Brits find mobile phones too complicated

Although a mobile phone is considered an essential gadget by most people, research from Fonebank found that over a third wanted simplicity.

The mobile phone recycling company said of the 1,000 people who took part in its recent survey, three-quarters believed current handsets are less reliable and robust. While many are initially swayed by all the functions bundled into a phone, the survey found many are rarely used.
For example, although the average age of the respondents was between 18 and 35, inbuilt cameras and MP3 players are considered superfluous by 30 per cent and 45 per cent respectively.

Fonebank found that nearly half of people said they tend to use their mobiles almost exclusively for making and receiving calls and texts.

Mark Harrison, Fonebank’s director said: “People think they care about pixels or megabits when in fact they just want mobiles that are easy to use. Calling and texting remain the primary functions of mobiles, with web surfing, emailing and music capabilities relatively unimportant.”

However, he did say that despite a lack of enthusiasm for some of the 'whistles' and 'bells', mobiles have fundamentally changed the way people use other gadgets.

"Many people feel lost without their mobile, using it as a personal assistant or even a replacement for their alarm clock or watch," said Mr Harrison.

India bans mobiles without 'code'

Cheap mobile handsets without the code and imported primarily from China and Taiwan are popular in India.

Over 25 million such handsets are now in use in India, according to the federal telecom ministry.

Last year, Indian intelligence agencies had said phones without the code were being used by terrorist groups in attacks in the country.

Time-consuming

The International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number is a 15-digit code which appears on the operator's network whenever a call is made.

The absence of this number makes it impossible to trace either the caller or the phone. It is also makes it impossible to get call details for these handsets.

Orders to detect handsets without the identification numbers were issued last year but some mobile phone operators asked for more time to identify these phones.

They said the time and software required to identify these phones was time-consuming.

Priced between $60 and $120, the cheap handsets have a big market among rural and semi-urban consumers who want connectivity at cheaper cost.

There are over 380 million mobile phone users in India.

The president of the Indian Cellular Association, Pankaj Mohandroo, has been campaigning against Chinese-made phones for years.

He called the government announcement as a "partial solution" saying the problem of millions of handsets in circulation has not been tackled.

"We have demanded immediate disconnection of services to such mobile phones but that has not happened," he observed.

The government has ordered that no new connections be provided to such handsets.

India has also announced a partial ban on the import of Chinese toys that do not meet international standards until January 2010.

World Cup fans get cheap calls from T Mobil

England fans planning to visit the Germany for the World Cup finals this summer have received good news from T Mobile.
The official mobile phone operator for the World Cup has announced a special 25 pence per minute tariff for British customers in Germany.
Callers are required to purchase a pre-pay bundle of 40 minutes for £10. The minutes are valid until July 30 th.
T Mobile recently announced reductions in roaming charges following pressure from the European commission.

MWC 2008: The World's Cheapest Mobile Phone Comes for Less Than $20

Spice Corp Ltd., a leading Indian telecommunications company, showcased at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, the world's cheapest handset, dubbed the "People's Phone".
window.google_render_ad();
This new device comes without a display and it's clearly targeted for those who only want to make phone calls and do not care for other features. The People's Phone is "just a phone", similar to a landline phone in functionality but having the advantage of being mobile and using GMS networks. The device will retail for a price of less than 20 USD (about 12 Euro) and its producer hopes to sell millions of units in India (plus other Asian markets) after its launching, planned for March 2008. The handset will also come with low calling rates, making it perfect for new low-budget mobile subscribers that come from small towns and rural areas.
Another affordable device presented by Spice is the Braille Phone, which looks exactly like the People's Phone but it's specially created for users who suffer from severe visual impairment. The handset's keys have braille numbers on them instead of "painted" numbers, enabling blind persons to make phone calls with ease. The Braille Phone comes for the same price of less than $20. Besides the two basic phones, Spice also presented the Movie Phone, being the first mobile phone that can play movies on a disc. It also offers music capabilities and, of course, it comes at a higher price. With more than 200 million mobile subscribers in 2007, India is one of the largest mobile markets in the world. Moreover, its mobile users number will grow quickly in the next years, making the 1.1 billion population country one of the most important for any mobile manufacturer. As in any emerging market, affordable handsets have the highest demand, since most of the people will not spend too much money on unessential technology. Spice tries to take advantage of this fact with the People's Phone, and I believe it will be successful in its attempt. Make and receive calls, then put the phone back in your pocket - this is all users need after all.

