SMS - The Little Engine That Keeps Driving the Mobile Industry

September 12, 2008

Text-Messaging Rates Come Under Scrutiny | online.wsj.com

The argument that SMS pricing is not linked to cost has always been true.  There will come a point where SMS pricing is more elastic (either because the price becomes too high or there are messaging alternatives), but we have not reached that point yet.

LTE is going to win WiMax

June 20, 2008

Nortel, Alvarion in wireless pact | biz.yahoo.com

LTE is going to win WiMax because LTE is a part of the 3GPP. WiMax is mainly supported by Intel that has never been successful in the wireless industry. Practically, I don’t see a mobile user, with 2 or 4 or even 4 inch screen, using more than 10Mbps on his device. Given that most of the fancy devices out there today (including RIMM, iPhone, and others) are basically 2G devices. Field measurements will prove less the 100kbps in those devices, and we all pretty happy with that. Today’s 3GPP UMTS standard could support about 10Mbps, and it’s not very well accepted all over the world. So, let’s be reasonable: why?

Apple’s iPhone 3G - end of the marriage Apple – ATT

June 20, 2008

Apple may soon be free from AT&T | news.cnet.com

The new iPhone is a 3G UMTS HSDPA capable device does not have a lock-unlock mechanism. The UMTS standard, is a universal standard. By definition UMTS stands for Universal Mobile Terrestrial System. Therefore, the lock-unlock mechanism is not required anymore. The GSM-GPRS-EDGE iPhone, which was Appl’s first generation design, was locked to a particular network. In the USA, exclusivity granted to ATT and therefore a third party software needed to activate a phone on the network.   Within the 3G phone, this process is not needed and every 3G, backward compatible with 2G, network could use the device.

Mobile Voice and Data Share the Throne

April 30, 2008

CTIA: Mobile Data Use Up, But Voice Remains King | www.informationweek.com

While mobile voice can be considered “King” as it represents the majority of mobile traffic and revenues, the mobile industry’s growth engine is data.  Rather than worrying about what is King (or Queen), the industry needs to concern itself with solutions that optimize the overall mobile experience - marrying voice and data.
