Telstra and Nokia has teamed up for a new BlackBerry enabled Nokia handset that will provide users with access to "always on" e-mail solution via a mobile phone.
Telstra's unions have decided to approach the telco's institutional investors to put the bad word on Telstra's senior management in the lead up to its annual general meeting.
Telstra this morning launched a multi-million dollar network operations centre to manage the enterprise networks of 1,100 corporate Telstra customers who have paid for the premium service.
Telstra customers will receive the same service telco companies have been providing the law authorities for years, the ability to track people's location by their mobile phone.

The mobile market in India, I recently learned, is racing towards 300 million -- and doing so at a rate of 8.77 million new subscribers per month, according to the latest government figures.
A guy I know runs a tiling business, which as far as I can see involves his drinking lots of coffee, making lots of phone calls, and making sure that around a dozen different tilers do the actual hard work. As long as they're busy, he's making money. If he finds enough new business to keep them all going for two weeks, he can take off for Hawaii -- and still be making money.
The men running Telstra have been accused of a lot of things, but lack of conviction is definitely not one of them.

Friends, industry watchers, readers; I come not to bag Telstra, but to praise it. The evil that telcos do often lives on after their Investors Days, while the good is often lost during interminable speeches.
As the place where all legislation governing New South Wales originates, NSW Parliament has more than your basic obligations when it comes to ensuring the security of its data. But how can a small government department, with just five network staff looking after a main office and network of 94 branch offices spread across the country, ever hope to keep up?
Given the frantic activity and unpredictable movement of all kinds of hard objects within the pit, it's little surprise that the Holden Racing Team recently standardised on Panasonic's ruggedised Toughbook as its notebook platform of choice.
Most businesses see PowerPoint as the be-all and end-all when it comes to distributing information. As David Braue finds, however, Fone Zone's willingness to look further has paid many benefits.
Many times, service providers don't know anything has gone wrong until they're hit by a flood of user complaints. Such was the case for Telstra when its BlackBerry wireless e-mail service in Sydney came crashing down one day.
We look at five organisations that took different approaches to satisfying a common business requirement: to improve the management of corporate information. We hear from Jetstar, Family Court, SHFA, Count Wealth and MBF.
ZDNet correspondent Sumi Das talks with Senior Editor Sam Diaz about the perks and pitfalls of the newly released browser from Google. Diaz also reveals why Sergey Brin is bugging the Chrome team on a daily basis.
Fancy a 1.3Mbps broadband pipeline direct to your notebook, without a cable in sight? The new BigPond wireless data card makes good on Telstra's lofty promises for its Next G network.
