<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-85 aligncenter" title="netbiscuits_logo" src="http://consumermedia.wordpress.com/files/2009/05/netbiscuits_logo.jpg" alt="netbiscuits_logo" width="244" height="68" /></p>
<p><strong>Introduction</strong></p>
<p>Our <a title="Business Media" href="http://www.businessmedia.co.uk">business media</a> blog has been running a series called “<a title="Making Content Pay" href="http://businessmedia.co.uk/?s=making+content+pay&#38;searchsubmit=Find+%C2%BB" target="_blank">Making Content Pay</a>”. As part of this they recently had a look at who the innovators were in the mobile space. In this quest they stumbled upon a very dynamic business that has its roots in Germany that is reaching out across the world helping publishers and ecommerce businesses monetise their mobile traffic.</p>
<p><a title="Netbiscuits intro" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/web/10211/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a>, based in Kaiserslautern have been in mobile services since 2000. Since 2003 they have been managing major international customers. In 2006 they decided to integrate their highly specialized mobile Internet technology into one platform and make it accessible on the web, as they saw a potentially very big global market.</p>
<p><strong>Mobile market</strong></p>
<p>The 3G Mobile market can be split into three main segments:</p>
<ul>
<li>Services      &#8211; forecast to reach 22 Billion US$ in 2011 (<a title="Yankee Group" href="http://www.yankeegroup.com/home.do" target="_blank">Yankee Group 2008</a>),</li>
<li>Publishing      &#8211; expected to exceed 60 Billion by 2011 (<a title="Emarketer" href="http://www.emarketer.com/" target="_self">eMarketer 2007</a>)</li>
<li>Advertising      &#8211; is to reach 14 Billion US$ by 2011 (<a title="Emarketer" href="http://www.emarketer.com/" target="_blank">eMarketer 2007</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>Over the last few years the development of new devices like the <a title="Iphone" href="http://www.apple.com/uk/iphone/" target="_blank">iPhone</a> and latest models to come out of <a title="Blackberry" href="http://uk.blackberry.com/" target="_blank">Blackberry</a> have driven high expectations about the mobile market. As we have documented the way that we consume information has changed and will continue to do so. This has had a disruptive impact on the traditional businesses models of media like newspapers and magazines meaning that new sources of revenue are crucial. 3G mobile services have enabled people to get information direct to their device rather than through a newspaper or magazine creating a whole new arena of opportunity.</p>
<p><strong>Mobile versus PC</strong></p>
<p><a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a> have many high profile clients including <a title="Yahoo!" href="http://www.yahoo.co.uk" target="_blank">Yahoo!</a>, <a title="Bild" href="http://www.bild.de/BILD/news/bild-english/home/home.html" target="_blank">Bild</a>, <a title="Wall Street Online" href="http://europe.wsj.com/home-page" target="_blank">Wall Street Online</a>, <a title="ebay" href="http://www.ebay.com/" target="_blank">eBay</a>, <a title="Sixt" href="http://www.sixt.co.uk/" target="_blank">Sixt</a>, <a title="RTL" href="http://www.rtlgroup.com/www/htm/home.aspx" target="_blank">RTL</a> and <a title="Konami" href="http://www.konami.co.uk/" target="_blank">Konami</a>. Before implementing a Netbiscuits-based solution they all suffered technical translation issues. When a website that was built to be consumed on the PC is accessed via a mobile device then these technical translation issues do impact the user experience and the ROI that any media owner gets from the mobile traffic.</p>
<p><a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a> have been able to develop a software platform that helps businesses create mobile websites that can maximise their mobile traffic. The platform enables media owners to produce mobile portals that run on any mobile phone on the market. The Netbiscuits software platform provides a proprietary mobile handset database, automatic rich media conversion and on the fly rendering, making the mobile portals delivered are highly specialised per device solving the technical translation issues discussed earlier.</p>
<p><strong>Monetising mobile</strong></p>
<p>The <a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a> platform is very flexible and can improve the ROI of mobile traffic in many ways. With <a title="ebay" href="http://www.ebay.com/" target="_blank">eBay</a> Netbiscuits have offered users a platform where they can search products and manage or update their bids via their mobile device.  The eBay mobile team decided against giving users the ability to set up or change any of the details of their accounts. This was decided after analysing the consumer journey of several different mobile platforms and has been vindicated with significant growth of the eBay mobile platform helping to drive sales overall growth.</p>
<p>We are not able to quote any direct information from eBay but Lars Hartkopf Head of Marketing for <a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a> says “with the right installation media owners can see a traffic uplift of between 15% and 20%.”</p>
