Case-in-point today comes Hong Kong&#8217;s SmarTone-Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>). They&#8217;ve announced the launch of their HSPA+ network upgrade. The upgrade (in theory) brings peak network speeds of 21 Mbps.</p>
<p>Douglas Li, CEO of SmarTone-Vodafone commented on the upgrade:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;SmarTone-Vodafone will continue upgrading network speeds to 28 Mbps and 42 Mbps next year, paving the way for 80 Mbps and even higher speeds with implementation of LTE&#8230;We are firmly committed to delivering best-in-market broadband services and customers will love the difference.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Besides the groovy network upgrade, SmarTone-Vodafone has introduced 3 new mobile broadband price plans as well. The new plans are designed to meet customers&#8217; different needs. The new &#8216;Power 3&#8242; plan provides usable speeds of 2.3 Mbps, the &#8216;Power 7&#8242; offers 2.6 Mbps, and the &#8216;Power 21&#8242; plan brings speeds of 2-14 Mbps. Depending on your requirements and needs, it looks like SmarTone-Vodafone has a plan tailored for folks in Hong Kong.</p>

<p>LTE, Long Term Evolution, 4G, whatever you want to call it, was designed to be a complete IP based system. Many of you may be surprised to hear this, but when LTE became a standard, it only supported data. That&#8217;s right, 4th generation networks didn&#8217;t have an interoperable standard for voice and SMS. Several solutions have been proposed, and <a href="http://www.intomobile.com/2009/08/27/must-read-whitepaper-about-lte-in-support-of-volga-over-csfb-and-ims.html" title="Must read whitepaper about LTE: In support of VoLGA over CSFB and IMS">I&#8217;ve extended my support to VoLGA</a>, but it looks like Nokia (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=NOK" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: NOK</a>) has decided IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) will be the way going forward.</p>
<p>Who supports the decision? AT&#038;T, Orange, Telefonica (many of you know them as O2), TeliaSonera, Verizon (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VZ" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VZ</a>), Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>), Alcatel-Lucent (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=ALU" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: ALU</a>), Ericsson, Nokia Siemens Networks, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=SNE" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: SNE</a>). That&#8217;s a lot of companies. Their posse is called &#8220;<a href="http://www.nokiasiemensnetworks.com/portfolio/products/convergedcore/onevoice">One Voice Initiative</a>&#8221; and now that the big boys have all decided on a standard, progress towards getting LTE networks up and running will start to pick up. <a href="http://www.intomobile.com/2009/10/22/teliasonera-aiming-to-be-the-first-operator-in-the-world-to-launch-a-commercial-lte-network.html" title="TeliaSonera aiming to be the first operator in the world to launch a commercial LTE network">Verizon and TeliaSonera are competing</a> to see who will launch the world&#8217;s first commercial LTE network in 2010, but it&#8217;s going to quite a ways off until 4G coverage is equal to the current 3G footprint.</p>
<p>If anyone can point me (and IntoMobile readers) to a blog post or a book that explains how IMS works, that would be greatly appreciated. I&#8217;ve always avoided the standard since I thought it would never fly. Oh how wrong I am now.</p>
<p><strong>Update:</strong> The One Voice spec has been published, check it out [<a href="http://www.nokiasiemensnetworks.com/sites/default/files/document/One_Voice_Profile_0.pdf">PDF</a>] if you&#8217;re a network engineer.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m going Storm2 crazy over here! So much to talk about today with <a href=" http://www.intomobile.com/2009/10/14/blackberry-storm2-review.html">Storm2 reviews</a> popping up left, right and center. And now, I stumbled upon an official release from RIM and Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>), making the Storm2 official in seven European countries, PLUS South Africa! Of course, no exact pricing launch dates were specified in the release, but I can tell you that the UK and Ireland will get their paws on it first&#8230; Followed by Germany, Netherlands and Spain. All of these launches are lets say, &#8216;coming soon&#8217;. France, Italy and South Africa will receive the Storm2 &#8216;in time for Christmas&#8217;.</p>
<p>For more, you can check out the whole release at <a href="http://www.marketwire.com/press-release/Research-In-Motion-NASDAQ-RIMM-1059904.html" target="_blank">MarketWire</a>.</p>

