Crickee: Send Free Unlimited SMS From Your Phone And PC
Finding the Crickee service was a bonus today. I hardly ever look at my Technorati inlinks, but my eye was drawn to the ‘Crickee Blog’ link as it looked like spam. I was pleasantly surprised to not only find that I was ‘Crickees ‘Crush Of The Week‘, but to also discover that Crickee [...]
28Dec2006 | Everton | 5 comments | ContinuedAdvice Needed - Should I Get a BlackBerry Pearl?
I’ve decided that after over 6 years with Vodafone, it’s time to leave.
I haven’t really been paying attention to the price plans from other networks as the price plan that I had from Vodafone worked fine for me - 350 mins and a £60 allowance for data and SMSs which worked out to 500 [...]

In what has to be one of the most predictable developments, Vodafone Germany have announced that from 2007 they will be blocking VoIP calls. It won’t be long before other operators follow I think.
I think the operators are making a big mistake here and trying to ban VoIP is a bad business plan. [...]
I’ve Given Up On My 6630
I had an absolutely nightmare day with my 6630. It has just got worse and worse lately, randomly turning itself off or while I’m in a call ’scrambling’ the audio so it sounds like someone is trying to jam my signal.
Vodafone are sending me a Nokia 6680 as a replacement so it will be [...]

Mobile Banking Service Launched In The UK
When I worked at Vodafone I always thought that the banking institutions would drive the real initiatives in mobile payments and its seems like I was right.
Today a new JV MobileATM, between IT firm Morse and the Link cashpoint network, has launched a mobile banking service across the UK. The service will allow [...]
