Blogger News Item (Oct 16 2003 20:52 GMT) - Send SMS Over Wi-Fi. Comverse demonstrated a product that lets Wi-Fi users send SMS messages to cell phones: This may seem like a no-brainer but SMS isn't an IP-based system—so you can't send an actual SMS from any computer. This blurb, however, makes it sound like wireless operators may be migrating toward IP SMS systems. Here is an actual press release from Comverse on the capability. |

First Japanese TV phone. (Oct 16 2003 20:51 GMT) - First Japanese TV phone. We almost missed this: Vodafone says that starting in December it's going to carry NEC's V601N cameraphone with an analog television tuner. You can't record TV shows and save them for later with the V601N, but it can capture still images of whatever you're watching that you can use as wallpaper or email to friends or whatever, and the phone can supposedly even double as remote control for a regular TV.

criminal commenting (Oct 16 2003 20:48 GMT) - So here's the thing. This afternoon someone left a series of abusive comments on one of my old entries - nothing too serious, but irritating nonetheless. The IP address of anyone leaving comments is logged automatically, in this case pinpointing the perpetrator to a company providing (somewhat ironically) IT solutions to the Criminal Justice sector, and I'm tempted to contact the firm and report the abuse. Is this a good idea, or am I just asking for further trouble? |
