[Mobilepartners] Trial Users Wanted

[Andrew Yu]

Hello,

Thanks to those of you who turned out for our Mobile Partners User Meeting last Friday. Sprint/Nextel gave us an update on their devices and services.

I am looking for couple of volunteers to test Treo 680 (Cingular Palm OS) and BlackBerry 8703e (Sprint) for couple of weeks and report any issues. In order for you to test you will need to either have a Cingular account with a data plan (you can swap the SIM card to Treo 680) or a Sprint account with BlackBerry data plan.

If you are interested, please email me and I will send you the device and instructions. (First Come First Served...)

Also, I thought I would share an interesting blog entry by the CEO of Beth Israel Hospital who put a perspective on using mobile email:

Have a great week!

Andrew
