We're celebrating the seventh anniversary of The Fonecast this month with a handful of our favourite interviews from the early years.
You'll hear Ben Whitaker from Masabi, Truphone co-founder James Tagg, former Olympic athlete Steve Backley OBE and online banking pioneer Steve Townend.
This week's podcast begins with a report about a delay - or perhaps even cancellation - for the UK launch of HTC's Facebook phone, the HTC First.
We then move on to Vodafone's results, an Android app scare for Sky, Samsung's successes, contactless payments, potentially life-saving QR codes and an uncomfortable story about a smuggled mobile phone.
We start this week's podcast by talking about Yahoo and Tumblr before moving on to discuss Google's recent developer conference.
There are product announcements from BlackBerry, HP and the former MeeGo developers at Jolla... and there's some interesting mobile app news as well.
Three new smartphones launched at three separate events. Yes, Nokia has definitely been busy in the past few days.
As well as talking about Finland's finest phones, we also discuss recent claims made about EE, annual results from Sony, smart metering, 5G technology, virus protection, Vodafone and the worldwide growth of mobile phones.
We start today's programme with the promise of a faster roll-out for the UK's mobile broadband services.
Next on the agenda is tablet sales... followed by mobile security, mobile boarding passes, quarterly results, acquisitions, advertising and management succession.
