Slim, a Major Prepaid Phone
Service
Player
Mexico's
Carlos Slim of America Movil
telecoms group, remained the
richest person on Forbes' 2013
annual ranking of billionaires
with a fortune of $73
billion.
••••
"To
see Carlos Slim again broaden his
lead and certify himself as the
richest man in the world is a
statement that wealth truly is
global and not an American
monopoly like it sometimes felt
for many decades.
One of
the biggest U.S. prepaid company,
with just over 21 million
customers, is TracFone Wireless
Inc. The company is a subsidiary
of Mexico's America Movil, owned
by Mexican mega-billionaire
Carlos Slim, who is leveraging
his long experience in Latin
America north of the
border.
••••
Low-cost
prepaid phone service has become
one of the hottest performers in
the U.S. wireless market. The
move toward prepaid cellphone
service in the United States is
starting to mimic a pattern that
has long been the rule in the
developing world. Prepaid
accounts for 95% of cellphone
handsets in India, 80% in Latin
America, 70% in China and 65% in
Europe, according to Chetan
Sharma, a Washington state
wireless
consultant.
••••
Growth
is spurring a wave of
international mergers. TracFone
Wireless Inc. is acquiring Simple
Mobile of Irvine, while Deutsche
Telekom's T-Mobile plans to merge
with MetroPCS. Japan's Softbank
Corp. is buying a 70% stake in
Sprint.
••••
Many
companies have begun to offer
upscale handsets using 4G
networks which has helped prepaid
shed its reputation for low-cost,
hard-to-track phones favored by
drug dealers on TV crime shows.
So-called burner phones are hard
to trace because their SIM cards
-- memory chips that activate the
handset -- can be store purchased
for cash, and the new owner
doesn't need to sign and be
bogged down with lengthy
contracts, phone charges they
couldn't predict, or get a credit
check.
••••
Prepaid
has moved quickly into the
smarter phones with more
sophisticated users and is really
challenging the
market.
••••
The
monthly cost of a prepaid phone
plan can run as low as $20 every
three months for bare-bones with
60 minutes of voice service, with
a $10 handset offered by
TracFone. Per-minute costs drop
with added usage, and unused
minutes can be banked for future
local or long-distance
calls.
••••
TracFone
doesn't have its own network of
cell towers and electronic
spectrum. Instead, it buys excess
capacity from the big four cell
companies. "People can get the
same phone networks for less than
half the price," saidTracFone's
chief executive and founder, F.J.
Pollak.

TracFone
Carlos Slim's TracFone under fire
as it expands in state
The
binational activist organization
Two Countries, One Voice is
calling for more California State
regulation.
••••
TracFone
Wireless Inc. a prepaid cellular
company controlled by Mexican
billionaire Carlos Slim is taking
fire as it moves to expand in the
lucrative California market.
Regulators say TracFone should
pay the state the same fees that
other telecom firms
do.
••••
The
Miami company is being bashed
publicly by activists on both
sides of the U.S.-Mexican border
because of what they call
monopolistic business practices
of its corporate parent, Mexico
City-based America Movil. Slim,
the company's chairman, is worth
an estimated $73 billion and tops
Forbes magazine's most recent
2013 list of the super
wealthy.
••••
California
regulators have been
investigating TracFone for more
than three years. In early 2012
the state Public Utilities
Commission ruled that the company
violated California law by
refusing to send the state
required service fees that it
should have been collecting from
customers.
••••
Officials
at the Public Utilities
Commission contend that TracFone
could owe them as much as $20
million. The company is appealing
the ruling to the state Court of
Appeal.
••••
Los
Angeles County lawmakers say they
expect to introduce a bill that
would give the state more
authority to regulate prepaid
cellphone companies such as
TracFone and approve proposed
mergers in the
future.
••••
TracFone
executive VP and general counsel
Rick Salzman said, "Our whole
program is to save people money,"
"We generally provide a
comparable service to our
competitors at a lower cost, and
it's less burdensome on the
customer as well, with no early
termination fees, no contracts
and no long-term
commitments."
••••
He
criticized the commission's
ongoing efforts to make TracFone
collect the so-called universal
service fees that traditional
wireless and land-line carriers
bill customers and remit to the
state to fund programs for the
deaf and disabled, the poor and
rural
residents.
••••
Most
phone companies add the fees,
which are small percentages of
the total bill, on monthly
statements. But prepaid services
"have no legal or practical way
to collect the fees" since the
minutes are bought at stores
before the calls are made,
Salzman
said.
••••
In a
lengthy legal proceeding the
Public Utilities Commission
rejected TracFone's arguments
that it merely resells cellphone
minutes purchased from other
companies.
••••
"TracFone
is ultimately responsible for
payment of these user fees," the
five commissioners unanimously
decided.
••••
The
amount of back fees that TracFone
could ultimately pay will be
decided in the second phase of
the proceeding. in
2013.
••••
In
the meantime, Salzman said, his
firm is remitting the fees under
protest.
••••
TracFone's
attitude toward regulators
underscores the need to bolster
the Public Utilities Commission's
authority to approve or reject a
prepaid cellphone merger,
especially when the company has
been fighting efforts to require
it to collect legally required
state fees.

/ May 17, 2010 / WASHINGTON (AP)
&emdash; The Supreme Court has
declined to take up a challenge
from cable television operators
to the 18-year-old requirement
that they carry local broadcast
stations on their
systems.
•• •
The justices rejected an
appeal Monday from Cablevision
Systems Corp. The court upheld a
federal "must carry" law, enacted
in 1992 when cable TV systems
faced much less competition than
they do
today.
•• •
Cablevision, the nation's
fifth-largest cable TV operator,
sued the Federal Communications
Commission over its ruling that
forced Cablevision to carry the
signal of a distant home-shopping
station on its Long Island cable
systems. The federal appeals
court in New York upheld the
FCC's
determination.
•• •
Cablevision said in court
papers that "the monopolistic
nature of the cable
industry...has been replaced by
vibrant
competition."

The Obama administration
urged the court to stay out of
the case. It noted that being
carried on cable systems "remains
critical to broadcast stations'
financial viability
generally."
•• •
C-SPAN, Discovery
Communications and Time Warner
Cable filed briefs in support of
Cablevision. C-SPAN said 12
million cables homes lost all or
some access to its programming
when cable operators were forced
to make room for broadcast
stations in the
1990s.

• •
The GPS
system -- with Google Android in
its corner, Verizon capitalizes
on the search giant's navigation
tools. The Droid, a rival to the
iPhone, is not only a chance for
Google and Verizon to shine, but
also troubled Motorola, which is
badly in need of a hit. (Verizon
Wireless)
•• •"No
matter how successful the Droid
is", says Troy Cory, there is
already a winner that has earned
money off of it. Or rather, just
from the "Droid" name.
•• •Motorola
had to license the smart phone's
name from a film company
dominated by one of the most
successful movie makers of all
time."
•• •Yes,
Lucasfilm Ltd., of "Star Wars"
fame, owns the trademark to
Droid. When it comes to GPS car
navigation, the new Droid phone
from Verizon Wireless could
change everything.
•• •That's
right -- from a Wireless
Telephone®™© that
first hit the marketplace in
1908.
•• •Mounted
to the windshield with an
optional holder, it provides a
voice-activated GPS system with
so much potential that mainstream
GPS companies may have to
scramble to catch up.
Someday.
•• •It's
not quite there, however, as a
consumer-friendly navigator. But
the possibilities for the Droid
as a GPS guide as well as a smart
phone are enticing.
•• •The
phone, which Verizon announced in
late October 2009, will go on
sale Nov. 6 for $199 (with a
two-year contract). It's the
first to be powered by Google
Inc.'s updated mobile software,
Android 2.0.
•• •The
navigation system, which is the
software's most prominent new
feature, is included in the base
price.
•• •With
Google in its corner, the Droid
can use the Web search giant's
excellent mapping and navigation
tools, including tracking down
addresses, finding businesses by
name, mapping routes and even
displaying real-life photos of
locales.
•• •And
of course it's a phone, too, with
features obviously designed to
challenge the king of

