Strategy Analytics have named have rated Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) Live! as the number one portal, in new report they have published. They tested the portal over criteria including usability, download speeds, and ease of purchase.
So here’s your opportunity – what do YOU think of the Vodafone Live! portal – with the number of subs that Vodafone has, and the fact we have a UK contingent reading IntoMobile, it’s your chance to let us know what you think of it!
On a related note, if you think portals have had their day, and apps are where it’s at, likewise, let us know …. right, now where’s the shortcode to download the Knight Rider videos I was posting about …….!

Hi there,
I’m a heavy heavy mobile web junky from the UK. Over here we have a huge trend where more and more people start using offportal sites for infotainment and search. There are some great UK grown implementations:
Search: http://taptu.mobi
Portal: http://m.mippin.com
Flirting: http://wap.flirtomatic.com
Of course the operators are still going strong, but Vodafone live! is certainly no where near as good as Planet3 from Three.
Just my take
(and yes I’m a Strategy Analyst as well)
Hi,
me again. I just figured out how to add custom feeds to mippin. I did one for IntoMobile. Check it out:
