Apple as an MVNO

Very interesting patent from Apple (thanks to Unwired View), I wonder how it would work in practice.

Generally I can see it's a viable idea, however, also wondering how roaming charges can compete with any networks' own tariff. I understand that there would be a competition between available network operators, however, roaming charges still remain roaming charges.

New communications protocol from NRC

Nokia Research Center has just published a new communications protocol for "battery-seriously-constrained" devices, like watches, wireless sensors, etc. According to their research, Bluetooth requires way too much power that it hasn't been worth integrating it into these devices. Now I really wonder how this newborn will co-exist with already accepted & widely used standards.

And the link, where I found this info.