Microsoft has taken two parallel
routes in its operating systems.
One route has been for the home
user and the other has been for
the professional IT user.
•••
The dual routes have generally
led to home versions having
greater multimedia support and
less functionality in networking
and security, and professional
versions having inferior
multimedia support and better
networking and
security.[citation

•••
The first version of Microsoft
Windows, version 1.0, released in
November 1985, lacked a degree of
functionality and achieved little
popularity, and was to compete
with Apple's own operating
system.[citation needed]
Windows 1.0 is not a complete
operating system; rather, it
extends MS-DOS.
•••
Microsoft Windows version 2.0 was
released in November, 1987 and
was slightly more popular than
its predecessor. Windows 2.03
(release date January 1988) had
changed the OS from tiled windows

One
of the reasons the phones might not be
meeting the posted expectations, reported
the LA Times -- "is that Apple's
preproduction model tests were in
situations that rarely, if ever, reflect
the way real people use the iPhone."
•••
Check out the page on battery performance
tests on Apple's site.
•••
Here's how Apple reports it tested battery
life for surfing the Web over 3G:
•••
Internet over 3G tests were conducted over
a 1900MHz 3G network using dedicated web
and mail servers, browsing snapshot
versions of 20 popular web pages, and
receiving mail once an hour. All settings
were default except: Call Forwarding was
turned on; the Wi-Fi feature Ask to Join
Networks and Auto-Brightness were turned
off. Wi-Fi was enabled but not associated
with a network.
•••
David Sarno points out that "the S in 3GS
may stand for many things on this device
-- "sexy," "speed," "sweet" -- but it
certainly doesn't stand for "stamina."
•••
This, um, bonus "iDrain" feature of the
battery, as David writes, is proving to be
something of an Achilles' heel for the
device. The company's suggestions on how
to preserve battery life include, in
essence, turning off the very features
that make an iPhone an iPhone, including
the faster 3G network itself.
•••
Most folks who whip out their iPhones to
check something on the Web don't typically
go into settings to forward calls and shut
off auto-brightness and the Ask to Join
Network features. Nor do they typically
have a consistent signal or dedicated Web
and mail server.
•••
The day the 3GS was released, iFixit.com
dismantled the device and found that its
battery offered only a minimal increase
over its predecessor:
•••
Apple promises improved battery life with
the 3GS. The battery is listed as 3.7V and
4.51 Whr. This comes out to 1219 mAh,
compared to 1150 mAh on the 3G. That's
only a 6% increase.
•••
David goes into greater detail on why
packing sufficient power in limited space
for better battery life is such a
dilemma.
•••
Until that is resolved, I suppose most of
us will just have to keep staking out the
nearest outlets and pull up a piece of
carpet to keep connected while traveling.

