Another Delay For MasterCard Vader
Mini-Bust 10/30/2003 12:38 AM
In what has to be the last of the delays we've seen for the Mastercard exclusive Gentle Giants Darth Vader mini-bust, it looks like the day holders of the Galactic Rewards Mastercards have to wait at least a couple more weeks before they can pony up 7,500 points for a Vader. The often delayed "order date" has been moved again, this time to "mid-November". If you have the card, you can check on the progress of this yourself at galacticrewards.com. Thanks to Bob Giordano for the update.

Portugal's Wi-Fi Initiatives

Portugal's Wi-Fi Initiatives 01/09/2004 09:52 PM
In response to our recent post about how many APs per student universities hang, Joao Nuno Castro kindly sent along a chart listing 70 universities in Portugal and how many APs they use: The average is 100 users per AP, but the numbers range from as low as nine to as high as 624, though most on the high end are closer to 150. That wide range may be tied to coverage and overall student population, not necessarily due to some ratio an IT manager has in mind. Castro works for the Innovation and Knowledge Society Unit in the Portuguese Government and offered up some information about Portugal's interest in Wi-Fi. Portugal has an Electronic University (e-U) project that aims to build networks on university campuses and link them together. Portugal seems really aggressive in encouraging Wi-Fi network development. Read more about the e-U initiative here. Portugal is also part of the Trans European Research and Education Networking Association which plans to enable roaming for students and researchers between member universities. Portugal is helping to pioneer the infrastructure that will enable roaming in 2005, Castro said....

Credit card and payments company MasterCard International Inc. said on Tuesday that it is partnering with NameProtect Inc., an online brand protection service, to combat online identity theft and a black market in stolen credit card numbers. The two companies will combine their efforts against phishing scams and online identity thieves, taking "a more aggressive approach" to cyberscams that affect consumers and companies. MasterCard will have access to data from NameProtect's technology, which can search and filter large volumes of Internet content to find online scams. The companies will also work with law enforcement to shut down Internet sites and tools used by identity thieves, the companies said in a joint statement.

MBNA Mastercard Exclusive Gentle Giants
Mini-Bust 11/19/2003 04:33 PM
I really can't remember the last time a promotion that I know is supposed to help the Star Wars brand has gone as wrong as the one Lucasfilm is doing with MBNA right now. In what seems like a string of problems, a quick check of the official MBNA Galactic Rewards website will show you, as it now has been for about three weeks, that they are completely and hopeless offline. Never mind that frequent calls to them have now turned to comical as they now are gun-shy of telling callers the next promised date it will be online again. And forget about finding out when they will make the cool exclusive Gentle Giants Vader Mini-Bust available to us as each person you talk to will give you a different date, or no date in some cases. And on top of that, the last time I was able to see the promotion page for this it said they had just 100 of them available, and sometime in December they would go up from 7,500 points to 10,000 points each. I'm taking odds it will be December before they ever get the darn site back online. If you have missed the history on this, you can get up to speed with a quick MBN A search.

New Broadband Wireless Initiatives
Around the Globe

New Broadband Wireless Initiatives
Around the Globe 09/14/2004 02:51 PM
A few announcements have been made over the last couple of days about new broadband wireless deployments. Two come from Alvarion, including one where Telekom Serbia will build networks to support voice and data in suburban and rural Serbia. Closer to home, Alvarion also announced that its gear will supply a broadband wireless backbone network in Maryland, connecting counties that are part of a project connecting libraries and supplying mobile wireless for public safety workers. In other broadband wireless news, Redline said that its equipment will provide backhaul for a wireless network being built in a region of Manitoba, Canada. Wi-LAN, a Calgary, Canada-based supplier, said that its products are being used by various customers, including a large ISP, in Malaysia. AirRover Wi-Fi, a company based in Baton Rouge, La., signed an agreement in principal to build city-wide mesh Wi-Fi networks in a couple of cities in the Philippines. It must be refreshing for vendors to be making these kinds of sales, even before they are actually selling certified WiMax gear. There has been a fear that customers would delay buying decisions as they wait for certified WiMax gear. Perhaps the buzz around WiMax has generally helped to legitimatize broadband wireless so that some customers decide it will pay off for them to deploy now rather than wait for standard gear....

Self Assessment

Self Assessment 11/04/2003 01:57 AM
Yup, it's that time of year again. Ever since I've graduated from college and worked full-time, the end of the year has meant that I need to set aside some time to fill out forms as part of a formal review process. The idea being that I assess myself, my manager assesses me, and my peers provide feedback. This all gets stirred together by my manager and then results in a rating of some sort and possibly an annual raise....
