ExclusiveLast week at The Fonecast: 30th January 2012

Mark Bridge writes:

If you want a big money story from the last few days, you want Apple. The company announced its highest quarterly revenue ever, hitting $46.33 billion (£29.66 billion) with record quarterly profits of $13.06 billion. That’s probably enough money to buy the moon, assuming Newt Gingrich is prepared to sell it – or, in the real world, is one of the biggest quarterly profits ever.

ExclusiveThe two-tier mobile internet: a different perspective

Mark Bridge writes:

If I start talking about a ‘tiered internet’ with a differing quality of service depending on the amount a customer pays, you’d probably start thinking about the topic of net neutrality.

ExclusiveLast week at The Fonecast: 23rd January 2012

Mark Bridge writes:

We’re starting the week with breaking (but not entirely unexpected) news that RIM has a new CEO. Just one, not two. We’ll be talking much more about him in Wednesday’s podcast. In fact, RIM’s announcement concludes a week that’s been packed with big names - and big money as well.

ExclusiveIt's the wrong song

Mark Bridge writes:

“T’ain’t what you do (it’s the way that you do it)”

So sang Ella Fitzgerald, Bananarama and the Fun Boy Three - although sadly not on the same recording. But that message is no longer being followed by many companies. Instead, the new mantra seems to be the other way round. And I think that’s a good thing.

M-commerce and mobile payments are terms that can mean several different things - from money transfers to NFC wallets, and from online purchases to credit card readers.

In this special podcast we learn more about the subject by talking to Tim Green, editor-in-chief of Mobile Money Revolution.

The programme has been produced as part of the #needtoknowmobile series in partnership with The Mobile Academy, which is hosted by Mobile Monday London and UCL.

You can listen to this podcast on our website audio player or by downloading the mp3 file.
