How 3 mobile is Going From the Very Worst to the Very Best Mobile Phone Network

Are 3 mobile going from one of the worst to one of the best mobile phone and broadband companies in the UK?Three, the late-comer to the mobile phone industry being the UK's No.1 Mobile Telecoms Company in the next 10 years?

Seriously, let me explain what tricks 3 mobile has up their sleeve. The telecoms giant Hutchinson Whampoa is the owner of 3 and is famous for blowing a load of cash on the 3G licenses 10 years ago.

3 mobile won the www.top10-broadband.co.uk 2009 Best Value Mobile Broadband Award for their Mobile Broadband Max product, as well as host of other awards from other contests you can check out in the links at the bottom. 3 mobile is building the world's most sophisticated network and it is designed specifically to carry data. Just take a look at their current deals.Even with a pay-as-you-go SIM only deal (cost: £0.00) once you top up you get unlimited 3-to-3 mobile phone calls, unlimited Skype-to-Skype calls to other Skype users across the globe, free texts, unlimited Windows Live Messenger Chat, and more.If you look at their contract mobile phone deals you'll be even more pleasantly surprised (I won't ruin the surprise by revealing it here!). Every device they sell is internet equipped. This means applications such as VOIP, instant messenger and social networking can be given away at little cost while being worth a great deal to the consumer.

This phenomenon can be seen in front of your eyes as demand for USB broadband dongles takes off and is a huge revenue generator as customers are very willing to pay for such services.The 3 Skype phone is a magnificent example of 3 being very innovative in service provision. This also demonstrates they don't mind lowering prices for users. I imagine everyone else could see the possibility of using Skype but shied away from it. Leveling the regulatory playing field is one of the major corporate emphases for 3 mobile.

3.Com is promoting a new style of internet based telephony and data access via their 3Store and affiliates. 3.Com has a different business model of making everything online. Getting rid of the old regulation will mean they're method of using the Internet to route all traffic will be even more cost effective.Mobile regulation goes back to the 19th century and is not as accommodative as it could be to the new way of communicating via the Internet. Currently, calls are charged by the minute and other services added on top.This isn't the most efficient way to do it. By removing the regulation called 'mobile termination rates', users could be getting much cheaper cross network rates. 3 mobile are trying to dismantle the old regulations and I'll get cheaper deals as a result so I'm all for it. More than 100,000 people have signed the 'Terminate the Rate' petition and hopefully this will further 3's ability to provide even cheaper data access in to the new decade.
