According to a new survey from ABI Research, 73% of countries with 4G mobile services have seen the ‘price per megabyte’ of 4G data fall by an average of 30% in the past six months.

The lowest price for 4G data is currently in India, while the highest price - $67.80 (£43) for 5GB - is in the UAE.

The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority in the United Arab Emirates says BlackBerry services can continue to operate as normal because they're now compliant with the UAE's telecommunications regulatory framework. Certain BlackBerry services had been threatened with closure this month after security concerns were raised in August.

Following yesterday's announcement from the UAE that certain online BlackBerry services would be blocked from October because they're encrypted and cannot be monitored, Saudi Arabia has said it'll be blocking the BlackBerry Messenger instant messaging service later this month for similar reasons.

The United Arab Emirates will suspend a number of online services used by BlackBerry devices - BlackBerry Messenger, BlackBerry email and BlackBerry web browsing – from 11th October, according to the UAE's official news agency.

The decision has been made by the UAE's Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA), which has been concerned for a number of years that BlackBerry devices route these online services off-shore.

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.

He says next year will be a year of rapid change for telecoms… whether it’s MVNO disruption, competitive tariff pricing or simply defence from the ‘dark art’ of hacking.

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?
