Tom CF,

<< Is there a web site that tracks sales of kinds of mobile phones? >>

If there is, I do not know of it. Wish I did.

<< To be specific, I'd like to estimate the sales of communicator phones in general, and the 92x0 in particular. >>

I too would be most curious about that. 92x0 probably early since it has just gone (or is about to go) into general distribution across the pond.

re: GSMA Mobile Services Initiative (M-Services) Reference Guideline

GSM Association's Scott Fox described this document as a technical wish list, "a reference guideline for handsets," for GPRS handset vendors and service platform providers.

Title: M-Services Guidelines Version 3.0.0 - 37 Pages

gsmworld.com

Intro:

>> The GSM community is waiting for WAP 2.0 (that will be commercially available in the year 2002); however the standard will not be exhaustive because it is not going to explain how customers can use the services they are offered during their navigation.

Basic elements for M-Services are:

* WAP June 2000 Conformance Release

* WAP 2.0 (for WML2 / XHTML Basic & provisioning)

* Graphical User Interface

* Download of media objects

* Multimedia Messaging - MMS, and optionally E-mail

* Enhanced Messaging Service - EMS

* SIM Application Toolkit

* SyncML for vCard and vCal

Most of the above-mentioned services are based on standards; should any "ad hoc" implementation be required, the correct interworking with the standard has to be guaranteed.

This document specifies the desired minimum requirements to meet a mass-market marketing launch campaign of M-Services for end November 2001. To reach the desired timeframe implementation of the feature roadmap as provided in Section 1.3 is required. Migration to fully standards based solutions is an essential medium term requirement (WAP 2.0). <<

BTW: Finally figured out pJava (Communicator) is Persional Java, but haven't figured out what kJava is.
