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?

Nokia announces two new IP security appliances, Nokia IP290 and Nokia IP690 security platforms, rolling out a scalable hardware platform design offering better IT investment protection and a greater choice of security software applications to address emerging threats to company networks and data. Nokia IP690 is the first new IP security appliance with a multi-core and multi-threading architecture optimized for performance and scalability, readying businesses for processor-intensive security applications. The new hardware design offers investment protection by extending product life from two years to an average of five years. Nokia hardware platforms purchased today are upgradeable when newer versions of the Nokia IPSO(TM) operating system are released, and Nokia IP690 is expandable through various interface cards and accelerated data path (ADP card) technologies. This expandable approach allows customers to retain their initial investment for longer periods of time by offering the flexibility to expand performance at their own pace.

Nokia IP290 combines powerful network performance with a compact ½ RU form factor, offering branch offices and extended enterprise sites a full-featured security appliance backed by Nokia global support. Expandable with an included empty PMC slot, Nokia IP290 ships with Nokia IPSO 4.2 and an updated architecture, making it a reliable platform for unified threat management (UTM) implementations.

Nokia security appliances detect and block the increasingly sophisticated threats companies face as mobile device usage among workers expands, and as new network traffic patterns alter business security requirements. Nokia security solutions use deep packet inspection to uncover vulnerabilities and provide protection against application-level threats in the perimeter, core and data center.
