Mark Windle, head of marketing at OpenCloud, predicts that this year’s reduction in the number of traditional telecoms operators in some countries will provide an opportunity for other operators to innovate and capture market share in 2016.

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.

James Rosewell shows me a colourful roll of paper that's the width of an iPhone but well over three metres long. When I look closer, I can see it's a printed copy of the Wall Street Journal's mobile website. That's a lot of scrolling to do... and a pretty unfriendly user experience for anyone reading the news online. Why does it work so badly?

Iain, James and Mark look at the week's mobile industry news, from texting lifeguards to Windows Phone 7. In addition, James talks to Eran Yaniv from Perfecto Mobile about testing mobile software, services and websites without owning a single handset.

This week's mobile industry headlines include changes at the top in Nokia, reorganisation at Vodafone and more power for 3G transmitters. There's also a report from Qualcomm's IQ2010 event in London.
