• 全业务运营商该做好的5件事


    运营商在移动通信及信息服务产业链中扮演着举足轻重的作用,有的时候甚至在行使“管理者”权力。然而每个国家的运营商由于历史原因,社会原因及发展阶段不同,角色各有千秋。

    对于国内的移动互联网发展及今后的3G移动通信及信息产业,我个人觉得新成立的三大全业务运营商应该做好以下5件事:

    1、让高质量低辐射的移动网络覆盖无处不在(语音通信)

  • Just finished MOBILE2VENTURE PPT


    After a week's work, finally I finished the 1st version of MOBILE2VENTURE Brief Introduction, if you want to take a look what's it like, please click here: MOBILE2VENTURE to see my Flickr album.

    Here's a quick look:


    The COVER

  • Apple “Mobile me” - iPhone for free
    ——毫无疑问,Mobile me绝对是一场革命,革命!!!

    关键字:
    Apple、 iPhone、3G、Mobile me、Internet、Wireless、Telecom、Software、Service、Platform、Revolution、 Innovation、Steve Jobs、Business model、free

    在Apple 2008年的WWDC全球开发者会议上,Steve Jobs发布了iPhone2.0(iPhone 3G),不过这些都不重要,最重要的是Jobs又一次发布了一个革命性的“服务”——Mobile me,这才方显Apple的真实意图:Apple并非想赚iPhone硬件的毛利,也没计划从iPhone的第三方应用授权费上捞好处,iPhone对于 Apple的使命是“推销Mobile me”,而“Mobile me”才是APPLE战略转型的开始,今后APPLE的商业模式正式改变了!

    我 的预测是:这个年费99美金的在线服务“Mobile me”的终极目是“让iPhone免费”,就像我们从运营商那里签约换手机一样,将来只要你签约一定时间Mobile me的服务,就能免费得到iPhone!而iPhone和Mobile me也是相辅相成的,有了Mobile me在线服务,iPhone就更iPhone了:-)

    先来简单看看什么是Mobile me:

    Mobile Me提供了跨终端、跨网络实时同步联系人、电子邮件、日历等数据的功能。按照Apple的说法,Mobile me是Exchange for the rest of us.,用过Exchange的企业用户可能都体会过Windows mobile手机、Windows PC加上Exchange服务器信息实时同步带来的便捷。可是很多公司并不向员工提供基于Microsoft的Exchange服务。

    所以今天,Apple让所有人都有机会用上这样的服务!

    Mobile me支持Windows PC,Outlook,Mac电脑以及iPhone!对于竞争对手Microsoft面向大众的Exchange服务(迟迟没有正式发布) “Windows Live Mesh”来说,Mobile me虽然要收取99 美元的年费,但依然极具竞争力,我都迫不及待要买一台iPhone来体验一下Mobile me了!

  • The vision and the dream for Changyou.cc

     
    After all day's busy schedule, I finally had some time to read via Google reader, and was attracted by an artical from Keso, one of the famous IT blogger in China. 

    It's about "a hostile acquisition" story happened 3 years ago, that Shanda - the biggest online game company in China trying to acquire Sina - the biggest online portal in China. But Shanda failed that acquisition because of the "Poison Pill". But that's not the point I was attracted. The best part was that Keso said he used to be the supporter of Sina but after 3 years, when he look back, he found out that Shanda was facing a bumpy road during their growth, though Sina's been developing well; but the point is Shanda is still under control of a passionate entreprenuer with great vison and dream, while Sina's in charged by some prefessional managers who only care about their current business without any vision or dream about the future.

    That's what I've been working out, the vision and dream for Changyou.cc ! This story made me want to write it down, not just keep in mind.

    Simply say, Changyou.cc is a PIM enabled mobile SNS, we think there are plenty of potential powers of mobile phone which have not been developed, mobile phone should be the major device helping peple to manage their relationship, real life relationship. We'll offer a revolutionary way of interacting with mobile phone, users don't need to learn how to play. Actually it'll be the mobile phone that should keep learning the interaction style of its owner, in order to please the owner, to be the mate of the owner. You could imagine, in the near future:

    1. Your mobile phone knows what you like and what you hate;
    2. Your mobile phone displays what you are expecting to see with less button press;
    3. Your mobile phone asks for your permission for the transaction before your expectation;
    4. Your mobile phone filters anything message or incoming call you don't want;
    5. Your mobile phone informs you who's got your mobile phone when you lost it;
    6. Your mobile phone presents you if your friends are avilable before you interrupt them;
    7. Your mobile phone shows you the trail of how to get connected with someone you want to know;
    8. Your mobile phone reads your mind...