Dan
Fost from San Francisco reported that the
companies did not release many specifics
about the deal, other than to say they
hope to develop products "to define a new
mobile platform beyond today's smart
phones, notebooks and netbooks."
•••"Cellphones
need powerful computers inside," Anand
Chandrasekher, senior vice president and
general manager of Intel's ultra mobility
group, said Tuesday. "It's natural,
therefore, that the leaders in computing
and communications come together."
•••The
move was hailed as a major step for Intel,
which has struggled to cash in on the
fast-growing demand for cellphones.
"Everybody who sells chips is keen to get
into the handset market," said Joseph
Byrne, senior analyst with the Linley
Group, a semiconductor research and
analysis consultant in Mountain View.
"More than a billion units ship every
year, much more than PCs."
•••Although
Intel and Nokia did not discuss specific
products, analysts presume they have their
sights on creating a gadget, as opposed to
retooling phones now on the market.
•••"Whatever
product we see come out of this
partnership is probably not something we
can see for one to two years," said Kevin
Burden, practice director for mobile
devices at ABI Research, an analyst firm
in New York. "These are two companies with
tremendous scale, tremendous research and
development budgets, and they have the
potential of building something new,
something revolutionary down the road. We
don't know what that is."
•••Burden
predicts that a new category of machine,
known as smart books or mobile Internet
devices, may yet evolve. Nokia already
tried its hand with its N810 Internet
tablet, a 5-inch device announced in 2007,
offering a small keyboard and constant
cellular connectivity. Instead, Burden
said, inexpensive laptops known as
netbooks took off, and Nokia went back to
the drawing board.
•••Similarly,
Intel had stalled in earlier efforts aimed
at expanding from personal computers into
the fast-growing field of mobile devices.
It sold its unit that made mobile chips
for $600 million in 2006.
•••The
time was not right earlier, executives for
the two companies said in a conference
call in mid-June 2009. "This is the time,"
said Kai Oistamo, Nokia executive vice
president for devices. "The mobile and
computing industries are coming
together."
•••The
Intel-Nokia alliance would compete with
chip makers Broadcom Corp. of Irvine and
Qualcomm Inc. of San Diego, which are
setting their sights on selling chips for
similar devices, Burden said.
•••Cory
stated that, "what would make the deal
really operational, would be an alliance
with the WiTEL Quality Control
Authority, (WTQCA) -- that would help
control the WiTEL phone number
assignment around the globe." It was in
1902, when the NBS WiTEL organization,
and its founder, Nathan B. Stubblefield,
"first set their sights on selling
wireless telephone numbers to the users of
the early-day NBS WiTEL devices,
including those folks standy in the
historical 1902 photos," -- said Cory.
Those pictured with NBS are: Houston,
co-founder of GE, Nikola Tesla, Collins,
the leaders of Westinghouse and AT&T.

That was a
question easier to answer when Thomas
Edison came up with the lightbulb and
Nathan B. Stubblefield handed the world
the mobile Wireless
Telephone®™©. Those two
hard-end products clearly fit with old
ideas of what it meant to invent something
physical under the USPTO laws between the
years of 1878, and 1905. In those years
copyrights, trademarks came first, then
patents. When once Registered, they were
filed with the international bureau in
Berne Switzerland. •

Virgin Mobile USA - Here's the
$483-million
Deal

- Sprint BuysVirgin Mobile - Sprint Nextel
to buy Virgin Mobile USA - Here's the
$483-million Deal
•••••
August 1, 2009 -- As Sprint Nextel Corp.,
the nation's third-largest wireless
provider, made an offer to buy Virgin
Moble, reported Troy Cory-Stubblefield,
CEO of NBS WiTEL®™©.
•••••
Virgin Mobile is the sixth-largest
provider of prepaid cellphone services,
with 5.2 million customers, and the
second-largest "virtual network" provider
-- meaning it uses another company's
network to transmit its calls.
•••••
British billionaire Richard Branson's
Virgin Group owns 28.3% of Virgin Mobile.
SK Telecom has a 15% stake that it
received as part of the Helio deal.
•••••
Sprint is the third-largest of the four
major wireless carriers, which together
control about 90% of the cellphone market.
It trails AT&T Mobility and Verizon
Wireless; T-Mobile USA is fourth.
•••••
The Overland Park, Kan.-based company
reported a loss of $384 million, or 13
cents per share, in the three months ended
June 30. That's larger than its loss of
$344 million, or 12 cents per share, a
year ago.
•••••
Sprint's revenue fell 10 percent to $8.14
billion from $9.06 billion a year ago.
•••••
Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters had
expected a loss of 2 cents per share on
lower revenue of $8.12 billion. Analysts
typically exclude one-time items from
their earnings estimates. The company
didn't report an adjusted earnings figure
that excludes one-time items.
•••••
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The AP news agency
reported on July 29th, 2009, that Sprint
Nextel Corp. was buying Virgin Mobile USA
Inc. for $483 million, further narrowing
the range of consumer choices for prepaid
cellphone service.
•••••
Sprint said it would pay $5.50 for each
Virgin Mobile share and assume up to $205
million in debt. Payment will be mostly in
Sprint shares. The Overland Park, Kan.,
company already owns 13.1% of Virgin
Mobile, which operates its cellphone
service over Sprint's
network.•

New Book Series to be Published. March 16,

81
years after Nathan B. Stubblefield's
death, (NBS) -- March 28, 1928, several
hundred chapters, and sections of
unpublished NBS writings, photos, and
drawings will be published by TVI
Publication's, on various Ask Priscilla