If we start seeing the same kind of promotional materials show up at Vodafone, it&#8217;s safe to say the Storm 2 (or Odin, if you&#8217;re feeling nostalgic) will at least be announced before the end of the week.  Best Buy might not get the <a href="http://www.intomobile.com/2009/10/01/blackberry-storm-2-makes-appearance-in-best-buy-inventory-system-599-99-off-contract-due-october-25th.html" title="BlackBerry Storm 2 Makes Appearance in Best Buy Inventory System &#8211; $599.99 Off-Contract, Due October 25th">BlackBerry 9550 until the 25th.</a>, which could indicate a later date for when we see the device proper on store shelves.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t had a chance to get a close look at the Storm 2, it&#8217;s RIM&#8217;s second touchscreen smartphone, rocking Wi-Fi, 3.5mm headphone jack, a 3.2 megapixel camera, 360 x 480 capacitive display, 3G (EV-DO or HSPA, as the case may be), and OS 5.0. The SurePress clicking touchscreen has apparently been overhauled since the original Storm and renamed TruePress. Based on a few teardowns, folks think that the Storm 2 has four piezoelectric pads beneath the surface that can lock the clicking mechanism. So far, we&#8217;ve only seen that happen when the phone is turned off, but we&#8217;ll have to wait to see if a retail unit uses the technology in any other ways.</p>
<p>In any case, it&#8217;s an exciting time &#8211; does anyone think that they&#8217;ll give this bad boy a shot, or did the first iteration turn you off of SurePress for good?</p>

The touchscreen Sony Ericsson Satio is the Swedish-Japanese phone maker&#8217;s first Symbian S60 5th Edition smartphone and it oozes high-end sex appeal. We had <a href="http://www.intomobile.com/2009/02/18/sony-ericsson-idou-hands-on-video-and-pictures.html" title="Sony Ericsson Idou &#8211; Hands-on video and pictures!">a chance</a> to put hands-on the Satio back when it was <a href="http://www.intomobile.com/2009/02/15/sony-ericsson-unveils-12mp-touchscreen-iduo-at-mobile-world-congress.html" title="Sony Ericsson unveils 12MP touchscreen &#8220;Idou&#8221; at Mobile World Congress!">known as the Sony Ericsson Idou</a>, and it&#8217;s one helluva device &#8211; especially since it runs the so-old-it-hurts Sybmain platform.</p>
<p>Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>) UK is the only carrier to offer the Sony Ericsson Satio at the moment, but Orange has the Satio tagged as &#8220;coming soon.&#8221; Underneath that high-resolution 3.5-inch touchscreen lies all the high-end smartphone bits that we&#8217;d expect to see from a 12.1-megapixel cameraphone monster &#8211; DNLA-compatible WiFi, GPS, and 3G data. The glossy-black finish highlights the 12.1-megapixel camera (with Xenon flash) while the 3.5-inch touchscreen plays video with aplomb. Did we mention it sports a 12.1-megapixel camera? Yeah, it&#8217;s awesome.</p>
<p>Vodafone is offering the Satio for free when purchased with qualifying 2-year contract. Have <a href="http://redirectingat.com/?id=92X363&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.vodafone.co.uk%2Fshop%2Fmobile-phone%2Fsony-ericsson-satio">at it</a>!</p>

Even though we still wait for the official launch of Windows Mobile 6.5, Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) Germany and HTC have made a new firmware available for HTC Touch Diamond2 users with the latest version of Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)&#8217;s mobile OS.

<p>Even though we still wait for the official launch of Windows Mobile 6.5, Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>) Germany and HTC have made a new firmware available for HTC Touch Diamond2 users with the latest version of Microsoft (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=MSFT" style="color: #1a9128;">NSDQ: MSFT</a>)&#8217;s mobile OS. I&#8217;m not sure is it a pilot/testing program or what, but if you&#8217;re in Germany, you should definitely <a href="http://www.htc.com/de/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=249&amp;cat=2&amp;dl_id=695" target="_blank">upgrade your all-touchscreen WinMo device</a> to grab not only the updated Windows Mobile, but also the updated TouchFLO 3D user interface. I&#8217;m talking about the version which integrates weather information with home screen&#8217;s clock, hence saving more screen&#8217;s real estate. Plus there are other benefits you&#8217;ll see as well, but that&#8217;s another story.</p>
<p>Anyway, if HTC and Vodafone&#8217;s German subsidiary are going this route, the rest of the world won&#8217;t have to wait for too long to get their WinMo 6.5 fix, or at least that&#8217;s me thinking out loud&#8230;</p>