    That's our big dream and vision for Changyou.cc, we'll enable mobile phone to be your "handy mate"!

    Stay tuned, we'll deliver what you want just in the right time, to the right screen...

  • Yahoo! onePlace: Mobile content storage

    Yahoo’s onePlace is a new service from Yahoo! which allows you to dump bookmarks into a dedicated folder where you can view and arrange it on the fly. The example they give is a trip: you add your flight info, the weather, your hotel, and some things you’d like to see. You can also drop in video, audio, and pictures.

    You can group items as “Collections,” “Favorites,” and “Pulse.” Pulse is a system for streaming new information to your mobile i.e. flight time updates or new news posts about a subject. It also has a mobile RSS reader built-in. Think of it as a del.icio.us that’s not del.icio.us.

    It will launch in the Spring 2008 as an addition to Yahoo! Go 3.0 and Yahoo! oneSearch.

  • 搭载VRE中间件 创维换芯试水智能化

    http://www.sina.com.cn 2008年02月01日

        国产手机技术革新的脚步逐步加快,范围也越来越广,继金力手机与VRE手机中间件合作,实现手机智能化,取得业界反响以及消费者认可之后,创维紧随其后也 与VRE合作,据悉从今年第一季度开始,首先应用于创维I88型号手机,随后VRE将陆续应用在创维全系列产品中,从而使得创维全线产品逐步实现智能化, 以满足用户更为多样化的终端需求。

        VRE是国内著名无线核心技术提供商沃勤公司的产品,依靠架构在目标平台的中间件VRE,形成第三方软件开发与整合平台方案,向程序员提供一致的开发和运 行界面,使程序员能够快速开发出不同种类的应用程序,从而使得feature phone也具备智能手机才能有的动态程序加载和执行技术,从而使得更多应用开发产品能够运用到原本资源有限的手机终端上来。

        创维软件合作负责人陈先生说, VRE中间件平台为我们实现了手机在低成本的同时具备智能化的功能,其开放的开发环境和工具也为应用供应商提供了开发便利。我们将陆续推出更多支持 VRE的终端,以满足市场需求。
     
        据悉,VRE成功应用到手机终端之后,获得了手机厂家、应用商以及芯片公司的青睐,目前 TCL和 KONKA也跃跃欲试,期望搭载VRE平台,而各大芯片公司也在接触 VRE的提供商沃勤科技,记者就此询问沃勤公司,对方没有给出正面答复。沃勤产品VRE为代表的中间件提供商,正在逐步引领国产手机智能化方向的变革,国 产手机核心技术已经悄然革新。

  • 当我们对3G 望眼欲穿的时候,却已经悄悄地步入了2.75G时代;虽然业内一些专家人士并不看好 EDGE,但中国移动依然耗资300多亿将国内重点城市的 GRPS网络升级至EDGE,这一部署自然有其深刻的含义。

    首先,我们来看看什么是EDGE

    EDGE
    的英文全称为Enhanced Dataratefor GSM Evolution ,中文含义为"改进数据率GSM 服务",业内人士称为 "2.75 G",它通过 改善调制解调方式,对 GSMGPRS网络稍做小的改动,就能提供最高理论峰值速率 473.6kbps的高速移动数据传输,可以稳定达到190k的下载速 度,比现有的GPRS 要快34 倍。先 后有美国的Cingular Wireless AT&T Wireless、智利的Telefonica Moviles、我国香港特区的 CSL和泰国的AIS 开通了基于 EDGE的服务。与此同时,一些欧洲的移动运营商对 EDGE也开始表现出兴趣,其中TIM TeliaSonera 都明确表示将采用EDGE技术。

    EDGE
    的概念是Ericsson公司于 1997年第一次向ETSI提出的,同年, ETSI批准了EDGE的可行性研究,这对以后 EDGE的发展铺平了道 路。尽管 EDGE仍然使用了GSM载波带宽和时隙结构,但它也能够用于其他的蜂窝通信系统。 EDGE可以被视为一个提供高比特率、并且因此促进蜂窝移动系 统向第三代功能演进的、有效的通用无线接口技术。在此基础上,统一无线通信论坛(UWCC)评估了用于 TDMA/136 EDGE 技术,并且于1998 1月批准了该技术。

