Author: Verа Kozlova   Source: DigiTimes     Translation by: Rytchkova Anja     

Not long ago Dell had stopped shipments of its Axim x51 handheld and seemed to abandon the PDA market. At once rumors floated in the Internet that Dell would release smartphones and communicators. And indeed, there emerged some info (not officially confirmed yet) that Quanta may be developing a new communicator for Dell. The new model is expected to be launched in 4Q 2007.

Quanta shared little info about the device, it is codenamed “Fly”, it will be powered by Windows Mobile 6 Professional OS and support HSDPA standard. The communicator is likely to have a QWERTY-keyboard, though feature matters have yet to be determined.

Quanta is currently the notebook supplier for Dell, at the same time it is making communicators and 3G handsets for Hewlett Packard and O2. Well, now the companies will apparently cooperate in this sphere. So let’s follow the process and wait for more details.

American subscribers prefer WiMAX    [ 18-04-2007 08:39 ]

Author: Verа Kozlova     Translation by: Rytchkova Anja     

The analytical company In-Stat carried out a survey, which revealed that American subscribers prefer WiMAX services to cellular data or Wi-Fi. The survey was conducted with over 1200 respondents earlier this year. The analysts say that WiMAX’s ability to support services with notebook cards and USB-devices will become a reality this year. The combination of mobile and fixed capabilities will help WiMAX providers to differentiate broadband services from what is currently available.

Besides In-Stat reveled the following:

• Over 50% of respondents would change their current broadband provider for one that offers wireless with a home broadband service.
• Respondents' interest in cellular data transfer dropped when they learn the pricing.
• Top attributes used in choosing a wireless broadband provider, when not factoring in price, were availability and reliability.
