Webinar on Holistic approach to Mobile Broadband Traffic Management *tomorrow* Top
A quick heads-up that I'm doing a webinar tomorrow morning (Thursday 21st) on holistic approaches to mobile broadband traffic management. I'll be covering various themes around Net Neutrality, the need for radio-, location- and device-awareness in mobile policy management, and the challenges of "silo" solutions such as video compression operating without understanding the user's and network's context. I'll also be covering the role of what I'm terming a "Congestion API" as a goal to work towards - an eventual win/win/win for user, operator and content/app providers. Sign-up details are here: http://bit.ly/9q9vLk Disclosure: this webinar is being conducted in conjunction with (and sponsored by) a client of mine, CCPU
 
On the EDGE again Top
I can't quite remember when I last depended on 2.5G EDGE to connect my notebook to the Internet, must have been a couple of years ago, perhaps back in 2008, as 3G has become pretty ubiquitous at the places I went. But recently in Thailand, where 3G has not yet quite arrived and the hotel Wi-Fi agonizingly slow at times, it was much better than the alternative. Fortunately, the 2G network at the place worked really well and with throughput speeds of around 250-300 kbit/s, I was actually quite surprised that I could actually get my work done with little pain. Not as fast as with a 3G connection by far, but the delay times before pages started to be displayed and emails downloaded were still bearable. So what's the message here? Perhaps it's "don't write it off just yet, 2.5G still has some uses now and then beyond small screen web browsing".