<p>Orange announced that it had got its mitts on the device yesterday (here), but now Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>) have gone live with a very similar “register your interest page” <a href="http://shop.vodafone.co.uk/shop/mobile-phone/iphone-3gs" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>So now we are just waiting for T-Mobile (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=DT" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: DT</a>) and 3UK to put their pages up – my bet is that T-Mobile comes first, and 3UK might even choose to leave it for now, and focus on INQ perhaps (new devices, including Android, just around the corner)…let&#8217;s see!</p>

<p>At its international Developer Event today, Vodafone is announcing the launch of a two-phased competition to find the most innovative and useful mobile widgets, giving two victorious developers the chance to bank up to €100,000 in prize money. Vodafone will outline the widget capabilities of the new Vodafone 360 mobiles at today’s Developer Event in front of content publishers, web and mobile developers from around the world.</p>
<p>Split into two phases (the first phase now and second phase during 2010), the Vodafone Appstar competition has a combined prize fund of €1,000,000 which will be shared across eight of Vodafone’s largest European operating companies to encourage innovation in the mobile application and widget space. The participating eight countries are: UK, Ireland, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece.</p>
<p>In the initial round of each phase of the competition, developers from anywhere in the world can submit widgets compatible with the new Vodafone 360 mobiles to any one of these eight markets via a competition website. A panel of experts from the local Vodafone operating company will then select three winning entries based on three criteria:</p>
<ul>
<li>User experience</li>
<li>Innovation</li>
<li>Value to the customer</li>
</ul>
<p>The developers responsible for the top three mobile widgets will be awarded prize money of €25,000, €15,000 and €10,000 for coming first, second and third respectively. The €25k winner will also have their entry submitted into a Pan-European competition to decide the best of the best. The eight competition winners’ widgets will then be put to the public vote within the participating eight countries and the winning developer will pocket a further prize of €75, 000, bringing their total prize money to €100,000. The runner up will win a total of €50,000.</p>
<p><strong>Software developers will be asked to write applications based on the latest Joint Innovation Lab (JIL) Software Developer Kit found at www.jil.org. For full details of the competition, please visit the website at </strong><a href="http://www.jil.org/vodafone/appstar" target="_blank"><strong>www.jil.org/vodafone/appstar</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p>
<p>And that&#8217;s basically it! Extending the Vodafone 360 impact in one easy swoop, by targeting developers &#8211; clever move, I like it &#8211; and the result should hopefully be some really decent Widget apps&#8230;</p>

Ha ha. See what I did there with the title? No? Nevermind.
Anyway, Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) has announced it&#8217;s new &#8216;360&#8242; service, which in simple terms, is a social networks aggregator that sync contacts between your phone, the InterWeb, and your computer. But why have me tell you when Vodafone can say it so much better:

<p>Ha ha. See what I did there with the title? No? Nevermind.</p>
<p>Anyway, Vodafone (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=VOD" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: VOD</a>) has announced it&#8217;s new &#8216;360&#8242; service, which in simple terms, is a social networks aggregator that sync contacts between your phone, the InterWeb, and your computer. But why have me tell you when Vodafone can say it so much better:</p>
<blockquote><p>Vodafone 360: bringing your world together like never before. A single address book for all your contacts from your phone, Facebook™, Windows Live Messenger™ and Google (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=GOOG" style="color: #1a9128;">NSDQ: GOOG</a>) Talk™. One place to get status updates and stay in touch with your friends. And a wide range of Apps, Games and Music for you to enjoy. In one experience, accessible from your phone, PC and Mac.</p></blockquote>
<p>So it&#8217;s not just social networking &#8211; there is also maps, and an App store too apparently.</p>
<p>Even better than that, there are going to be optimised handsets &#8211; oh yes!</p>
<p>First of all there is the Vodafone 360 H1, which is a device packing some serious clout &#8211; think 3.5&#8243; OLED screen, 5MP camera, and 16GB storage, and you are not too far off. Of course there will be further Vodafone 360-specific devices, and also those that are compatible, including the Nokia (<a href="http://finance.intomobile.com/intomobile?Page=QUOTE&#038;Ticker=NOK" style="color: #1a9128;">NYSE: NOK</a>) 6730, and Nokia N85 (I&#8217;m thinking that&#8217;s going to be a native app on those devices then&#8230;)</p>
<p>Overall, it does look like quite a compelling service &#8211; I&#8217;d imagine once all the initial hassle is out of the way getting the thing(s) configured, it will probably work pretty well &#8211; of course, if Vodafone UK PR want to send me a device and pre-configured service, I&#8217;ll be able to tell you all in more detail <img src='http://static.intomobile.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' title="Vodafone announces new 360 service" /> </p>
