Day 100 of Mobile Research
A lot has happened in the last 99 days of Mobile Research. I am really amazed at how much we have learned about mobile devices. The three of us new a lot about developing for mobile phones going into this but the scope of what we have found has suprised us a little. And we were anticipating it a well. Still suprised. The good news/outcome of this is that our product is going to be a very comprehensive set of data of mobile phone data.
We are still narrowing in on a launch of our "Mobile Device Data" product. We have expanded the scope of the product quite a bit, which obviously takes much more time, be we and our customers are going to be a lot happier with it.
We've been putting our corporate/dev network as well as our data center together, buying more phones, writing test cases and test tools, use cases, customer documentation, and profiling a lot of phones iteratively. Lots of work done, but still a lot of work to do. We could sure use another 3 or 4 guys.
On the business development side, things are going great. We've had a ton of interest, both locally and internationally. I get 5-6 unsolicited requests a week for information just from Europe. We have had a ton of interest from UK companies who want to know when the database will be available for the UK. The plan right now is to start profiling phones for the UK in late June. Hopefully that will be complete sometime in July. It's looking like it is going to be a busy, yet fun summer.
