It's the 3G issue with UMTS 2100 being international, while Cingular rides the UMTS 1900 bus. That sucks. |

That's the drawback; at present anything within that frequency is allocated for satellite phone or military bandwidth. The FCC has made reasonable promises to free up additional spectrum in the 2100 MHz band. Probably that's the reason why T-Mobile is waiting until next year for that vanwagon. |

Medical Hi-Tech News
VeriChip Corporation announced that Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey, the largest health insurer in the state, has agreed to a two-year pilot program of VeriChip's VeriMed Patient Identification System in conjunction with Hackensack University Medical Center and its physicians. In this new test program, participating patients suffering from chronic diseases would be provided with the VeriChip implantable microchip, to provide emergency room staff easy access to those patients' medical information, as well as to help avoid costly or serious medical errors.
Under this trial, participating Horizon BCBSNJ members with chronic illnesses will receive VeriChip's FDA-approved, human-implantable Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) microchips inserted just under the skin of their right tricep. Each patient's unique 16-digit identifier found within the microchip will then tie into their individual electronic medical record stored within the VeriMed Patient Registry accessible by Hackensack University Medical Center's physicians. Each record will contain vital information related to the patient's condition, family contacts, lab test data, and pharmacy records helping make the difference between life and death during an emergency.
"This two-year collaboration is a milestone for VeriMed and for our implantable identification technology marking the first time a health insurer has sponsored such a program," stated Kevin McLaughlin, Chief Executive Officer, VeriChip Corporation.
For more information on VeriMed, please contact 1-800-970-CHIP or email info@verichipcorp.com.

I am with a P900 on t-mobile. But I also had a T630 on t-mob. Works very good. Call quality is outstanding.

World's First WiFi Phones for Skype
Skype, the global Internet communications company, today announced collaboration with hardware partners to deliver the first WiFi phones for Skype software, making Internet calling on the move a reality. By enabling consumers to make Internet calls without a computer, Skype is freeing people from their computers and saving them money.
"We want to give people the freedom to move around while talking and have access to Skype wherever they are - whether in front of a computer or while moving around the home or office," said Stefan Oberg, General Manager Hardware for Skype. "Now people can make wireless Internet calls and enjoy the great Skype cost savings and sound quality free of a computer."
WiFi phones are perfect to use with the WiFi access points in most homes, offices or campuses. With Skype software pre-loaded and an intuitive interface, Skype WiFi phones are easy to use and offer the freedom of Internet calling without being tied to a computer. With these WiFi phones, consumers can make Skype calls from open access points anywhere in the world at no cost or to traditional landlines and mobile phones at very low rates.
Skype software enables Internet calling on the four WiFi phones announced today:
— Belkin WiFi Phone for Skype (F1PP000GN-SK);
— Edge-Core WiFi Phone for Skype (WM4201);
— NETGEAR WiFi Phone for Skype (SPH101); and,
— SMC Wi-Fi Phone for Skype (WSKP100).
The user interface and functionality available on these new WiFi phones is as familiar and enjoyable as using Skype on a computer. Skype users now have the ability to take Skype Contacts with them and see who's available to talk.
The easy to use devices come with everything built-in to connect to Skype via any personal, business or free public WiFi access point that does not require browser authentication. The phones are extremely easy to set-up and use with automatic synchronization to a Skype account and contacts. The devices support common WiFi encryption protocols including WEP, WPA, and WPA2 with PSK support.
Combining the powerful communications functions of Skype with the power of mobility, the new Skype Certified WiFi phones will all be available in Q3 2006, from the Skype store at skype.com/store.

