DISQUS

I (for one...) would be very interested to hear how you get on switching it to Three, what O2 services you lose and your overall verdict.

Once you've polished the screen and washed your hands, of course! :)

Magazines are even closer to being finished than newspapers!
Just imagine when those MSM mags will hit the streets? Something tells me they'll be somewhat less than relevant by then.

Doomed, I tell ya!

Of course you're right, Dude.
O2 and, to a lesser extent, CPW should by now have added comments to every one of the pained articles here on SMStn by now, even if only to apologise for the cock-ups.

Dunno about calling them evangelists tho' -- a less right-on title might help their wider adoption among the Luddites.

Keep at it, mate. You know it makes sense!
:)

Let's face it: O2 are shit useless!
If even their friendly PR-droids had an ounce of sense they'd be trawling mobile blogs and forums explaining the problems and reassuring customers. But after 17 hours of this post being published, there's nothing but silence.

Even Orange couldn't turn this series of glitches into such a disaster!

How long before you come up with a virtual conference system as an alternative to shipping folk halfway around the world?
Wonder how much fuel / released CO2 such a system might save?

MobileToday have details of VF's new business plans:

"Vodafone has unveiled new business tariffs which focus on mobile email and internet to satisfy a growing number of workers on the move.
"The Vodafone Total Business plans will be launched on 2 June targeting small to medium enterprises.
"They will replace the existing Sharetime Plus and Small Business price plans.
"The new plans include individual text packs and mobile internet and email packs which can be added to specific users within a company.
"The mobile internet and mobile email packs come in two sizes - standard usage bundles offer 500MB while high usage bundles offer 5GB."

A great round-up of all the speculation and rumours, Mathew.

I'm hoping that these are signs of a larger Presence-aware contact and messaging system ("Jaiku, meet GTalk"!) that'll feed through to a desperately-needed integrated mobile suite for non-iPhones. Probably Android, too.
