POPSText Messaging Until the Wheels Come Off Well, though these stats probably warm the hearts of some twisted marketing heads, it's got to make you wonder how safe the driver is on the other side of that yellow line. Text messaging can be effective, but dead drivers don't buy anything. And can you imagine the backlash if the media actually published the last thing the driver looked at on their cell phone...and it was your company's ad? Talk about a twitterstorm.

POPSSharp decline in business for handset makers A day doesn't go by without further indication that the crisis is deepening and hitting sectors previously thought to be shielded to a some extent. This piece of news also shows that consumers and businesses alike are unlikely to resume investments and spending before they are certain that the worse of the crisis is behind us. In the field of mobile telephony a sharp drop in capacity used by subscribers is to be expected and in particular in those patterns of usage rightly considered to be most expensive (roaming, mobile multimedia Internet...) This is all rather good news for Jajah, (www.jajah.com, which I covered on my blog more than two years ago) as well as for Skype. Furthermore, I expect broadband ISPs to do well.

POPSIn Africa- The cellphone is the single most transformative technology for development" "Democratic Republic of Congo, with a population of 60 million, there are just 10,000 fixed-line telephones, but more than one million mobile subscribers. In Chad, the fifth-least-developed country in Africa, usage jumped from 10,000 to 200,000 in three years. At the end of 2007 there were more than 280 million mobile phone subscribers in Africa, representing a penetration rate of 30.4%." "now they can call around and know what the prices are. They can call their relatives in town, for example, and ask how much is a bunch of bananas, so they get an idea of what the price is for their produce"

POPSThe Future of Transportation Electric. Very interesting vision. Aggasi’s plan to electrify the private transportation system is nothing short of ingenious. It is a win-win game for governments, car owners, for the environment, for the economy and for Aggasi’s company. True many details must be worked out properly for such a deep change to take place. But it seems entirely within reach. Read the rest here

POPSMobiles 'may be riskier than smoking' The debate has begun again. Today we are affected by many forms of radiation. We spend long hours in front of the Pc, stand around waiting for food to microwave. We gladly ingest radio active material from nuclear power plants, oh wait that last one is just me...

POPSCable Cos. Rolling Out Wireless Service Major cable companies are finally beginning to offer cell-phone service via Sprint Nextel, a partnership that they first announced in November 2005. The strategy is to offer customers a discounted "quadruple" play of cable TV, broadband, home phone and wireless services, something that phone companies like Verizon have begun selling as well. Given that cable companies and landline phone companies usually operate as local monopolies, any competition between the two should be a good thing for consumers. But pushing quadruple play packages will also put a damper on the willingness or likelihood that a customer will switch their service to another company. Which of course is part of the strategy too. - Louis Hau
