With the market saying 'no' to Nokia's Ovi Store, what do you think can be done to change this?If you’re a true telecoms geek (and lets face it, if you’re reading MIR, you’re well on your way) then you’ve thought, nay dreamed, about having your own private mobile network. Even for the non-techies amongst us (I’ve been told there are some), the allure of not having to pay any money to the Vodafones and T-Mobiles of this world, and to be in control of your own destiny (at least as far as signal strength is concerned) is very appealing. Can new technology from Teleware make that a reality? Read on for our in-depth review. (more…)

Review: Teleware PMN Rapid Deployment Unit (RDU)
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008Tomorrow: 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.
Private Mobile Network: First look!
Thursday, July 3rd, 2008Now I’ve got the Private Mobile Network from Teleware in my hands, I’ve been putting it through it’s paces.
Whilst it’s rather complex (bordering on arousing, for a geek like me) technology, it’s actually very simple to operate.
Want a mobile network? Heh! Simple! You just switch it on. Wait a few minutes for it to finish it’s boot sequence and bish bash bosh, you’re live with your own mobile network.
There’s been a significant amount of mail in from people asking for pictures and video. Video is coming shortly but in the meantime, there are the photos.
No wonder it scared the chaps at the Maldives Customs counter… it does look rather futuristic.
