A new world order coming in mobile handsets?

By ⋅ October 29, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Nokia the giant that is in a slow-motion fall off the throne is still the biggest, but so far noone really has seen what will stop the fall. SonyEricsson, a mainstay in the top 5 historically, is gone from the top 5. Apple is actually in absolute numbers making it on to the top 5 [...]

Why mobile cloud computing is not hype

By ⋅ October 1, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Mobile cloud computing. Another hype term? Well, lately I have realised I use more services in the Cloud even from my phone. Mail is obvious, but lately also access to all my workfiles in the Cloud. I had a rela life/hard experience of this last Firday when my hard drive on my MacBookPro crashed while [...]

This was a milestone week for the mobile content industry

By ⋅ May 15, 2009 ⋅ 2 comments

“It’s Friday – I’m in love!”, The Cure This week has been pretty mind-blowing to be honest. Two pretty major announcements made from two behemoths in the industry. First out was Vodafone “outing” itself as a smart pipe nothing more and nothing less. Let’s hope the walk matches the talk. Your humble blogger has been a proponent [...]

Got AppStore strategy? Do you feel lucky punk?

By ⋅ April 30, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s been a while due to lack of time. The main focus for the last weeks has been the launch of a new company and product – Souldate, mobile dating with positioning. Dating is well suited for mobile. With positioning it takes it to the next level. Anyway, now you know why I have been [...]

App Store – the new black?

By ⋅ March 18, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

In the aftermath of MWC and the build up to CTIA you would certainly think App Stores are the new black. Apple set off this me-too avalanche of announcements. After Apples app store we have seen Blackberry app world , Android Market, Microsoft\’s Marketplace and Nokia\’s Ovi etc. Will this be a game changer? Maybe. [...]

Are mobile operators becoming irrelevant?

By ⋅ February 17, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

I don’t know about you, but in my quest to develop new services and revenue streams I spend amazingly little time talking with mobile operators these days. I say amazingly since I thought I would spend more time with them, since they are such an essential part of the ecosystem. I see that as a [...]

Bebo pushing mobile

By ⋅ February 12, 2009 ⋅ One comment

Will 2009 be the year when the established web communities make it big in mobile? We read in Mobilenews and other sources listed below about Bebo‘s push to reach more mobile users. In addition to that we have the rumours that Facebook and Nokia will get cosy with each other as most recetly reported by [...]

2009 what-ifs

By ⋅ January 6, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

I do not find it very useful to extrapolate trends into the new year and making more or less safe bets about what will happen. I am not saying they are bad. A few good ones are found at Mobhappy and MEF. For my own businesses though I find it much more useful to run [...]

Nokia come with music – what's in it for me?

By ⋅ October 7, 2008 ⋅ 2 comments

…said the sales guy/gal in the Carphone Warehouse near you. It is one of the big pieces in the industry now. Nokia try to push iTunes off the throne. Nokia is pissing off the mobile operators and as a response Nokia comes with music is not let into the retail distribution of the big operators [...]
