Having divested itself of its mobile arm some years ago and stumbled somewhat with its last mobile offering, the dual-mode VoIP/cellular service BT Fusion, it could well be a bit of an uphill struggle for the incumbent to sell mobile services to consumers again. If the Telegraph is right, then this just looks Fusion by another name: without a raft of must-have devices, better pricing or at least some new services, I’m not really sure how BT thinks Fusion will fly this time around.
