Tomorrow: Jay Fenton reviews the Teleware Private Mobile Network

Monday, September 29th, 2008

You remember the Private Mobile Network Unit that I took to the Maldives?

Well Jay Fenton has produced a brilliant review that’s coming our way tomorrow morning.

Jay is one of the world’s foremost experts on telephony. And that sort of thing. It’s actually hard to specifically identify where his skills begin and end. Yes he knows telephony back to front, but he’s also a bit of a programming genius too (he’s the guy who knocked up a Symbian blog editor for me in 60 minutes).

Jay is the chap mentioned now and again by his colleague Dan Lane in our weekly Mobile Industry Review Show video. (They both work at Howler Tech). In fact, I think Jay is mentioned this week. We’ve had him on one of the podcasts a while ago — we’ll need to get him on the video soon.

I was delighted when Jay said he’d be able to take the time to review the PMN and give us his perspective. Standby for the piece tomorrow.

Should you be fired for sending 12,000 private texts on a work phone?

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

UPI reports that the Italian Supreme Court isn’t having any of Telecom Italia’s attempts to fire one of it’s employees.

Apparently the employee knocked up 12,000 private text messages from his work phone. He didn’t have an unlimited messaging package on the handset, obviously — as Telecom Italia were billed more than $2,000 for this.

It was back in the year 2000 though. Almost a decade ago. Between the months of January and October.

So the chap keeps his job, I suspect. I wonder if he’ll still get to keep a work phone?
