Orange is not in line with Vodafone and AT&T

June 25, 2009

Delay in femto deployments as a result of technical, operational, and economical issues. Many vendors may disappear if not already engaged since introducing a new technology will be challenging during a global recession. Case of diverging opinion among carriers! Jury is out on the success of the femtocells.

Vodafone and AT&T improving in-home mobile reception to boost revenues

June 24, 2009

More and more people are starting to realize that mobile phones are much more practical than the old fashioned "land line phone". With a mobile phone you are always reachable and a mobile phone has a built-in address book unlike the land line where you have to look up the number (on your mobile phone!) before you can dial it.  Given the almost limitless number of minutes that cell phone plans provide these days, it seems to make sense to abandon the land line. However one problem remains: the cell phone reception inside homes is not always perfect.
