Nokia marries WLAN and cell networks
Wednesday November 02nd 2005, 7:00 am Category: Unrelated news

A bit unrelated to 770 itself, but everyone seemed to point out the fact that 770 did not have any cellular connectivity. CommsDesign says:

Nokia said Tuesday that it has passed a significant milestone by completing voice and data calls using Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) technology. UMA is a technology that cellular operators can use to seamlessly transfer voice and data calls from cellular to wireless LAN networks. It enables, for instance, a voice call to automatically switch from the cellular network to a wireless VoIP system.

People who complain about lack of cell phone access on the 770 do not get what the 770 is. It is part of a breed of devices that are designed to work with other devices, so that each device can have the UI specically tuned for it’s use. See my blog, under the entry Symbiosis. Or, read the 770 manual.
