Telecom NZ and Vodafone today said they had reached an agreement to resolve interference issues that prompted Vodafone to go to the High Court to stop Telecom NZ launching its new mobile WCDMA network.
Optus today said that its move to start selling the Android-based HTC Dream would not see its 3G mobile network suffer congestion as it had appeared to when it launched the iPhone in mid-2008.

The Eee is now faster, looks nicer, and has better battery life. It's also heavier and the keyboard is still too small, but we like it. A lot.
The ASUS Eee PC 900 is an excellent update to the Eee PC 701. The keyboard is still difficult to use, but the addition of a larger, higher-resolution screen, a multi-touch touchpad and more storage gives it the edge over its mini-notebook rivals.
The One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project is unique as the XO laptop it distributes. While the XO is not commercially available, our review provides an insight into what can be achieved in a laptop designed for children at a very low cost.
