This week’s edition of The Fonecast included an interview with Suneet S Tuli, CEO of DataWind. DataWind is the Canadian company that produces the PocketSurfer2 internet device. There wasn’t room for the entire interview in our regular show so we’ve produced a separate podcast containing the full conversation.

In it, Suneet talks about convergence, simple data prices, roaming charges, usage, consumer acceptance and the forthcoming PocketSurfer3 – which is scheduled to appear before the end of summer 2009.

The Carphone Warehouse has published its final results for the financial year and has announced that it'll split into two separate companies – the retail 'Best Buy Europe' operation and the TalkTalk fixed-line business – by July 2010 at the latest. It’s also confirmed that the Best Buy Europe partnership is on course to open its first 'Big Box' stores in spring 2010.

In this special extended interview, Suneet Singh Tuli talks to Iain Graham about the PocketSurfer device. They discuss form factors, flat-rate charging for data, roaming charges, convergence, consumer acceptance - and the forthcoming PocketSurfer3.

Price comparison website moneysupermarket.com has calculated that Britons are wasting 85,000 tonnes of CO2 on overcharging their mobile phones every year; the equivalent of an electricity bill costing almost £40 million.

49% of mobile users under twenty admitting to overcharging their mobiles by an average of 7.3 hours every time; the national average is 13% of people overcharging by an average of eight hours. The company points out that the average phone only takes about 2-3 hours to charge up.
