Last day of class. I have learned very much by taking this class. Thanks to my professor Dr. Hal Smith and my class mates in both groups that I participated with. I have to say it’s been a pleasure.
I’m glad that there was no class this evening. My car engine went and I am looking for another car. Thanks once again Josh for taking me home. I hope that I can find a car soon before the next term starts.
I have a dinosaur cell phone. First I had Cingular and they turned into AT&T. The only reason for the existence of me to have a cell phone in the first place is to call AAA when my car breaks down. AT&T sent a letter that they will no longer carry the old analog lines and digital was taking over. So they are sending me a free phone Nokia 6102i but with two years on the contract. So I was searching the net trying to see if I would be able possibly experiment and custom program somewhat.
Here was an interesting article that I came across.
Customers call 40 to 50 times a month to Sprint and they cancel 1,000 contracts
Apparently from reading this it seems Sprint had to cancel one thousand contracts. They claim it cost Sprint more to pay the customer service people. (Are they in India just like AOL ?) Maybe this was because of an inherit bad internal phone design? More dropped calls?? Or just terrible and not well trained customer service??? (Can you please repeat in English just a little better?) Maybe they had dinosaur phones just like me???? They don’t really specify the reason other than these people being not happy with their elite Sprint service and calling forty to fifty times a month.
So back to what I originally wanted to search the net for. The one article that I came across
after mentioned MIDP 2.0 which is Mobile Information Device Profile. Then after a few more searches and I found the wireless toolkit. It is a JAVA platform.
