This week’s podcast from The Fonecast starts by looking at PayPal Here, the ‘point of sale’ solution that’ll turn an iPhone into a credit card terminal. Along with mobile payments there’s also news about WiFi on the London Underground, problems for giffgaff, m-health plans from Vodafone and Apple’s forthcoming spending spree.
As always, you can listen to the programme on our website audio player, via iTunes, by using our RSS feed or by downloading the MP3. Alternatively, take advantage of the Android, iOS or webOS Stitcher Radio app and stream the podcast to your mobile phone.
