Phone call with intend message I’ve chatted with a friend of mine about this (and also bragged to him that my blog is now linked by cnn on the article of cybercrime Victory!) and he gave my an interesting thought. The calls may be also cathegorised as of urgent, normal and low importance.

I’ve also discussed this idea with Cladiu Hulea and together we’ve come up to a very simple idea on how this technology can be successfully implemented. The message announcing your intent could be like an associated sms that is sent along with the call. More or less like the location cell information you can receive on your mobile.

The mobile companies need to do the software protocol that would read both information (the call info and the associated sms) and display them together. I’m not sure how the call info is transmitted over to the phone, but I guess the call will have one byte more that would look like 1 0101110 if there is an associated sms with it (the first 1 - means that the call has an associated sms with it, while the rest will be with an identifier of the sms) or a simple 0 0000000 (if there is no sms associated).

Nokia, Vodafone, Orange, iPhone .. guys, you know I am counting on you :)

Steve Jobs Apple As if I sensed something in the dusty air of Bucharest :) , more precisely of Apple’s update of iPod’s screen with the one of the most praised iPhone ;;) … I just bought myself a little and very precious sidebed lamp for late at night novels and art/psychology/computer reading.

The one and only Vico Magistretti’s 1965 revival of white DALU lamp ….

Great design asks for great design in return , or so they say :)

Good news that AT&T is no longer the sole operator of iPhone. As George Hotz shows on his blog on thursday, there are 10 steps to break in

BBC reads that “Before George Hotz’s announcement on his blog, the iPhone was made to work on overseas networks using another method, which involves copying information from the Sim (Subscriber Identity Module) card.

However, special equipment was needed and the actual phone was not unlocked, with each Sim card having to be reprogrammed for use on a particular iPhone.

George, do us all a good favor and unlock it for the European market… we love iPhone just as well :) !!
