I was just reading about a new miniature Femtocell and was thinking, you know what would be really great, a Femtocell built into a MiFi along with a traditional wireless router. I have found myself more then once in a nice hotel that thought they were doing me a favor offering free internet if I [...]
BlackBerry Bold 9780 Review
This blog post is quite late but none the less still appropriate. I’ve had the BlackBerry 9780 for a few months now and want to share my thoughts on it. This isn’t going to be a traditional review like most others, I’m just going to tell you what I like and dislike about [...]
Dvir Reznik of Onavo

Truphone Now Supports BlackBerry
I’ve been writing about Truphone since 2007 and I suspect using it even longer. I was called the biggest Truphone fan by Ewan MacLeod back in 2007 or 2008. I wish I could remember when they launched but boy oh boy was it amazing back then. Fast forward 5 years (I’m guessing) and you know [...]

Touchnote at MWC ’10, These Guys are Geniuses

These guys can take your camera phone pictures and send them off as physical postcards to anywhere in the world. Touchnote is currently abailable on the Ovi Store and the iPhone. [...]

I’ve been wanting to blog about some Truphone (one of my favorite services) news for days now and I’m finally getting to all the news. Instead of writing 3 different posts I’m just going to condense it down to one short post. Let’s get to it. 1. Truphone is in an MVNO relationship with Vodafone [...]
