Not sure about this use case. Add in family and it may make sense. "phone sharing is extremely common and necessary, so the new Nokia 1280 features five separate phone books, designed specifically so five different people can comfortably use it (first seen on the Nokia 1202) – split that 20 Euros between five members of a community and it becomes a 4 Euro device of sorts.
Shared contacts are not the same as multiple sims or ways to figure out the bill and who pays. Privacy if incorporated may add to this although again the same number in multiple contact lists will make message sorting difficult. Now who was that missed call for?

When you don't have much setting targets and goals is the only way to get there. It's also something that you work on daily and the money inflow is likely to be daily. So savings becomes real-time rather than a one a month deduction. That SMS can encourage savings is important to emerging market money systems.

Well so you want to sell some stuff at the local market. You need a credit card reader. Looks like this could be a neat way to put one in everyone's hands. Interesting thing is…. If you get that sort of distribution the whole reader in the jack thing can just disappear. Presume there is no reason why the tech couldn't work on any phone.

I've not seen this in action although I saw iPod's being used in the Tate Modern Gallery the other day in London for use by visitors – the audio experience. I thought then if the cost is appealing for that then we are going to see a lot more. Plus it's familiar. So when I see this I begin to wonder how many stores could use it to simply replace their register. Another example of where the iPod/iPhone platform is morphing faster than the others.

I restored my iPhone to stock after returning from India. I felt it had become unstable and slow. That killed my unlocked status. With more trips on the horizon I just keep an eye open for the latest iphone unlock. BlackSn0w was the simplest yet and took less than five minutes. In my case I really don't want to be bothered unlocking my iphone. After almost 3 years with AT&T you would think they would just unlock it for me. Their overseas rates are extortionate and so it is only natural I want to bypass their services when overseas. The result… I actively try and save mega dollars and spend a few dollars elsewhere. I dislike them more as a company too… in fact resent them as part of my relationship with them. That's bad for business.
