mTrends - mobile media lifestyle trends - m-trends.org

I have mentioned it before here, here, here, and here (sorry, can’t help it!) so faithfull m-trends readers shoud know by now that podcasts are one of my favourite mobile applications.

I could easily imagine it would be like that before I ever heard one for real on a mobile phone. Now that I have the phone to consume daily podcasting media, I just can’t get enough of it: it’s easy, it’s very straightforward and usually fast to download over a wi-fi connection (I do not recommend to download podcasts over 3G networks however - check your pricings with your operator first!), Needless to say I can listen to them whenever, wherever… the ultimate mobile cliché - as to say for once come true - right here, right now

Last weekend Martin Sauter interviewed me over Skype on the wireless operator landscape in Spain and how things are changing over here - the good news is… they finally do! I might be ranting a bit more in the podcast on another topic that has been popular on m-trends.org before, but I hope operators see it as constructive criticism.

Topics we discussed during the interview:

• Wireless Internet prices in Spain and recent changes
• Usage scenarios
• On portal / off portal strategies
• Block mobile Internet access for your kids?
• Nokia’s new web browser in N-series phones
• Topics for the next Mobile Mondays in Barcelona

You can listen to or download the podcast here (33 mins.)

Do check out Martin’s blog if you don’t know it, it’s one of my favourite reads. He just launched a book also: “Communication Systems for the Mobile Information Society” and it’s available on Amazon and Wiley.
