Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

Wi-Ex Salutes Dealer For Communications Work in Haiti

By: Business Wire
Jun. 3, 2010 02:52 PM

Wi-Ex (www.wi-ex.com), the leading provider of consumer cell phone signal boosters, is proud to recognize one of its top dealers for their disaster recovery work in Haiti. Ari Zoldan, CEO of Quantum Networks, LLC (www.Quantum-Wireless.com), traveled to Haiti in January as a communications specialist volunteer and used Wi-Ex's zBoost Dual Band to help strengthen signal in the area and keep those affected by the disaster connected to the outside world.

"Based on my volunteering experience in third-world countries including Haiti, companies such as Wi-Ex can add significant value to disaster relief situations. During my stay in Haiti we were off the grid so we were able to use a wind turbine to power the device and seamlessly have signal allowing connectivity to both voice and data. I left the zBoost installed so that the residents of that area can stay connected to the outside world during this difficult time," said Zoldan. "After seeing the zBoost at work in a real life crisis situation, I can see how the product can be utilized in other parts of the world during disasters and emergencies."

Wi-Ex provides disaster management officials with solutions to help boost cell phone signal in areas of weak service for personal and public safety issues including disaster areas, campuses, health care facilities, safety and emergency vehicles, and public parking decks.

"We were pleased to be able to help Ari on his mission in Haiti. Consumers all over the world rely on their cell phones as an essential communications tool. This was clearly demonstrated in the recent disasters in Haiti and Chile. The mobile user in developing countries rely on their mobile phone as their portal to the world, and without that signal they are isolated from communicating with the outside world,” said Lloyd R. Meese, CEO of Wi-Ex.
