Mobile Phones Shouldn't Be TVs


Mobile Phones Shouldn't Be TVs 11/17/2003 05:45 AM
In the past few months three major mobile phone makers (Sony, Samsung and Nokia) have announced plans to add TV tuners to their mobile phones and one major carrier (Sprint PCS) has launched a painfully slow (2 frames per second!) streaming TV option for some of their subscribers. The whole thing reminds me of the hype around portable TVs that were popular for a week or two in the eighties as the second coming of the walkman system. The idea was that if you liked carrying around your radio, wouldn't you like to carry around your TV as well? The answer turned out to be a big fat no, and most of the people who bought the TVs realized they never actually needed to watch TVs when they were out and about - because they were out and about doing something. So, why is the industry making the same mistake? Douglas Rushkoff thinks it's even worse, because having the mobile phone industry focusing on silly things like adding television to phones means they're spending less attention on improving the real reason people buy mobile phones: to have good voice calls. All the money and effort being spent on adding TVs no one wants could be better spent improving the mobile phone networks. He also has an interesting categorization of screen device "scales": inch, foot, yard. Inch devices (PDAs, phones) are for personal content or small bits of content - not for massive data retrieval. Foot devices (TVs, monitors) work as well for data input and data retrieval - and can be shared by just a few people at the same time. Yard devices (movie screens, big screen TVs, whiteboards) are better designed for one-to-many broadcast communication. He points out that realizing the basic size of the screen suggests the type of applications it's good for - and focusing too much on applications out of the sensible realm doesn't make sense.

Let Them Eat Mobile Phones


Let Them Eat Mobile Phones 09/22/2004 09:15 PM
Reuters is reporting that African leaders want to buy a bunch of mobile phones because "there are more telephones in Manhattan than in all Africa." Apparently, if you just add mobile phones to a bunch of poor countries, all else will be solved. I've taken a deeper look at this story over at TheFeature, where I compare the situation to the famous "cargo cults" of the South Pacific in World War II, where a confusion over the big picture (and cause and effect) led groups of people to think they could solve all their problems by mimicking the basic actions of others, but not getting to the root causes of the situation. I do think that technology can be a huge help to developing nations, but ad hoc solutions to "just add technology X" are never going to help unless the real issues are addressed first.

Doctors Want Their Mobile Phones


Doctors Want Their Mobile Phones 07/01/2004 03:41 PM
There have been some questions lately on why exactly hospitals ban mobile phones. The common reasoning, of course, is that the phones may interfere with medical equipment -- but most medical equipment is pretty well shielded, and there are lots of other items, such as emergency service radios that would seem likely to cause a lot more interference, but don't. So, now, many doctors in the UK are standing up and saying the ban on mobile phones should be dropped. They point out that risks are minimal, and it would make their lives much easier. They also point out (probably quite accurately) that they're positive plenty of people are wandering around hospitals all the time with mobile phones turned on in their pockets, and they don't see why they should be banned. Of course, there are other reasons for keeping mobile phones away from doctors -- such as the fact that they can pick up germs. Good thing there's now a sterilizing phone charger.

Seems telemarketers have largely ignored the do not call list. With nearly 65 million people who have signed up for do not call 429,000 have received at least 1 call and that's just the people that reported it. Seems the FCC could cash in if they would go out and collect the fines but some wonder if they have the teeth.

One advantage of living in Hawaii is most telemarketers don't bother but those that do usually call about 4am and when you get done screaming at them asking them if they know what time it is you never get a call back. [CNN Money]


The Latest Techie Complaints


The Latest Techie Complaints 04/15/2004 01:02 PM
So what does a techie have to complain about these days? It what must have been a fairly cathartic column, one tech columnist just tossed a few of his tech complaints into a single column that doesn't even bother trying to tie them all together. The three big complaints: (1) every time he finds a product he likes, it gets bought by another larger company (and, he implies, the larger company then kills what he liked about the product) (2) it's increasingly difficult to actually find stuff you want on a search engine and (3) plug and play often plugs, but doesn't play. The best part, though, is his description of the inevitable phone call after the new device doesn't work: "Is your computer turned on? Are you connected using a USB or firewire cable? Do you have more than a fifth-grade education?" Something about tax day seems to bring out people's complaining nature.

01/29/2004 03:49 AM
By this point, it's pretty well known that wireless number portability didn't go so smoothly over the past couple of months. However, now the FCC has admitted the extent of the problems, saying that they've recei ved 4,750 complaints concerning number portability. Considering the total number of switchers, that's really not a huge percentage - but it still doesn't speak well to the efforts the wireless carriers put into the process. The FCC is now looking to see if any regulations were broken. Considering that many carriers were clearly dragging their feet on getting ready for this (partly as a ploy to ask for more delays), it seems likely that the FCC will fine a few carriers for screwing around when they should have been preparing (as we expected back in May). It still seems like a strategically backwards move not to have embraced something that customers clearly wanted - and which was clearly going to come sooner or later.
