ExclusiveConnecting London Car Telephones to TheFonecast.com

Opinion The Fonecast -

It was 1996 when I started working at the Cricklewood head office of Peoples Phone [writes Mark Bridge], initially in a sales support role before becoming part of the Marketing team. The company was an independent mobile phone retailer with a growing network of high-street shops and connected customers. In November 1996 the company and its customer base were acquired by Vodafone, which had already taken over the Talkland retail business and was soon to add Astec to its portfolio.

ExclusivePodcast predictions for 2011

Opinion Mark -

Mark Bridge writes:

Every year since we started podcasting in 2006, we've used our last regular show of the year to make some predictions for the following 12 months.

This year's podcast on 22nd December was no exception.

ExclusiveWAC, Opera and Android

Opinion Mark -

James Rosewell writes:

Just in time to make it into 2010, the Wholesale Application Community has gained some important but relatively unreported publicity courtesy of Opera.

ExclusiveFCC regulators pass controversial 'net neutrality' rules for US

Opinion Mark -

ExclusiveThe teardown: engineering or entertainment?

Opinion Mark -

Mark Bridge writes:

A few months ago I wrote about the so-called geek porn of unboxing. However, I’ve recently been reminded there is another similar type of geek porn. It’s darker than unboxing. More destructive. It’s the teardown.

ExclusiveGroupon goes mobile in the UK - but what will it mean to us?

Opinion Mark -

Mark Bridge writes:

Groupon is a US phenomenon that’s not quite become ‘mainstream’ in the UK… yet. While the transatlantic tech press have been intrigued by the will-they-won’t-they story of Google apparently offering up to $6 billion for the two-year-old company, most of the UK has been wondering what the fuss is about.

But all that could be about to change.
