Blackberry Applications : Easy to use and install

February 16th, 2011

Blackberry applications have moved one step relate   to controlling our lives. Dodge recently announced that it has launched owner’s manual apps on the Android, Blackberry, and iphone platforms. The apps offer a range of quality that supplement and enhance the existing hard-copy manuals and DVDs that come with Dodge vehicles.

First   these apps are portable, easily navigable owner’s manuals. Need to know what that flashing light on your dash is trying to tell you, or where you’ll find the jack in your new car? A couple of clicks through the app, and you’re in business. Handy video clips provide overviews of certain features. Dodge also points out that it can update the apps on a regular basis with warranty info and such The apps also allow users to identify and find parts, and in the case of emergency, they can connect users to Customer Care and summon 24-hour roadside assistance. There’s even a social media feature that puts Dodge owners in contact with fellow owners and enthusiasts.

The first apps to hook into the Drop box API, “Drop box anywhere,” are the local area sharing client Air Sharing (which this editor considers a must-install iPhone/iPod touch app), the Quick Office mini-office suite, Sprite Mobile backup, the Dictums dictation app, and document viewer Good Reader. Drop box serves as the easy transfer and storage means for the apps, and ideally makes them available everywhere you want to work on them. On the ipad, in particular, this fills out some of the “actually work on the thing” functionality you’ve heard about, but probably haven’t seen a real test case for.

On to what’s actually out right now—the Android app. It does not, as you might think, instantly sync all your Drop box files to space on your phone or microSD card. Instead, it’s a convenient place to download individual files, view documents in both Drop box’s own basic viewer and your installed apps, and, most helpfully, quickly create and share documents. Press and hold on any file, and you can copy, email, or use Android’s Share function to pass around a link for select access.

Consumers look at more mobile handsets than houses before making a purchase

June 10th, 2010

After conducting a poll of just over 2,000 people, the UK’s leading mobile phone comparison website has found that, on average, consumers look at more mobile phones and deals than they do cars or houses, prior to making a purchase.

A poll commissioned by the UK’s leading mobile phone comparison site has discovered that consumers view more mobile phones and deals than houses and cars before making a purchase.

The study, by www.rightmobilephone.co.uk, of 2,036 people aged 21-35 found that the respondents would look at an average of 5 houses before renting or buying one, whilst when it came to a vehicle, respondents would look at an average of 3 cars before making a purchase.

When it came to mobile phones however, respondents claimed to look at an average of 7 handsets and 9 tariffs before parting with their cash. The aim of the poll by www.rightmobilephone.co.uk was to look into buying habits of Brits and their research before spending habits.

The respondents were asked to give reasons as to why they looked at a certain number of different products before making a purchase and, when it came to mobile phones, 67% felt there was ‘too much choice’ which is what prompted them to looking into their options before committing to a sale.

In terms of properties, with 5 being the number people view on average before renting or buying, 83% felt they only viewed houses they thought they would move into, which limited the number they looked at.

The same could be said for cars, with 71% claiming they knew what vehicle they wanted before the started looking, hence limiting the number they actually looked at.

Neil McHugh, co-founder of rightmobilephone.co.uk, said;

“I’d agree that there is a huge amount of choice out there when it comes to mobile phones and tariffs, but the purpose of our website is to help people pick the right phone for them in a short space of time. With that said, I was still surprised to see that people actually look at more handsets and tariffs than they do houses and cars before buying.”

He continued, “Usually, the more expensive the item, the more time people take over making a decision to buy, but there are obviously a lot of people who are a bit bewildered by the sheer number of handsets and tariffs available, which is causing them to ponder more over their final decision. Hopefully, sites such as rightmobilephone.co.uk can help reduce the amount of time spent searching for a mobile by consumers.”

The huge potential for mobile money transfer grown exponentially over the last decade – by 130 percent since 2001, with an estimated US$248billion sent primarily from industrialised countries to the world’s emerging markets in 2007

San Francisco, CA and London, UK; 15 May 2009:  Mobile Money Transfer Report 2009: Profiting from cross-border remittance and global banking

    Despite the impact of the 2008-2009 global downturn, remittances as a source of liquidity will likely prove to be resilient, and could potentially play a role in restoring or increasing prosperity across regions. Whereas the sharp contraction of credit in the global banking sector has directly and instantaneously ravaged FDI alongside private debt and equity flows, remittances to the developing world are slowing down more gradually and indirectly as a result of declining personal consumption, lay-offs, and lower salaries impacting the real economy. This adds the resilience of remittances, where migrant workers will continue sending money to relatives in their countries of origin during uncertain economic times, albeit at less regular intervals and/or in smaller amounts.

    Despite a net reduction in new migration through 2009 due to tightening immigration controls as a protectionist political reactions in some countries, the number of migrants accumulated in previous years represents a significant proven source of remittances, the value of which will nevertheless be vulnerable to disruptive factors such as exchange rate volatility.

    This report, Mobile Money Transfer 2009, looks at the strong fundamentals behind the remittance market and how it will generate growth from the end of 2009 and forward beyond 2014. The report will explore how the mobile value chain and financial sector can tap into money transfer as an attractive new revenue stream, given the strength and ubiquity of mobile as a convenient, secure and low cost channel for financial.

    Mobile Money Transfer is positioned to exercise considerable transformational effect on developing economies, a crucial factor for wider world economic growth. Mobile Money also enables financial services and money transfers – often initiated by urban and international immigrants – to reach poor people in rural areas. Mobile remittance services will form the first commercially viable and sustainable opportunity to reach the unbanked with low cost, no-frills financial services.

