Mobile phone technologies
Om and I sat down to discuss mobile phones, companies and technologies behind the networks, and the emergence of specialty MVNOs in search of their niche.
Summary: We don't like the new Cingular rebranding as AT&T but I like the new logo. Om thinks MVNOs are expensive and a bit of a fad. While we both like the latest gadgets and ample wireless bandwidth, Om is loyal to his SIM card and I am interested in phones with broad market adoption.