•••••
The
new book is all about Nathan B.
Stubblefield, Murray, Kentucky, his
family, his business
associates,"Teléph-on-délgreen,"
and NBS WiTEL®™©, the short
title for the Nathan's Wireless
Telephone®™©
Organization.
•
"Teléph-on-délgreen," the
college . . . .
•••••
Nathan
founded in 1907, is now the 10,000 student
campus of Murray State University, located
50 miles from the Mississippi River, and
192 miles from the birthplace of Abraham
Lincoln, 1809. Just 348 miles north, is
Hannibal, the town where the Tom Sawyer,
and Huckleberry Finn characters were
created by Mark Twain, (b: 1835 d: 1920),
when Nathan was just a boy. 200 miles west
is Louisville, the city where Thomas
Edison, (18471931) -- first became edicted
into the world of
elcctricy.
•••••
•
Affected by such literary works authored
within what Nathan called . .
.
•••••
"the
400 mile radius of délgreen," it
was an easy job for Nathan to put together
his first original 10 volume NBS text book
set, "Wireless Telephony," for the use by
students at his NBS industrial
college.
•••••
Virgin Mobile shares were up 25% on
Tuesday, jumping $1.07 to close at $5.28.
The company went public in October 2007 at
$15 a share. Sprint climbed 4 cents to
close at $4.59.
•••••
Virgin Mobile as the sixth-largest
provider of prepaid cellphone services,
with 5.2 million customers, it lags far
behind industry leader Tracfone Wireless
Inc., which has 12.5 million subscribers,
and it has been locked in a price war this
year while losing customers.
Prepaid Calling Plans
•••••
Prepaid plans were pioneered largely by
Virgin Mobile and other mobile virtual
network operators, which used
pay-as-you-go and inexpensive monthly
plans as the hallmark of their competitive
strategy.
•••••
But such operators have had a particularly
difficult time in the U.S. making a
business by leasing wireless spectrum from
the four major providers and then
competing with them. Such labels as
Disney, ESPN and Amp'd Mobile have fallen
as the network owners ramped up their own
prepaid efforts.
•••••
The virtual network model has been more
successful in Europe, where regulations
encourage competition.
•••••
"Virgin has been having difficulty getting
traction in an increasingly competitive
prepaid environment in recent quarters,"
Stifel Nicolaus analyst Christopher King
wrote in a report Tuesday.

• Part of the problem has been its
partner, Sprint,
--which unveiled a $50-a-month plan
for its prepaid Boost service in January,
undercutting Virgin Mobile's $80-a-month
offering. King noted that Virgin Mobile
launched a $49.99 monthly plan in April,
but Tracfone recently unveiled a
$45-a-month plan of its own.
•••••
The number of prepaid cellphone providers
has been shrinking as bigger players buy
up smaller rivals. A year ago, for
instance, Virgin Mobile bought Helio, a
small Westwood joint venture between
EarthLink Inc. and South Korean cellphone
carrier SK Telecom.
•••••
Helio brought to market an upscale device
that brought the advanced features of
South Korean cellphones to the U.S.
market.
•
Virgin Mobile felt compelled to sell
because
its
customer base was declining, the prepaid
space is getting much more competitive,
and it faced a $100-million debt maturity
at the end of next year that "we do not
believe it had enough free cash flow to
pay off," analyst Walter Piecyk of Pali
Research wrote in a report.
•••••
Dan Schulman, chief executive of Virgin
Mobile USA, is slated to run the combined
companies' prepaid services
operations.
•
The deal is subject to regulatory
approval
-- and the approval of Virgin Mobile's
shareholders. Sprint
said the deal, which it expects to
complete late this year or in early 2010,
should enable it to make further inroads
into the fast-growing market for prepaid
cellphone service.
•••••
"Prepaid is growing at an unprecedented
rate with consumers keenly focused on
value," Sprint Chief Executive Dan Hesse
said. "Virgin Mobile is an iconic brand in
the marketplace that will complement our
Boost Mobile brand."