    The huge potential for mobile money transfer can be seen from the sheer volume of cross-border remittances typically sent through existing channels such as banks and money transfer agencies. Measured flows have grown exponentially over the last decade – by 130 percent since 2001, with an estimated US$248billion sent primarily from industrialised countries to the world’s emerging markets in 2007. Although remittance flows are currently experiencing short-term decline, existing services and pilot projects in Kenya and the Philippines have shown operators a feasible route towards gaining a share of those large remittance flows expected by and new mobile remittance services are expected by 2011 at the latest. Operators and banks in the Middle East, Europe, Asia and Africa are in the process of deploying services primed to encourage and exploit potential growth.

    Major operators with international and inter-regional footprints such as Vodafone and Orascom Telecom have announced their intention to deploy mobile remittance, which they hope will act as a catalyst for the wider adoption of mWallet-enabled transaction services. Most importantly, mobile remittance presents a way for these inter-regional players to further maximise revenue potential through a greater proportion of their respective footprints, leveraging their assets in Europe and the Middle East in synergy with those in South Asia, Africa and the Asia Pacific.

    This brand new 80+ page report analysis all of the exciting opportunities that will be available to increase your revenues from this potential arena.

    Reading this exclusive management report will tell you the following:
    • What different forms of mobile remittance are available and expected to appear in the future?
    • Why is mobile potentially so important to banking and financial services, as well as economic development?
    • When will mobile remittance become a truly global mass market proposition?
    • How successful can these service propositions become?
    Find out the answers to these and many other questions by buying this vital industry insight.

    Mobile money transfer and m-payments have great potential due to the relationship between a mobile subscriber and their handset, where the mobile device is often with the end-user for most of their waking time. With mobile penetration reaching 100 per cent in many developed markets, the mobile phone will soon be in virtually everyone’s pocket. Payments and banking are currently major areas of growth in the mobile world and these are set to become even more specialised than they are at the moment. Do you understand this market? Do you know how it will develop? Is this an issue that you need to act on and find out about now?

    JAG Communications Supplies Phones for New Shop-Watch Programme in Cornwall

    May 13th, 2008

    JAG Communications’ Branch in Par is supplying local shop owners with 30 Orange Just Talk (Nokia 1200, Pay As You Go) Phones to use in the new Fowey Shop Watch scheme. Three of the Nokia 1200’s have been given to the scheme for free; in order to support the local authority’s efforts to tackle crime and antisocial behaviour in the area.

    The scheme will act like a neighbourhood/community watch programme; designed to alert business owners of shoplifting and other antisocial issues occurring in the area.

    The JAG Branch in Par is managed by Simon Austin-Rattenbury (32) and Sales Executive Chris Plowman (21). They learned about the Shop Watch scheme when Police Community Support Officer Linda Thomas visited the branch looking for mobile telephones with which to instigate the project. She had investigated various different options for how the scheme could operate, deciding finally upon a pre-installed text message system, allowing shop workers to quickly circulate important information to one another in a very short space of time.

    Linda Thomas said: “I looked into using a standard ‘phone around’ system, but since a lot of the shop workers in the area work on their own, this would have been too time consuming. I also investigated the use of radios, but these would have been a bit expensive, so I’ve settled on the text message idea; and it seems to work.”

    Linda will pre-programme a series of text templates into each handset, each containing short information alerts about various other acts of antisocial behaviour or criminal activity. But it doesn’t just stop at crime, Linda Thomas explained: “I can also use the shop-watch system to inform every store about descriptions of missing people and other community-related alerts.”

    Simon Austin-Rattenbury said: “I think it’s a great idea -there is too much anti-social behaviour going on. When people do steal things they don’t realise the impact it can have on small businesses trying to make a living.”

    There are 25 participating retail outlets in the village of Fowey, each with their own Shop Watch mobile telephone. Since some of the shops are also members of Pub Watch (those which sell alcohol) it is likely that Shop Watch and Pub Watch will combine to create a larger, even more secure network.

    Linda added: “The system is helping to make all of the shop workers feel safe.”

    The phones JAG have donated will be distributed to key members in the community, one will be given to the small town bus, which drives around Fowey all day and sees many visitors and locals, not only those on the bus, but also people on the streets.

    One will be given to the small boat kiosk situated on the town quay by the river, the person in the kiosk can see everyone entering Fowey via the river, water taxis, ferry boats and anyone who moors up at the quay to come ashore.

    The other phone will be the main Shopwatch phone, which will be used by Linda when she is working.

    JAG’s MD, John George said: “I’m very happy to be helping out with the security of businesses in Fowey. It’s increasingly important for business operators to cooperate with one another to reduce antisocial behaviour and where possible, to maintain the safety; and security, of each others’ livelihoods and shop staff. Mobile phones and text messages are very effective means of circulating important information quickly and easily.”

    Simon added: “From personal experience of working in a store on my own and being threatened with physical violence; I hope that this scheme will help the local shop owners feel less intimidated to call for help. I think that knowing someone will be with them very quickly if the need arises will make a significant difference.”

    Background:

    JAG Communications is the third-largest mobile phone retailer in the UK, with over 145 branches across England, Wales and Northern Ireland. We supply the latest handsets and accessories; as well as good-value contracts on all five major networks.

    Simon Austin-Rattenbury has been working for JAG for just over four years. Before that he worked briefly for Europcar at Newquay airport, he is married and has a six-year-old son. He is interested in sport and has played cricket for both St Austell and Fowey. Chris Plowman (21) also works in the branch as a Sales Executive.
