Direct link to order a UK T-Mobile G1
Thursday, October 30th, 2008Tear up your phone contract (maybe… one day)
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008An interesting patent lodged by Google has been mentioned by New Scientist and Engadget amongst others. It would allow for a consumer to decide which network (cellular, wifi or other) they want to use in a particular location and time based on price and other factors.
This could make picking your voice and data tarriff more like choosing which drink you prefer with your lunch. I think this would make nice change from signing your life away (well… 18 months of it) to an operator.
Google do file plenty of patents so this isn’t necessarily going to get the carriers quaking in their boots just yet. However, it does look interesting and makes a lot of sense if the technology will allow for it.