<p>As well as clients with ecommerce platforms publishers have made great use of <a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a>. Some use it purely to give them a mobile presence and to be able to monetise traffic through advertising. One aspect of the Netbiscuits’ technology allows rich media files to play and podcasts to downloaded to any mobile device creating very unique advertising propositions to be sold to the market. If we think about this in terms of two of the largest online publishers <a title="Times Online" href="http://www.timesonline.co.uk" target="_blank">timesonline.co.uk</a> and <a title="Guardian" href="http://www.guardian.co.uk" target="_blank">guardian.co.uk</a> who from my experience do not support video on their mobile sites, this creates a huge opportunity for publishers here in the UK. (These were accessed using a <a title="Blackberry Curve" href="http://uk.blackberry.com/devices/device-detail.jsp?navId=H0,C201,P583" target="_blank">Blackberry Curve 8310</a> and<a title="Blackberry Bold" href="http://uk.blackberry.com/devices/blackberrybold/" target="_blank"> Blackberry Bold 9000</a>)</p>
<p>The most interesting way that a publisher has used<a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank"> Netbiscuits</a>’ technology is traditional German newspaper publisher <a title="Bild" href="http://www.bild.de/BILD/news/bild-english/home/home.html" target="_blank">Bild</a>. They recognised that publishers need to create new forms of revenue and decided to use their mobile portal as a central part of this. As part of their mobile strategy they began selling SIM cards, as a virtual mobile network operator. With this SIM card surfing the Bild mobile website was free of charge. This boosted the traffic on Bild Mobile, generated additional ad revenue, opened up new opportunities for business development and cooperation, and made Bild Mobile one of the best performing mobile websites in Germany.</p>
<p>When we were speaking to <a title="Netbiscuits" href="http://www.netbiscuits.com/home" target="_blank">Netbiscuits</a> about this we could not believe our luck to find such an innovative way of using the mobile market to create new publisher income streams. This is exactly what we want to champion here at <a title="Business Media" href="http://businessmedia.co.uk/" target="_blank">businessmedia.co.uk</a> and <a title="Consumer Media" href="http://consumermedia.co.uk" target="_blank">consumermedia.co.uk</a>. Parallel to this we are firm believers in the Netbiscuits product if it can allow our UK publisher community to offer a solution to diminishing revenues from traditional media business models.</p>

</div>
<p>I popped in to the <a class="zem_slink" title="Manx Telecom" rel="homepage" href="http://www.manx-telecom.com">Manx Telecom</a> mobile shop along <a class="zem_slink" title="Strand Street (Cape Town)" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strand_Street_%28Cape_Town%29">Strand Street</a> on the Saturday before last just to have a look at the latest <a class="zem_slink" title="BlackBerry Bold" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlackBerry_Bold">Blackberry Bold</a> and what a nice piece of kit it is too.</p>
<p>I have been looking for a phone with wifi capability for a little while now plus I really liked my current Blackberry.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s also a toss up between a new Blackberry and Apples iphone, so I would regard myself as a reasonably warm to hot customer in terms of selling too.</p>
<p><strong>So here is the scenario.</strong></p>
<p>I walked in to the Manx Telecom shop on Strand Street.</p>
<p>The sales lady came over and asked if I needed any help, to which I answered &#8221; I am an exisitng cusotmer who is interested in the new Blackberry Bold and what were the terms on my contract?&#8221;</p>
<p>She went away and checked for me.</p>
<p>I was told that my current contract has several months to expire and if I wanted to have one I would need to pay the full price. I was fine with that and didn&#8217;t have an issue with it at all.</p>
<p>I then asked if I could purchase a <a class="zem_slink" title="iPhone" rel="homepage" href="http://www.apple.com/iphone">iPhone</a> at the Manx Telecom shop to which the reply was &#8220;we are working on it.&#8221; So I replied, &#8220;that&#8217;s a no then?&#8221; At this point the sales person got very uptight and went on the defensive saying that I was wrong to say that! So I asked the question again, &#8220;could I purchase an IPhone at the store?&#8221; She again repeated the same answer  &#8220;we are working on it.&#8221; At which point I replied &#8220;so that means I can&#8217;t buy one now then?&#8221;</p>
<p>The person then got all hot and bothered and admitted correctly that I couldn&#8217;t buy one but they were working on it in a rather abrubt and aggresive tone. By this time I was rather taken a back by both the level of service and the behaviour of the person in question &#8211; I left the store.</p>
<p>Now to me if this situation was to be replayed and I was the sales person I might have done things a little different.</p>
<p><strong>Firstly,</strong> I wouldnt have assumed that the because the customer owned a Blackberry already that the IPhone was for them! It might have been a gift?</p>