Motorola C116 proves cheap can be great — too bad you can't get it in U.S.


NEW YORK — Motorola’s nifty little C116 just might be the best cell phone I’ve ever had the chance to play with. That said — you can’t get one. Not here. Not yet.

A very, very basic GSM handset that handles incoming and outgoing calls as well as SMS messages, the C116 is sold all over the world — except for the United States. It’s not sold here because it’s too cheap!

Cheapest Mobile Phone in the World only $12

Reliance Communications of India had announced plans to introduce potentially the world cheapest internet-enabled mobile phone at $12 and they are targeting to sell 1 million handsets a year. I wonder why only 1 million when its $12?? Surely India has a much bigger market than that right?
They are currently in advanced stages of discussions with leading contract manufacturers in China, Taiwan and Korea for sourcing the prototype of the low-cost internett-enabled mobile phone. The company intends to place an initial order for 12 million handsets. It will target the 600 million rural population and sell around 1 million pieces a year in the rural and semi-urban areas.
At that price, i would recommend them to bundle the phone with the service. Why bother trying to sell at $12. As its, most providers worldwide are giving away free phones bundled with their mobile services. At $12 a piece, the return of investment (ROI) should be fast.

Lifeline: 1.4 million Americans recieving free or very cheap mobile service

Lifeline is a service that you would not be proud to tell someone you’re a part of. You need to fit within certain criteria the federal government has set for you to be labeled “low income” or qualify for social services. Around 90% of Americans have a mobile phone according to Nielsen, which may sound like a lot, but penetration rates in many European countries have exceeded 100% (more than one phone per person) for quite a long time. That leaves 32 million Americans without a mobile phone.
No one is questioning the need to stay connected and I hope the people who are against government funded mobile access come to the realization that being connected to the world is just as important as clean water and free education. The number of people using Lifeline has doubled since November 2008 and is now around 1.4 million and it works by operators receiving a $10 per month government subsidy for providing 68 minutes a month of talk time. Tracfone, a company based out of Florida that has a successful prepaid business, provides the handsets and operators like AT&T (NYSE: T), Sprint (NYSE: S) and T-Mobile (NYSE: DT) are supporting the Lifeline initiative.
There is currently a debate as to whether or not the government subsidy should be applied for wireless service, which again, is tied to the old line of thinking that a mobile phone is equated to having a luxury item.

Sony Ericsson may unveil XPERIA X2 on June 17

The Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 hasn’t even been officially outed by Sony Ericsson (NYSE: SNE), yet we already know that the XPERIA successor will be one-upping the X1 with upgraded (faster, better, stronger) specs. The X2 rocks a faster processor, an 8.1-megapixel camera (with auto-focus and 30fps video recording), the new Windows Mobile 6.5 OS, a refreshed Panel UI and that sweet 3.5-inch AMOLED WVGA touchscreen. Suffice it to say that Sony Ericsson is making good on their promise to bring the best of the best to the XPERIA flagship lineup.

Samsung Launches Omnia Pro Twin Brother: B7320


It’s been a busy day for Samsung - they’ve gone official with not only the Jet and Omnia Pro, but also this Omnia Pro variant (B7320). Opposed to its side-sliding sibling, the B7320 features a BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM)-style QWERTY keypad, but presumably similar specs. The only things they’ll tell us right now is that it has a 3 megapixel camera, FM tuner supporting RDS, and Wi-Fi. That definitely looks like a front-facing video conferencing camera, too.
Samsung also announced a little something called the Omnia Lite, which we’ll get to shortly…
[via Samsung]

Samsung Omnia Lite B7300 Announced

The fourth and final phone announced by Samsung today is the Omnia Lite (9B7300). So far, they’re only telling us that the B7300 packs TouchWiz 2.0, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, aGPS, a 3.2 megapixel camera, and comes preloaded with Opera and the Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) Office Suite. The B7300 had snuck out back in March, but not much was revealed then either. Luckily Unwired View dug up a few more specs:
Quad-band GSM, GPRS, Edge connectivity
3.2” 320×400px TFT LCD touchsreen
Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0 (microUSB)
Dimensions: 107,9 x 51,8 x 12,98 mm
Weight: 100gr
If you haven’t already, take a gander at Samsung’s other new phones, the two Omnia Pros and the Jet.

T-Mobile Branded myTouch 3G Spy Shots Leaked

In Android, GPhone, HTC, Photos, Rumors, T-Mobile
We all know the T-Mobile (NYSE: DT) myTouch 3G is coming… But here’s a little more fuel to throw on the fire. The first T-Mobile branded images of the upcoming myTouch 3G have leaked out. The images come via AndroidForums where a user posted them. Apparently the snaps were taken by someone that was handed the phone by someone at Google (NSDQ: GOOG).
In case you missed it, box shots had leaked out earlier that revealed 3 colors for the upcoming myTouch 3G (merlot, white and black). Rumors that the myTouch 3G may launch before the end of the month are certainly looking more and more feasible.

The typical cell phone has become somewhat obsolete; current cell phones offer embedded features such as memory databases for storing frequently called numbers, locking features for theft deterrence, crystallized displays, internet connection capabilities, and other useful features. With the addition of popular culture, science, and marketing the cellular phone accessories industry has sky rocketed to meet the ever-growing needs of the consumer.

Software
Cellular telephones have become very popular with professionals and consumers as a way to communicate while away from their regular, wire-based phone, creating a niche for software makers to meet demands (and create new ones). The large investment by Amazon.com, buying a 7% stake in GeoWorks – a California company that makes software for cellular phones, shows how the market has attracted different companies4.
Batteries and Chargers
Mobile telephones use radio waves to send and receive calls, this makes a portable battery a necessity – and the cell phone must include a power source. Rechargeable batteries provide the usual source of power, but most cell phones can also be attached to the cigarette lighter in a vehicle or to some other external power device.
Although the idea of radiant energy has been around not long after the discovery of electricity, new changes of “radiant energy” and advanced uses of lithium-ion batteries are gaining ground in the industrial market:
“Michael Faraday found in the 1830s that changing a magnetic field induces an electrical current in a nearby wire”; “one of the first patents registered in the 1890s by Nikola Tesla, one of Edison’s former assistants, was for “radiant energy”1.
Argonne scientists stated in the 211th meeting of The Electrochemical Society, Argonne scientists said they have adapted the ability to stabilize and increase capacity of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries by using an active component5.

Market
Various news quotes show how much the industry has grown and is expected to grow:
Accessories maker Parrot figures that while only one in six cell-phone sales now results in an accessory purchase; by 2011 the number of sales will rise to one in three. "That means that it's going to be a tug of war for accessories," says Edward Valdez, U.S. president of Parrot (company).
Best Buy late last year launched five specialty stores in New York focused exclusively on selling phones and related accessories. "Once people get used to the idea of the phones not being just for calling, they'll buy other things," says John Zittrauer, sales lead at Best Buy Mobile in Union Square in Manhattan[1].
In addition to foreign purchases of communication equipments and parts, six million cell phones and accessories will be domestically produced for Iran’s mobile phone industry, noted here on Monday, the Minister of Industries and Mines Alireza Tahmasbi2.
“With China having almost double the number of cellular subscribers we are having to shift more attention towards providing international competition”, states CEO of ANYTHINGFORMYCELL.COM: China currently has 380 million subscribers and expects another 250 million by 2010[2].

Covers and Skins
The newest trend in cell phone accessories are skins and design covers.
These decals can be made of hard plastic or in the newer market adhesive-backed vinyl pieces. These vinyl skins can be ordered on many websites and come pre-cut to fit your cell phone or even another electronic device. There exist two different types of vinyl material, calendared or cast, with the latter being more expensive. In short, calendared vinyl is expected to only be used for short durations while cast vinyl is used on a more long term basis. Calendared vinyl also tends to shrink in the heat, and fade in color. On the other hand, cast vinyl can cure all of these problems, yet costs up to 250% more (which still is a very cheap total cost). While the technology of these adhesive-backed skins continues to improve, the most up to date technology comes from 3M. The company has manufactured a cast vinyl product that they call "Controltac". This vinyl cover maintains a more glossy look and provides an air release channel that prevents bubbles during placement.
