Live TV and radio interviews. They can be worrying things, even when you’re not expecting to be challenged too much. I know this from experience. So when your company is launching a much-delayed operating system, you’d expect a few difficult questions… and you’d be ready with a response.

I didn’t study economics at college, which is probably one of the reasons I have a very simple perspective on quarterly results.

Anyway, it’s the time of year when some of the biggest names in the mobile telecoms industry publish their financial results – so here we go.
Targeted advertising on mobile devices is something we’re all getting increasingly familiar with. Visit a web site and there’s a good chance you’ll see an advertisement that’s aimed directly at you, perhaps using information about the sites you’ve previously visited, the type of smartphone you’re using or even your location.
