I participated in an array of superb briefings last week at Mobile World Congress. The issue of the ‘data crunch’ was never far from the conversation.

So, we start with the premise that Halifax would like you to know about their travel money services. No problem. [...]
The Nokia Facebook Phone: Complete integration of Facebook into the OS

BlackBerry Messenger’s barcode creator for Facebook
I’ve been taking a look at the new BlackBerry Messenger (“BBM”) app for Facebook. It’s due to become available at the end of the week — and it’s a piece of genius. Whilst the rest of the market is obsessing over the iPhone, BlackBerry is quietly continuing to shift millions of units. 20% of the [...]
Screencast demo: Vodafone 360 photo sharing limitations
A lot of people have been asking me to demonstrate exactly what the problem is with Vodafone 360′s photo sharing facilities. Or, to be frank, LACK of photo sharing facilities. I created a screencast for you to demonstrate. You can watch it here.

Last week I covered the basics of the INQ1 now I am going to be looking in depth at the applications in particular the social networking ones. Facebook Let’s be honest, this is probably the reason why you bought this phone. When you first start the phone you are asked to pop in your Facebook [...]
