Comment They often rely on specialised technology being deployed - such as dual-mode handsets - and the proliferation of new networks to increase coverage, either building in pico/femto cells or wi-fi access points.
[21 Sep 2007]
Comment This is one reason, some believe, why dual-mode handsets have been slow to appear. Jo Best says it's the pact between these two tech heavyweights that really makes the iPhone stand out. When the iPhone was shown to the mob at Macworld, industry...

Comment Mobile VoIP has been garnering more than its fair share of headlines with a flurry of announcements from BT about its Fusion service and from handset manufacturers on the latest dual-mode phones but actual real world deployments of such systems...
