Novatel Wireless and The Carphone Warehouse have signed an agreement for the distribution of the Novatel Wireless Intelligent Mobile Hotspot 2352 throughout UK on T-Mobile.
Novatel Wireless Intelligent Mobile Hotspot 2352 is the industry’s first intelligent mobile hotspot, a new category of mobile broadband device supporting a rich application environment for customers. Unlike previous wireless router solutions that require an external broadband modem and serve only to provide connectivity, the Novatel Wireless Intelligent Mobile Hotspot 2352 supports GPS and creates an easily portable, personal cloud of high-speed Internet connectivity that can be shared between multiple users and up to five Wi-Fi enabled devices such as laptops, MIDs, UMPCs, smartphones, cameras, gaming devices or portable media players.
Now this might all seem very familiar, and that’s for two reasons: (1) I’ve mentioned the Novatel 2352 before (here for example), and (2) you can win one of the Novatel 2352′s in our comp here!
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career
when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has
now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the
next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas!
He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently
became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years
when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to
'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make
your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device)
isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question
of why you continue to use it...
His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and
infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the
occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience
in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with
regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
