“With the implementation of cell sites into more remote areas this Motorola solution provides us with an efficient and reliable alternative to the often costly roll-out of mains grid electricity. This is an important project for us and commencement of the wind and solar cell site trial is proof of our commitment to our customers to provide the essential communication services needed in the region,” said Albertus Aochamub, corporate services general manager, MTC Namibia.

By incorporating renewable energy solutions into communication networks Motorola is trialling this solution as a feasible option for operators instead of utilising costly fuel generators or waiting long periods for a mains grid connection. The Dordabis cell site will remain a part of MTC Namibia’s live GSM network throughout the trial.

Motorola has been working with the GSM Association on this project which was announced at 3GSM Barcelona in February this year. “A key challenge in much of Africa is connecting people in off-grid locations and this project seeks to highlight to operators that wind and solar power is a real and cost effective alternative. We expect this pilot to become a showcase for the industry and to see replication of the model thereafter,” said Dawn Hartley, Development Fund manager at the GSMA.

With its expanded rural and roadside network coverage MTC Namibia is providing voice and GPRS/EDGE data services to enable new communities to access communication and the internet at a level not possible before. Recently, MTC Namibia has also launched a Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) service on its GPRS network. Initially being utilized as a communication aid to deliver services within local communities, it will be expanded to serve diverse subscriber groups and businesses in the future.

“We are excited to be working with MTC Namibia on this solar and wind power powered cell site. Though this particular trial is being delivered on a GSM network, the Motorola solution has the capability to be applied to other wireless networks that have rural cell site power issues,” said Ali Amer, vice president, Middle East, Africa and Pakistan, Motorola Home & Networks Mobility.

Once installed, the cost of power is almost zero, and wind and solar powered cell sites require minimal maintenance unlike a diesel driven generator which generally requires, at a minimum, a monthly visit for refuelling. This translates into added savings in operating expenditure (OPEX), a key factor to emerging market network operators.

Motorola’s renewable energy solutions for powering wireless network cell sites are part of the company’s Reach GSM portfolio. For more information please review the Solar and Wind trial micro site at: www.motorola.com/reach/windandsolartrial

In this year’s independent survey conducted under the auspices of the University of Michigan, Verizon Wireless scored above the industry average and higher than every other measured wireless company.

“We’re pleased that we’ve been able to hold the top spot on the ACSI Index for customer satisfaction for the past four years and that the significant gains we’ve made year over year have been noted,” said Jack Plating, executive vice president and COO of Verizon Wireless. “At Verizon Wireless, our customers are our number one priority, which is why we invest heavily in our network and our products and services to ensure that we are attracting and retaining customers by providing the best wireless experience.”

Additionally, the company has posted the lowest churn rate among the largest national wireless carriers for the past 10 consecutive quarters.

The ACSI is produced by the Stephen M. Ross Business School at the University of Michigan, in partnership with the American Society for Quality (ASQ) and the international consulting firm, CFI Group.

Disney Channel programming is also great to keep the kids occupied in the car and in many other locations.”

Beginning this fall, selected entertainment and news on-demand content and linear programming will include advertising in order to provide customers with the most variety of content at the least cost to them.

“I believe that our partnership will continue to bring new energy to the Chinese mobile phone market,” said Mr. David Tang, Vice President of Nokia, expressing his confidence in the agreement.

Nokia – the world’s largest mobile phone manufacturer – and China Postel – China’s largest mobile phone distributor – have a long-standing partnership that continues to grow stronger over time. This new partnership agreement represents a significant milestone for both parties.

Mr. Tan Xinhui, President of China Postel, said, “Over the past few years, we have been pursuing new ways of working with operators, mobile phone manufacturers, and consumers in order to enhance our competitiveness. We hope to have a fundamental role in the development of the Chinese mobile phone market.”

As a subsidiary company of China P&T Appliances, China Postel has become a provider of mobile phones and is actively involved in China’s telecom service industry. With a comprehensive distribution network for both products and services, China Postel has been the leading distributor on the China mobile phone market for eight consecutive years, with a market share of over 30% in 2006. Since the collaboration between Nokia and China Postel began in 1998, China Postel has distributed over 37 million Nokia mobile phones across China.

This is updated from the outlook Nokia provided in its first quarter 2007 earnings announcement on April 19, 2007, when the company said it expected its device market share in the second quarter 2007 to be approximately at the same level sequentially.

Nokia believes that its device shipments in the second quarter 2007 will be positively impacted, as excess device inventory in the market has sufficiently cleared. In its first quarter 2007 earnings announcement, Nokia said that it believed there had been an impact in the market from the excess inventory of certain of its competitors’ products in the first quarter. This excess inventory also temporarily impacted Nokia’s visibility into short term market developments.

Nokia continues to target an increase in its market share in mobile devices for the full year 2007.

Nokia will report its second quarter 2007 results on August 2, 2007.

According to most rumours, the handset is likely to have a full-colour wide-screen design and will, of course, come Internet ready. Little else is known about the proposed device, indeed it t is still far from certain that Google will even get as far as launching a mobile phone at all, although the company is said to have been putting out feelers to several potential manufacturers.

Google recently confirmed that it had plans to expand into any territory, but the search engine giant has yet to comment specifically on the rumoured handset venture. According to a spokesperson for the company “Mobile is an important area for Google. We remain focused on creating applications and establishing and growing partnerships with industry leaders to develop innovative services for users worldwide. However, we have nothing further to announce.”

Certainly, Google has already taken several important steps to position itself as a major player in the mobile market, but whether this will include actually selling its own-brand handsets, remains to be seen. The Google Maps system is even due to be integrated into Apple’s iPhone.

For its part Nokia, the world’s largest mobile phone maker, has already made its position clear. A spokesperson from the Finnish giant was quoted on the Daily Tech website as saying “It (the Google phone) will meet with limited success and lose money.” Time will tell if the Finns are right.