<p><strong>Next, </strong>I would have replied honestly and truthfully and not tried to be clever and simply replied &#8220;No they are not on sale at the moment, but we are hoping to get some soon.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>And finally, </strong>I would have asked if the cusotmer would like to give me there email address or contact details so that when the Iphones did come into the store they could contact the customer and let them know.</p>
<p>How easy is that, and how pleased would I be with that level of service &#8211; pretty chuffed if you ask me!</p>
<p>Sorry Manx Telecom, but you still have a lot to learn&#8230; and thats just the basics!</p>
<p>I went for a look in the Sure shop after that.</p>
<p>Since then the Iphone is on sale at Manx Telecom.</p>
<p>Sorry but they won&#8217;t be getting my custom after that experience!</p>

<p>I&#8217;m surprised to see how much faster the iPhone&#8217;s web browser (first generation, not the 3G version) is when compared with the BlackBerry Bold, unbelievable.  Wonder how it would match up if the iPhone 3G was used for comparison, should be lot more faster.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Tout bouge, dans l&#8217;univers fragmenté de la mobilité.  Les nombreux joueurs ont la répartie facile et Research in Motion (RIM) n&#8217;entend pas laisser sa place.  <a title="RIM blackberry" href="http://www.mobinaute.com/152260-rory-neill-rim-34-utilisateurs-blackberry-particul.html" target="_blank">L&#8217;entrevue de Roy O&#8217;Neill publiée dans Mobinaute.com</a> est instructive en terme de segmentation du marché et public des smarphones Blackberry.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://na.blackberry.com/eng/whyblackberry/" target="_blank">Blackberry est encore le  meilleur vendeur #1 </a>dans la catégorie Smarphones en Amérique du Nord.</li>
<li>34% des utilisateurs de blackberry (au trimestre dernier en Europe) étaient des non-entreprises (en croissance de 29% depuis l&#8217;année passée).  Ce fait est d&#8217;autant plus intéressant lorsque l&#8217;on tient compte de ces fameuses campagnes de notoriété des Blackberrys au sein du segment-jeunesse friand d&#8217;upload de vidéos, de multimédia et de jeux. Les opérateurs tentent de les attirer, notamment avec <a title="blackberry pearl" href="http://www.blackberrypearl.com/" target="_blank">le Blackberry Pearl</a> et les autres smartphones ayant<a title="blackberry pearl style" href="http://www.blackberrypearl.com/style/" target="_blank"> un style attrayant</a>.</li>
<li>La majorité des clients de Blackberry sont de Très petites entreprises (TPE), des PME et les grandes entreprises.</li>
<li>À l&#8217;origine, la fonctionnalité de Messagerie de courriel est la plus populaire auprès des utilisateurs Blackberry. Mais les fonctionnalités de CRM (customer relationship management) dans les domaines de  la finance et du secteur public se popularisent.</li>
<li>Au sein du grand public, ce sont les services d&#8217;accès à l&#8217;information (actus, réseaux sociaux, navigation) et le multimédia (musique, images, vidéos) qui sont les plus populaires.</li>
<li>Ce sont les opérateurs qui ont le grand pouvoir de décider quelles applications seront disponibles sur les appareils, selon <strong>Rory O&#8217;Neill, </strong>le directeur marketing pour la zone EMEA de la société Canadienne Research in Motion.</li>
<li>RIM a lancé en 2008 la campagne « Life on Blackberry » ralliant la marque aux évènements sportifs. L&#8217;ambition est ici d<em>e dire au monde entier qu&#8217;un téléphone mobile est aujourd&#8217;hui dépassé. Nous devons désormais passer aux smartphones avec les Blackberry, indique Rory O&#8217;Neill.<br />
</em></li>
<li><em>RIM attaque aussi avec le <a title="blackberry thunder" href="http://crackberry.com/exclusive-first-live-pics-blackberry-thunder" target="_blank">Blackberry Thunder</a>. étant un <a title="blackberry thunder" href="http://www.blackberrynews.com/2008/07/01/exclusive-blackberry-thunder-now-the-blackberry-9500-os-470/" target="_blank">blackberry muni d&#8217;un écran tactile,</a> une réponse au iphone&#8230;<br />
</em></li>
<li>Blackberry devient de plus en plus ouverte à leurs développeurs, en leur facilitant même l&#8217;accès aux salons et autres événements leur permettant de faire valoir leurs applications, et donc la marque. Quoi de mieux que les ambassadeurs pour parler au nom de RIM? Cet extrait témoigne de cette plus grande ouverture.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><em><strong>Au delà du fonds de 150 millions de dollars mis en place, comment RIM compte recruter de nouveaux développeurs avec une concurrence de plus en plus acharnée dans le monde des OS mobiles face à Mac OS X Mobile, Symbian Fondation, Windows Mobile ou Linux mobile ?</strong><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><em> Nous voulons faciliter la création d&#8217;applications en mettant en relation les développeurs avec les opérateurs mobiles. Nous nous chargeons également d&#8217;autoriser l&#8217;exploitation de notre de logo, nous mettons en place des campagnes de communication communes et nous assurons la présence de nombreux développeurs dans les salons ou autres évènements où ils peuvent mettre en avant leurs programmes. Enfin, nous apportons une grande importance à proposer un support de développement technique.<br />
