PC web-based applications instantly optimized for all mobile devices

10 November 2008: Today Wapple is unveiling Wapple Architect™, which enables developers to quickly mobilize existing PC web applications and create new mobile services that integrate existing data and content; and be 100% confident that they will work on every mobile device - from the latest iPhone and G1 Smart phone to the earliest basic handsets.

“Architect is a ground breaking technology that integrates at the very heart of an existing web application, unlike transcoding systems,” explains Rich Holdsworth, CTO at Wapple.

Only 50% of traditional websites can be viewed via mobile, the other 50% provide a poor user experience because they have not been designed for mobile devices.

GeoSIM, the specialist international SIM card supplier has introduced flat rate call charges and free incoming calls to beat the “Euro Tariff” making savings in the region of 40% for mobile calls within Europe.

Over the last 18 months the major mobile networks have been forced to reduce their call charges for making and receiving calls within the European Union (EU) with the introduction of the “Euro Tariff”.  Although call costs have dropped, using a Global SIM card or International SIM card can still make significant savings within Europe, but especially outside the EU.

GeoSIM has introduced what could be termed the "Euro Tariff beater".  GeoSIM users can now call between any European countries for 25 pence per minute. Combined with the flat rate, receiving calls is free all over Europe, meaning callers make significant savings when calling for business or pleasure.

Actix helps create ‘lighter bits’ over mobile broadband airwaves

Actix capacity and cost solutions lead the way in supporting cost effective growth of mobile broadband
              
London, 5 November 2008 - Actix, the leading supplier of Network Status Management (NSM) systems to mobile networks, has revealed how new automated solutions can support the enormous growth in mobile broadband at much cost per data bit, helping create ‘lighter bits’ in the mobile broadband airwaves. 

With the advent of LTE technology, mature operators will be left with at least three overlaying Radio Access Networks (RAN) to manage - 2G, 3G and 3.9/4G networks. A large portion of the delivery cost of every bit is RAN-related, and the challenging economics of mobile broadband will enforce the need for a much sharper focus on delivery cost per data bit if operators are to remain profitable.
