Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Intel has launched its "Digital Communities" initiative under which it
is leading "a diverse group of high-tech companies to help 13 'pilot'
communities design, develop and deploy comprehensive solutions and
services to enhance government efficiency, promote economic growth,
foster greater community satisfaction and bridge the digital
divide."
Intel says it is "working closely with Cisco, Dell, IBM, and SAP to
help communities around the world replicate the successful instalments
in the pilot communities, which span from small cities to major
metropolitan areas." It lists other participating vendors as being
Accela, Airpath Wireless, Alvarion, British Telecom, CapGemini, CDW
Government (CDW-G), Check Point, Civitium, EarthLink, iMove, Panasonic,
Pronto Networks, Szintezis Rt, Telindus, Tropos and Vertex.
Intel lists the leading pilot communities as being: Cleveland (Ohio);
Corpus Christ (Texas); Philadelphia and Taipei and says: "other
participating cities include Portland (Oregon) along with Mangaratiba
(Brazil); Dusseldorf; Gyor (Hungary); Jerusalem; Principality of
Monaco; Seoul; Osaka; and Westminster (UK.
Highly conspicuous by its absence from the initiative is Nortel which
was responsible for the, very extensive, Taipei mesh network and which
has a number of other large scale mesh networks to its credit,
including Edith Cowan University in Western Australia
