, in most of Canada. By March 14, 2007 Bell Mobility, Rogers Wireless and the mobility division of TELUS Communications Inc. will be required to provide WNP to their customers in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Québec. This means that customers in any of these provinces will be able to switch to any service provider in that province (wireline or wireless) and keep their phone number. Throughout Canada, all wireless carriers will, by the same date, be required to release a phone number to another carrier (port-out customers) and by no later than September 12, 2007, to accept a phone number from another carrier (port-in customers).
I recently saw some interesting numbers at the CWTA about the Canadian Wireless Market. Source data
