The Mobile Perspective

Back to the Nokia E75 I go
So as all of my readers know I’m a hard core Nokia E71 fanboy. I’ve been infatuated with the E71 since I first heard about it roughly 2 years ago. Now I’m impatiently waiting for the much anticipated E72 but I decided to whip out the E75 I was graciously lent for review and have [...]
Truphone is still the top dog in mVOIP
I got to spend some time with Karl Good of Truphone over the past 2 days at the ITExpo and have been reminded how much I like the best mobile VOIP service available today. Karl gave me an ultra secret briefing, please don’t ask me what we chatted about, I won’t tell you. No amount [...]
Apps I loaded on E71
I left on vacation a few days back, as I write this I’m in the passenger seat of a giant 12 passenger Ford F350 van. This thing is a monster but I like it. I’ve been preparing my electronic gear bag (I like to call it my toy bag) and I never know exactly what [...]

What are the apps that you put on every phone?

Email: Emoze (client) and Nokia Email Beta for testing, sometimes the Java Gmail app IM: Nimbuzz, Fring and Ovi Contacts Maps: Nokia Maps 3.0 Beta and Google Maps Twitter: Gravity [...]

Truphone now allows incoming calls on iPhone
I don’t have all the details just yet, but I got an IM the other night telling me that Truphone (mobile VOIP) is now set up to receive calls on the iPhone. Previously users could only place calls, which is nice but a little restrictive. Now having Truphone on your iPhone is like having 2 [...]
The battery on the E71 is impressive…Sometimes.
So I did not use the Nokia E71 for over 24 hours and the battery lasted. Here are the details. Wednesday was a short day for me but I still managed to kill the E71 battery before 2pm and then charged it back up 3/4 of the way before I unplugged everything at about 4pm. [...]
I got put on the Wire
I was interviewed yesterday by Jim Finkle from Reuters. We talked about Mobile VOIP for a while and I was introduced to a new company called DeFi and I told Jim all about Truphone (one of my favorite services). There’s an error in the pricing that I have already requested they correct. I’m excited to [...]
I’m happy to see a monthly plan at Truphone
Wow, one of my favorite companies, that I think has enormous potential just took a huge step. I think it’s a good direction, maybe not where I was hoping but still a good direction. Truphone just launched 1.5cents to the US and Canada. They are offering a monthly plan of $15/month for 1,000 minutes. This [...]
