The reason that MTN is undertaking this venture is because of the difficult access to financial institutions in these third world countries. The mobile phone banking service was launched as a pilot in South Africa in 2005 and it has reaped much success. The service that was offered in the past focused on basic financial services, such as money transferring. Now MTN will provide a full purpose bank account on mobile phones, which will also allow for payments to be made (credit card is optional). This mobile banking service by MTN will also serve as an affordable track for subscribers to purchase air… Read full item... NBA Mobile Phone – N111 The NBA, America’s famous basketball league, has come out with the N111, a unique mobile phone for basketball fans.

The N111 “NBA Mobile Phone” may land up being a low-end mobile phone, with the NBA logo being its only redeeming feature. The exact specifications of this device have not yet been revealed by the manufacturers, however it can be seen in the image that the NBA mobile does have a camera and large screen. The navigation keys are also shaped in the form of a basketball. The use of a world famous brand to get consumers to relate to the product has become a popular… Read full item... 16 Mar 2009 Change in US Policy Regarding Cuba and Mobile Phones Prior to his leaving of office President George W. Bush announced a change in US policy, which would allow for Americans to send mobile phones to relatives in Cuba. This change came after President Raul Castro eased restrictions on phone ownership in the country. The easing of restrictions came despite the fact that George Bush and the Castro brothers are not on the best of terms. Bush went through with this motion following Raul Castro’s initiative allowing for Cubans to own mobile phones. Raul Castro has started a series of reforms which include the mobile phone reform in his country. Cuba’s state telecom company Etecsa predicted that 1.4 million Cuban’s have mobile phone contracts. This number ought to grow tremendously on the island of 11 million people following… Read full item... Al-Qaeda mobile phone downloads? Not so long ago, the media wing of Al-Qaeda, Al-Sahab posted Al-Qaeda downloads for mobile phones on Islamic militant websites. These videos for mobile phone included recordings of Osama Ben Laden and Ayman Zawahiri (Ben Laden’s number 2), as well as a tribute to the death of Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi, the former Al-Qaeda head in Iraq, who was killed by American forces in 2006. Intelligence sources have described the possibility that Al-Qaeda may use such messages to pass on information or signals to their sleeper agents and supporters around the world. Videos that can be played on mobile phones have become ever so popular in the Middle East. Downloads of the Saddam Hussein execution in December 2006 appeared on mobile phones not long after his death. That is just another… Read full item... India is still BOOMING! The mobile market in India is still on the up despite the global financial crisis. Economists had forecast a slowdown for India’s economic growth; however this has not occurred in the mobile phone sector, which is driven by the world’s lowest call rates and the many companies that have created fierce competition. An additional 15.4 million mobile devices were purchased in January 2009 alone, making it the month with the biggest growth in Indian telecom history. The figures currently show that almost 35% of the Indian population owns a mobile device (66% are city dwellers and 9% live in rural areas). The large market which is now being targeted by the providers is the rural market where 70% of the Indian population finds itself. A consumer will pay on average 2 US cents… Read full item... 15 Mar 2009 Mobile phones and Shell Oil Stations. Just An Urban Legend! One might have noticed that gas stations have warning signs placed on their premises usually stating that the use of a cellular device adjacent to the pump is not allowed. This is based upon the premise that while pumping gas, using or turning on a mobile phone is said to release a static electricity charge which can ignite fuel. It has been proven that a charge of static electricity can lead to the combustion of fuel vapors. A study found that charges from a cellular phone were not strong enough to ignite anything. In the late 1990’s an email spreading this rumor was circulated internationally claiming that the Shell Oil Company had published a warning regarding three separate cases of mobile phones causing fire at the pump. When Shell Oil Company was contacted about… Read full item... 13 Mar 2009 Financial Crisis Hits the Mobile Phone Market The figures show that the overall shipments of mobile phones have dropped by 10% in the fourth quarter of 2008 in comparison with the same period of the previous year. The total number of mobile phones that were shipped during this period stands at just under 300 million units according to Strategy Analytics, a marketing research group. What was even more worrying was that fourth quarter sales of mobile phones were lower than third quarter sales, this setting a precedent for the difficult times ahead. Mobile phones, as a part of the consumer electronics sector, are following the rapid decline that has been seen in the automobile and housing markets. Three of the major mobile phone vendors experienced negative growth during this period, among them Sony Ericsson, Motorola… Read full item... 12 Mar 2009 Facebook Access Without an Internet Connection on Momail There is a new mobile phone service which permits the user to manage his/her Facebook profile and also allows them to chat to their friends via their handset.

It was actually not that long ago. These long range electronic devices which enable us to chat with friends and family while we are on the go have truly revolutionized our lives for better and for worse. Once upon a time we were restricted to our homes or workplace with the intention of making or waiting for a phone call. Our loved ones would sit around worried sick if we were late to come home. There were no quick calls to tell mom that there would be additional guests coming for dinner. We would have to count on notes left on desktops to convey messages. We had no caller ID to identify that annoying relative who we did not wish to speak to. How did we cope? On the other hand we actually had some privacy! These days people… Read full item... 11 Mar 2009 Chinese Government – No Porn for You! The Chinese Public Security Ministry is continuing its crackdown on Internet porn by taking on downloads for mobile phones. Cellular content is only the latest target in the ministry’s campaign to block access to pornography. It is important to mention that mobile content in Asia is far more popular than it is in North America. The Public Security Ministry website has posted warnings but did not expand on what their crackdown would entail. The belief is that it will involve halting multimedia messages and text content which might be considered inappropriate. This long term plan to purify the internet falls into line with the Chinese governments wish to retain its power of propaganda in the Communist state. The big question is whether the Chinese Public Security Ministry… Read full item... ... 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 ...
