Nokia Siemens Networks introduces its new solution, Village Connection, for affordable rural connectivity and coverage in new growth markets. Nokia Siemens Networks Village Connection offers an easy concept to build rural connectivity village by village, enabling an innovative franchise-based business model between an operator and local village entrepreneurs.

The Nokia Siemens Networks Village Connection solution supports GSM based voice and SMS services, including roaming and connection to the outside world. A range of value-added services can be added, such as cost-effective Internet services in villages via the Internet protocol link.
Nokia Siemens Networks Village Connection comprises GSM access points located in villages and regional access centers. A village would typically host one access point module comprising GSM radio, power and IT hardware and software components. The access point only requires simple installation and powering can be done, for instance, by solar energy. Each access point connects to standard GSM mobile devices and autonomously handles calls within a village through local switching. Access points are connected via Internet Protocol links to a regional access center. The access center connects the villages to the main GSM core network and handles the calls between the villages.

The novel Nokia Siemens Networks Village Connection allows to transfer responsibility for network and business functions to a local level, building cost-effective connectivity village by village. It can employ local people to manage access within each village, or local entrepreneurs may license the mobile access rights for their surrounding area. The solution will be available in 2008.

After I lost my phone in two month ago, of course I buy again because handphone is one of important thing for me. If before I use GSM phone, Now I try to use CDMA phone and after have many selection, I choose Nokia 6225 phone. The feature inside this phone such as Dual band 800 and 1900, RUIM, SMS & MMS, FM Radio, Java Support, WAP browser, and bad result of VGA Camera. Well, my keyword to buy this phone actually just GPRS and Java, because with that I can do more...chating, browsing, emailing, etc.. And for the CDMA operator, I choose StarOne from Indosat, of course after learn and compare that. I follow the step to set up WAP connection and It's little hard to get connected. After connected to internet, directly try to download OperaMini application for browsing and Mig33 application for chating. But, I try many times using its application and still can't connected to internet, still error and error..Hmmm...what's wrong with it?? If browse with Nokia MiniBrowser still can connected, but if browse with Java application still can't connected!!!..

A few days after that, my friend SMS me. He says that this New Nokia 7370 Phone can't access mig33 application too!!..Oh ya, my friends buy new phone because his handphone lost too, same like me. Before it my friend also use Nokia and still can't access mig33.

Well, why so hard to make connection with Nokia java phone? Maybe the main reason is NOKIA!!! They have bad configuration for their Java Phone. Just compare with Sony Ericsson phone, I use Sony ericsson for long time a go and don't have a problem with it! If have problem, it's depend on cellular operator just like bad internet connection. It so easy and fast to run Java application, I feel satisfied using Sony Ericsson phone but still dissatisfied with Nokia Phone! According to my opinion, Nokia just have a high name, not high quality. For many products maybe big quality but of course very high price. How about you?

Sony Ericsson announced two new Walkman® phones supporting Java™ Platform 7 (JP-7), making 14 phone series that now support this platform. The W580 is a quad-band EDGE slim slider phone with built-in sports applications and the W660 is an elegant UMTS phone with a "stick" form-factor and a tactile external finish. Both the W580 and W660 include the latest Walkman player 2.0 which simplifies music track, playlist and genre navigation with a more intuitive UI. The TrackID™ music recognition functionality records a few seconds a track from the radio or microphone, sends the track to the comprehensive Gracenote® music database for identification and returns the information to the phone.



Both phones also include a 2 Megapixel camera, full HTML browser, removable storage with a Memory Stick Micro™, RSS feed support and Mobile 3D gaming with both JSR 184 and Mascot Capsule v3. The major differences between the phones are network frequency support, styling and end-user lifestyle choices.
The W580 features an integrated pedometer and the accompanying sport applications monitor:

• Speed and distance when running
• Daily step count with automatic reset at midnight
• Calorie counter
• Daily progress on standby screen

To make using the W580 Walkman phone on the move even easier, the earphones supplied with the phone have ear hooks giving a stable fit, eliminating the frustration of earphones falling out when exercising.
