Andy Munarriz, top chap at HulloMail, dropped in the other week to say hi and tell us about their rather nifty and revolutionary voicemail system. Andy’s rather passionate about voicemail — and whilst HulloMail offers you the standard voicemail-by-phone features, it’s got one huge, huge difference. You now own your voicemail. Instead of messages residing [...]
Why o2′s Bluebook wasn’t nominated in our awards
We didn’t nominate o2′s Bluebook mobile address book backup service in our recent awards for a number of reasons. All discussed in this week’s 6th (and bonus) episode of the MIR Show: (By the way, here’s Ben’s original review of the service.)
MIR Show – Week 44 – Exclusive! Victoria & David Beckham at the Symbian Smartphone Show
Yes, we were the envy of the world’s entertainment media the other week when we scooped the news that Victoria and David Beckham, fresh from LA, were seen taking in the sights at the Symbian Smartphone Show. Dan Lane and Ben Smith were on the scene with me behind the camera to capture the joy. [...]
MIR Show – Week 44 – Kerry Ritz of Palringo interviewed
In this segment, the MIR Show team interview Kerry Ritz, CEO of Palringo — who shows off some rather nifty location based instant messaging services. So good, that during the interview, James Whatley got out his handset and started downloading it. Have a look..
MIR Show – Week 44 – All About Symbian, Smaato and Scalado
Focus hasn’t really been on Symbian recently, what with all the G1 and related Android gubbins going on. However I’d like you to take a bit of time out to see just how shit Symbian, Nokia, the whole shebang is — at the moment… and how good it could be. I arrived at the Symbian [...]
MIR Show – Week 44 – T-Mobile UK G1 Android launch
We’re at the T-Mobile UK launch of the G1 Android device. We’ve interviews with some of the operator’s executives at the launch — and, guest host, Ed Hodges, tackles James Whatley.

MIR Show – Week 43 – Ewan Spence on the Symbian Foundation
In today’s segment, we grab a be-kilted Ewan Spence of All About Symbian and ask what he thinks of the Symbian Smartphone Show — which segways into a monologue on the state of Symbian today. Although Ewan takes a positive viewpoint, I was occasionally scowling behind the camera.. I think Symbian need to get wit [...]
We talk with Simon Ainslie, CEO of Nokia UK
Simon Ainslie, CEO of Nokia UK answers our questions about their new Comes With Music service, launched here in London last week. Here’s the streaming video: Now, we’ve changed things around somewhat. Most weeks, we’re producing a MIR Show around 30 minutes — sometimes as long as 35 minutes. Whilst we’re getting tons of downloads [...]

Hello, hello! We are most definitely BACK this week — back in London after the international shows we’ve been publishing over the last two weeks. The team is in one place. In fact they’re positively beaming with excitement. In this week’s show: – We visit the LG Renoir launch and take a look at the [...]
Heading to Brighton tomorrow
We’re heading down to the launch of the social media cafe (the Tuttle Club) in Brighton tomorrow morning. We’ll be filming the MIR show from the cafe, the beach. Plans are afoot to try and get some footage of James Whatley on a donkey. I’d pay good money for that. If you’re in the area, [...]
