Mobile Gambling Unlikely To Be In The US
Any Time Soon
04/27/2004 12:59 PM

While folks over in Europe have been pushing forward with mobile gambling, it's unlikely to come to the US any time soon. If gambling from your own computer is already forbidden, it seems unlikely that they would let anyone gamble on the go as well. Of course, the company discussed in the article is trying to initially target casinos, so that people at a casino could keep gambling on their mobile phone even if they're not on the floor. That becomes a slightly trickier situation, because they're in the casino itself already - it's just that the gambling mechanism has gone portable. Where's the boundary? What if a casino handed out a mobile gambling device instead of letting you use your own phone?

More Mobile File Sharing: This Time From
Nokia


More Mobile File Sharing: This Time From
Nokia
09/14/2004 02:55 PM
For quite some time, we've been wondering why the music industry was so excited about the money they were making from ringtones, since they all seemed to ignore the lessons they learned the past few years online: by overpricing ringtones and making them difficult to get, they were going to be taken by surprise when the "Napster for mobile phones" showed up. It appears that it's getting closer -- but the most interesting part is that the developments seem to be coming from large companies rather than a kid in a dorm room. Last week we wrote about SK Telecom's new file sharing application, and today's New Scientist reports that Nokia Research is working on their own file sharing application. They admit that it was more difficult than they expected due to the unreliable nature of mobile phone networks, but that it is possible. As the article notes, the issue (once again) isn't really technical, but how the recording industry will respond (easy to predict that one: badly). Of course, what the recording industry still doesn't seem to understand is that these applications don't go away, no matter how much they complain (and sue). The next trick, though, will be seeing how developers take the idea of P2P one step further once they realize that by adding P2P in a mobile world, it lets users do more than just swap songs.

Time Warner Still Considering Adding
Mobile Service


Time Warner Still Considering Adding
Mobile Service
06/23/2004 03:40 PM
Back in March there was talk that Time Warner might offer mobile phone service under an MVNO relationship (basically rebranding someone else's mobile phone service similar to what Virgin Mobile does). So, it's not entirely clear why it's news that they're still thinking about it, other than the fact that Reuters discovered the not-so-secret news. Still, when looked at from the perspective we discussed yesterday about how wireless fits into the "triple play" bundle, the story does become a little more interesting. While initially, it may look that cable providers aren't as well positioned to offer mobile phone service, the rise of MVNO systems could change that. Where it could get tricky, though, is that they have much less control over the technology and the support. If someone buys a bundle of Time Warner cable and a Time Warner mobile phone, they're not necessarily going to want to have to call two separate places if they need support.

Time For Flight Mode On Your Mobile

07/02/2004 01:01 PM
A few months ago, we pointed out that, thanks to a growing number of "smart phones," flight attendants were often having trouble with passengers who wanted to use the PDA functionality of their phones, but had the wireles s transmitter turned off. Unfortunately, there's no easy way for anyone to see quickly if the phone really has its wireless abilities shut off, or if the person is just saying that to keep the flight attendants off their back. So, now, the Consumer Electronics Association is trying to come up with a standard way to e asily display that a mobile phone is in "flight mode" -- where the user can make use of applications on the phone, but isn't transmitting a wireless signal. Next thing you know, they're going to need another way of indicating to everyone that the camera part of a camera phone isn't on...

daffy_phone.jpg imageFeeling pressured by various phone companies' ability to bundle cable television, internet, and cellular service to their customers, Time Warner is making noise about moving into the mobile provider market itself. Hey maybe they could buy up MCI and become MCI/Time Warner or something? I bet no one would get fired over that.

Don't except Time Warner to do much more than dip a toe in the market, though. They'll most likely end up selling rebranded service a la Virgin Mobile or MTV or my mom or whoever else is reselling services these days. And maybe they'll rape repurpose one of the Loony Tunes characters again, like they did with Roadrunner. I'm sure everyone would love to purchase sputtering cell phone coverage from Porky Pig.

Will Your Mobile Phone Be Jammed Next
Time Terrorists Attack?
05/10/2004 04:31 AM
The Associated Press is running a story saying that police in LA are experimenting with a plan to j am mobile phone communications (which seems to be a violation of federal laws) in the event of a terrorist attack. The reasoning seems to be that, because some terrorists have been using mobile phone detonated bombs, this could be a method to prevent such a bomb. Of course, the havoc caused by not allowing mobile phones to work over a large region filled with panicked people (should a terrorist attacks till occur) seems particularly dangerous. Besides, imagine just how upset people will get if this jamming system is used in a false alarm? Anyone who pushed the button when it turned out to be a false alarm would clearly be risking their job. If anything, I'd bet the public admission of this plan is more to scare off potential terrorists from using such a bomb.

For Screwing Up Mobile Music


Now It's Time To Blame The Record Lables
For Screwing Up Mobile Music
04/15/2005 12:47 PM
It was just last night that we were saying that the mobile phone operators were going to screw up the mobile music market with their greed... though we also noted that the recording industry was just as bad, and that the two of them together, guaranteed a disaster. As if on cue, News.com comes along to confirm this, with a story about how the record labels are pissed off at Steve Jobs because he won't let them raise prices or force people to buy a bad song to get a good song. Instead, of course, they want to work with the mobile carriers, "The (wireless) carriers' economics are aligned with us much better than Apple is aligned with us." By which the anonymous executive means they're both incredibly greedy and willing to sacrifice long term viability for short term profits. This is like watching a massive train wreck in incredibly slow motion.

But Think Of The Children... Gambling!


But Think Of The Children... Gambling! 07/27/2004 12:37 PM
It's good that there's a group watching out for issues concerning children and technology, but it would be nice, for once, if they could stop with their fear-mongering misleading announcements. Children's charity NCH in the UK, which is good at getting publicity for their causes, never seems to get questioned at all by the press. This is the group that put out a ridiculously misleading story blaming the internet for child porn and then produced a very carefully worded study to misleadingly suggest that 3G phones were a threat to children. Their latest piece of artwork is a report sug gesting that 11-year-olds are gambling online in the UK, but which gives no evidence to support that at all. What they did was convince one 16-year-old girl to sign up for a variety of gambling sites with a debit card and to lie about her age. She apparently got into many of them. From this, they point out that many banks will give out debit cards to people as young as 11, and thus, 11-year-olds can now gamble online. Of course, beyond convincing an underage girl to lie, the group also gives everyone the full list of online casinos where (apparently) 11-year-olds can gamble. Now, they're completely right that these sites need better age verification measures. However, stories about 11-year-olds gambling online should have a little more factual basis than a 16-year-old told to lie.