Mobile 365 Powers SMS Service for SKYPE
Enables 100 Million Skype Users to Send SMS Messages From PC to Mobile Phones Around the World.
Mobile 365, the global leader in mobile messaging and data services, today announced that is has been chosen to provide SMS services to Skype.
With the addition of SMS messaging via Mobile 365's global delivery network, Skype users can keep in touch by sending SMS messages to mobile subscribers anywhere in the world. Mobile 365 is at the forefront of mobile interoperability messaging and the distribution of premium content and value- added services and is the exclusive partner for Skype in China.
"Skype chose to work with Mobile 365 not only because of its unrivalled global SMS reach, but also because of its ability to access difficult, but highly important markets such as China and India," said Michael Jackson, Director, Paid Products, Skype. "As a global partner, Mobile 365 offers both service reliability and availability, using multiple routes to each destination, enabling us to deliver messages with speed, quality, and ultimately, cost effectively."
With this new service, Skype users can send an SMS to a mobile phone directly from their keyboard. The service is quick and simple to use, and features a straightforward pricing plan; users pay using their existing Skype Credit. For example, a Skype user can now contact a friend who is offline, via a mobile message, and arrange a Skype call, thus extending Skype's reach beyond the PC.
When a Skype user sends a message, Skype distributes the message via Mobile 365's global inter-operator network to over 60 countries across the world. Mobile 365 accommodates high traffic volumes via its upgraded platform, which recently benefited from a $15 million investment, further enabling the network to reliably deliver messages into over 180 countries worldwide.
Gino Picasso, CEO of Mobile 365 comments, "Skype is leading the way in global communications and we are delighted to have been chosen as a strategic partner in their quest to revolutionize the way consumers utilize SMS. Skype needed a global partner that is able to provide connectivity into rapidly growing regions including China and India."
As Mobile 365 is the only international aggregator with a local presence and premium connectivity into China and India (with over 500 million, and growing, mobile subscribers combined) it is well placed to help Skype deploy value-added services to its users, via Premium SMS, thus opening new revenue streams in such lucrative emerging markets. Picasso said, "We expect to build upon our SMS delivery and expand our product offerings with Skype for the global marketplace." |

O2, Manx Telecom, Lucent Technologies, and QUALCOMM today announced they are conducting a third-generation (3G) UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) and HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) field trial using 900 MHz spectrum on the Isle of Man. During the trial, which began yesterday, the companies can leverage this lower frequency to extend UMTS voice and HSDPA data coverage and are investigating and evaluating the potential benefits of deploying UMTS at 900 MHz as compared to 2100 MHz.
As part of this trial, Lucent is providing its UMTS/HSDPA base station products developed for the 900 MHz spectrum band, and QUALCOMM is providing test terminals based on the Mobile Station Modem (MSM) MSM6280 chipset, which includes the RFR6275 and RTR6275 radio frequency integrated circuits. Deploying UMTS/HSDPA technology in 900 MHz spectrum can help mobile operators cost-effectively deliver UMTS/HSDPA services because the lower frequency provides a significant increase in the coverage area of a base station and, potentially, enables better signal penetration for in-building coverage.
"UMTS 900 may help solve the 3G coverage issues in Europe, since providing full coverage at 2100 MHz is very expensive," said Dave Williams, group CTO for O2. "Working with Lucent, we hope to demonstrate how UMTS 900 can complement deployments at 2100 MHz, improve coverage, lower capital expenses and improve the customer's experience."
On Nov. 1, 2005, O2, Manx Telecom and Lucent launched the first commercial HSDPA network service in Europe on the Isle of Man. This commercial network, deployed at 2100 MHz spectrum, will be used during the trial to benchmark against the 900 MHz field trial. The handover quality and experience between these two frequency bands also will be a key focus for the trial.
"We are really excited to partner with O2 and Manx Telecom to demonstrate the benefits that UMTS 900 affords," said Andy Williams, president, Lucent Technologies Europe. "This demonstrates Lucent's flexibility for providing a wide range of frequencies to meet all of our customer requirements."
"QUALCOMM is pleased to demonstrate our technology leadership in the 900 MHz band with our UMTS chipset solutions," said Enrico Salvatori, vice president and general manager for QCT Europe. "The benefits to operators of deploying in this frequency are clear, and we are confident that these trials will help to drive widespread adoption of UMTS."
