AT&T Wireless screwing up portability

AT&T Wireless screwing up portability 12/05/2003 01:53 PM
Nobody said that this number portability thing was going to be easy, but apparently switches involving AT&T Wireless have been going so poorly that the FCC just sent them a letter warning them to get their act together and demanding to know why there have been so many problems. AT&T Wireless is admitting that as many as 60% of port attempts have failed, and News.com is reporting that some customers ditching AT&T Wireless have been waiting almost two weeks for number transfers to go through. As MobileTracker notes, part of the problem could be that AT&T Wireless was the only cell carrier that didn't hire TSI to handle all this stuff for them.

portability 10/31/2003 01:39 AM
We'd thought that the cellphone companies had stopped trying to weasel out implementing number portability after a Federal appeals court threw out their lawsuit against the FCC back in June, but apparently they hadn't quite given up yet. AT&T Wireless and Cingular just tried again in court to stall the new rules by arguing that the FCC hadn't been clear enough about how number portability applies to landlines as well. On Wednesday this second lawsuit was also thrown out, though now it looks like AT&T Wireless and Cingular might be trying get Congress to intervene and obtain a delay. Read [Via MobileTracker]...

How to Explain Everything

How to Explain Everything 05/22/2004 12:58 AM
Part 1: Decisions, Decisions. Are you going to eat out tonight or cook at home? Will you watch a TV program or read a book? Will you study something tonight or will you go out with friend? Do you go out every night or do you save up for a car? Do you get into a relationship or keep things casual? All of these questions are the subject of economics. Do you just flip a coin every time you need to make a decision? Sometimes? Only when there's really no difference between the choices to you? How do you balance unlimited desires with limited resources? In the big picture, economics is the study of choices. While many think of it as the study of making money, it isn't. It's just that most choices hinge around money because of what money is, but that's jumping too far ahead. If you want to understand how the world works -- how you and everyone else make decisions -- economics provides a lot of insight. This is the first in a series.

Ever since switching jobs a while back, one of the questions I'm asked most often by co-workers and friends I don't see that often is... What exactly is your job, anyway? The funny thing is that I've never had a short answer for it. Instead, I have to rattle off a medium sized list of loosely related things I end up getting involved in. And people seem generally puzzled at first but eventually say, "oh... that's kind of cool." Reading...

DSL Portability Comes To The UK?

DSL Portability Comes To The UK? 08/02/2004 08:43 PM
One of the most annoying things about a broadband connection is that, unlike with a phone connection, it's often quite a pain to switch providers -- sometimes involving extended periods without service, multiple installs, and completely redoing work that's already been done. In an attempt to show that they really can regulate themselves, and don't need government officials bothering them, a bunch of ISPs in the UK have come up with a voluntary plan to make it easier for UK DSL customers to switch providers (mostly) seamlessly. Of course, it helps when there are a lot of providers and they're all using the same wholesaler, as is the case in the UK.