    EDGE
    提供了一个从GPRS 3G的过渡性方案,从而使现有的网络运营商可以最大限度地利用现有的2.5G无线网络设备,在 3G商业化之前提前为用户提 供个人多媒体通信业务。由于GDGE是一种介于现有的第二代移动网络与第三代移动网络之间的过渡技术,因此也有人称它为 "2.75G"技术。EDGE同样充分利用了现有的 GSM资源,保护了对GSM作出的投资,目前已有的大部分设备都可以继续在 EDGE中使用。

    中国移动的EDGE情节:

    虽然高通中国区董事长汪静昨天在表示并不看好EDGE,而中国第二大移动运营商联通也以假设了更为 "完善" CDMA 1X精品网;但我们依然不能否认,可平滑过渡到 WCDMA成熟3G标准的 EDGE对与立志发展WCDMA的中国第一大移动运营商 ——CMCC来讲,其意义 极为深远。

    1. EDGE是一种成熟的高速率技术,从 2G/2.5GGSM/GPRS网络升级到 EDGE的成本不高;
    2. EDGE可以平滑过渡到WCDMA标准制式的 3G网络,而WCDMA是中国移动的最佳 3G方案;
    3. EDGE的数据传输速度在实际应用中,可以达到GPRS 3倍左右,可以在3G前夜提前开始宽带移动数据业务的战略部署;
    4. 联通CDMA 1X 数据网卡的推出已经严重分流了中国移动的中高端商务用户,中国移动需要EDGE来挽回这类用户;
    5. 国外运营商部署的3G 网络大部分以WCDMA为主,2008 年奥运会期间,大量3G用户漫游到中国,即便国内 WCDMA网络尚未建成,EDGE也可以很好弥补这一缺陷;

    在中国3G 牌照发放的前夜,中国移动上马EDGE是比较好的时机,因为中国联通方面已经有支持高速率无线传输的 CDMA 1X网络;为了在3G市场不输在起跑线上,中国移动需要一个过渡技术来满足用户对高速率服务的需求, EDGE嫣然成为中国移动唯一的选择。

    从这里我们就可以看出,中国移动势必会力挺EDGE,为整个 EDGE产业链的发展起到非常积极的拉动作用。

    EDGE
    的终端支持:

    要想让EDGE 的优势得到充分的发挥,除了网络建设外,还需要应用和终端双方面的支持,最后用户才会为中国移动的EDGE投资 "买单"

    目前市场上支持EDGE 的手机主要是Nokia(其实,中国移动上马 EDGE 也是由Nokia作为幕后推手的)等国际手机品牌及多普达的 Windows Mobile系列;这类手机用户在EDGE 网络覆盖区,当手机接入GRPS网络时,原本的 G字型Logo已经被 E字形Logo取缔,而数据链接速度也会好 上一些(据我实际测试,可能就是1倍左右,还没有达到传说中的 3-4倍);不过国内的大部分手机厂商暂时还没有大量推出支持EDGE的移动终端,这并不是 他们不看好EDGE ,究其原因,还要从手机产业链分工来说起。

    手机产业链大致分为芯片/ 平台>集成> 整机/品牌 >渠道>用户;而整机是否支持 EDGE,要从源头说起,也就是说"芯片 /平台"提供商。在国内销售的手机,主要的芯片 /平台提供商 TI(主要供货给Nokia)、 NXP(半数供货给三星)、MTK(主要供货给国产品牌手机及黑手机)、 Chipnuts(国产手机及黑手机)、Infineon Spreadtrum等。而国产手机主要依赖的几家平台供应商均没有量产支持 EDGE的芯片及平台,所以,国产手机品牌尚未大规模量产 EDGE手机。

    不过,各大芯片厂的内部都以紧锣密鼓地开始了 EDGE 产品线的部署。以Chipnuts为例,其前不久刚刚高调发布的 NX200智能手机平台的下一款升级版本即将向IDH及手机品牌商提供整合 EDGE芯片及丰富的应用软件的Total solution ,帮助本土手机品牌商尽快分享EDGE盛宴。

    EDGE:准 3G移动应用

    说来说去,EDGE 只是一个速率在200K以内的移动宽带,其真正的价值要靠 "移动应用"方可体现的出来。什么样的应用在 EDGE下会受到用户的亲睐呢?笔者根据自己的亲身体验,按照自己的"喜好度 ",总结如下:

    1. EDGE 手机连接到便携上,随时随地尽享
