Author ArchiveGday. I’m looking to do referal for referal trades with anybody who needs them. I’m looking to do freepay only, as I am familiar with them and know how they work. Here’s the link that I am trying to get 5 referals for. http://gaming.freepay.com/?r=44834309 http://gaming.freepay.com/?r=44834309 http://gaming.freepay.com/?r=44834309 yep so there it is. If you want to do a trade, you…
T-Mobile will apparently be adding the yellow MOTOACTV W450 in early September. Nothing too exciting here, except if you’re living a way-too-active lifestyle and require a water-resistant mobile phone with basic features and a media player. Aside from the obvious ruggedness, there’s nothing special on the W450. Bluetooth support, 1.3 megapixel camera and a microSD card slot combined sound so last year. Then again, the Deutsche Telekom owned mobile operator will sell the yellow device for about $30-50 and that’s about as good as it gets for the money… [Via: Engadget Mobile] —

Coming soon in Mexico: Pay stores and taxis with your mobile phonePosted by: admin in Mobile News
Users will be able to have their bank link their account to their mobile phone number so they can make payments to participating stores, restaurants and taxis by sending an SMS. This is so ultra useful, and I’m looking forward to see this happening in other countries, too. [Via: textually.org] —
We’ve already reported this is coming and now FCC is here to support our source. AT&T will be adding the Symbian OS with S60 3.2 (Feature pack 2) powered Nokia 6650 in the near future. Unfortunately we don’t have the exact release date nor price, but we do know what to expect from the 6650. It’s worth repeating so here goes: the clamshell device sports a 3G radio with “right” frequencies for the U.S. soil (WCDMA 850/1900 MHz), 2 megapixel camera, GPS, QVGA (320
There’s no doubt Apple’s AppStore works, hence we’re seeing Google doing the same for its Android platform. Why would Microsoft rely on third parties like Handango when they can do the similar thing themselves? That seems exactly what they want to do, or at least a job posting at ComputerJobs.com suggests so. Apparently the upcoming “marketplace service for Windows Mobile” will be called “Skymarket” and at the moment the Redmond giant is looking for a Product Manager to run it. We’re guessing Windows Mobile 7 will sport Skymarket as its integral part and yes, we’re looking forward to see that in action. In the meantime, we’re eagerly waiting for RIM to announce its app store… [Via: Engadget Mobile] —

Research: Mobile Content Consumers are more loyal than ‘Internet’ ConsumersPosted by: admin in Mobile News
Prof. Philip Sugai and Prof. Donghun Kim, both professors at the International University of Japan, have written a paper called “Consumer Loyalty and Willingness to Pay for Service Attributes Across Digital Channels: A Study of the Japanese Digital Content Market”. The research aparently looked at more than 400 users in Japan, and found out what made people loyal, on both free and paid-for content sites. Well we know the Japanese market is a different one to that in Europe, but I also wonder if the answer was always going to be that Mobile content consumer would be more loyal - because of various obstacles that defeat them looking for farther afield (e.g. interoperability of mobile-friendly websites, payment mechanisms, poor search engines, etc). The complete paper has just been published in the August edition of the journal “Telecommunications Policy,” and is available for download through the Elsevier Publishing website: http://www.elsevier.com. More details about this paper are also available through the Mobile Consumer Behavior website, http://www.MoCoBe.com [Via: 3g.co.uk] —
Never let it be said we don’t cover PMPs (Personal Media Players) - after all, they are Mobile, and they’ve superset features of what we tend to find in Mobile Handsets - at least in terms of Multimedia.
Recently I’ve had chance to have “extreme possession” of the MS800 device from Gigabyte (labelled under the “G-Smart” brand). Below are some brief highlights, pointer to the specs, and the G-Smart website itself: Initial impressions were that the G-Smart devices come in a professionally put-together set of packaging. Included are in-car charger, USB cable, spare pointer, instructions, wired stereo headset, and multi-country component mains charger - a nice set of accessories. A case wouldn’t have got amiss, but it’s not a showstopper The device itself is well-made - nice construction, and plenty of time and effort obviously spent avoiding the serious “creak” problems that many plastic-bodied devices have:
The O/S is WinMo 6 Pro - on top of this G-Smart have layered their “Smart Touch UI”, which is another attempt to make a finger-based input possible, rather than using a Stylus: This isn’t entirely a success - whilst it is quite well-integrated with the traditional Win Homescreen, when you are utilising the carousel, it doesn’t react as accurately as you might expect. Compared to a certain “i” device, it’s not in the same league.
