Sure - Particularly interested in the NFC bandwagon. Who's doing what, network vs handset responsibilities, settlement etc.

I'm meeting NXP at MWC, so we should get an update from them.

Ooooh, swanky news hexus stuffs :D

Very interested in SoCs aimed at bringing android to the mass market. I'd like a cheaper - and possibly PAYG - phone when my current contract expires, but frankly the ability to very quickly check email, pull up a google map or check the cricket scores really appeals to me too. If we can get more cheap android handsets at mass-market prices (by which I assume they mean ~< £100 PAYG and ~< £15/month contract) I may be persuaded to stick with android this summer :)

EDIT: oops, thought I was commenting on the Broadcom announcement: epic morning fail (not had my coffee yet ;) ). Doesn't change the fact that I'm interested in cheaper Android handsets, just means that comment doesn't make much sense on this article ;)

The Article
he and the team would love to hear your thought on the new site and what you would like to see on it.

So, double epic morning no-coffee fail on my part. :confused: It'll be a trip to Costa for me at lunch ;)

This popped out of the blue!

As long as it doesn't turn into a plain old handset review site (although exclusives would be good) then it sounds good.
Changes in the business, sales comparison figures, leaks & new tech are obviously top of the list :)

We're definitely more oriented towards the business aspect of mobile devices (hence the tagline), over the “OMG SHINY SHINY” splurging that you might see elsewhere.

I assumed as much, but I do like a nice ‘splurge’ now & again!

Plus, lets face it, we're mostly gadget/tech addicts so we DO utter the words “OMG SHINY SHINY” more often than we maybe like to admit? ;)

Yeah, I said “more”, not “completely” ;)
