@thetrainline what do I do if my ticket isn't showing in the app and I haven't received an email but the money has gone from my bank?

I'm going to @HdwPioneers Max 21, the annual gathering of IoT product innovators. Check it out at https://t.co/sfvFe0cObF #HWPmax21 #IoT

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

That’s beautiful.

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

Unbelievable. Finally after all these years. So bloody wonderful.

Using the #IoT can give us data immediately or within a specified time. Alerts from a remote device can avert disruption of a process, optimise the utilisation of an asset or avoid loss of property. How can your business benefit from using more data? https://t.co/J7oIanxUmt

@Hermesparcels I need to speak to a human please. My parcel hasn't been collected and your online system says it's in transit. None of your digital assistants have been any help

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

The truck roll cost to replace a SIM is often more than the tariff savings of switching operator. #eSIM and #iSIM changes that. That presents major opportunities for most cost effective IoT connectivity ...and major challenges for the economics of connectivity providers.

What tech are you considering as 2G networks close around the world? #2gclosure

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

Around 60% of #IoT on mobile networks was on 2G in 2019. Migrating that to alternative and new technologies such as #NB1, #Cat-M or even #SigFox, will be a challenge - never mind also delivering the forecasted market growth. Are you planning to migrate away from 2G? ➡️

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

#IoT is still a technology sale to businesses. It's time to democratise IoT for businesses by focusing on what you can achieve, not how it is done. The growth in IoT in the consumer market shows it can be done. It's not magic, but maybe it needs a wizard? 🧙‍♀️🧞‍♀️🧙‍♂️

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

#2G is still the most important network for the majority of installed cellular #IoT connections, but as #VoLTE/#5G grow carriers will retire 2G. We've pulled together the latest data on 2G closures around the world, so you can check if you're affected. https://t.co/4ZFTZIGhKl

Any interesting #digitaltransformation stories out there?

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

On #WorldTelecommunicationDay @itu is asking for people to tell their stories of #digitaltransformation in challenging times. How has #covid19 accelerated your digital transformation? #connect2030

[Vic de Smidt @vicdesmidt]

Who remembers back to the late 80s? #mobiledata

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

In recognition of #WorldTelecommunicationDay take a look at how the evolution of mobile has impacted #iot. What was your best memory of TACS, dial-up modems, Paknet and the early days of cellular? https://t.co/whDdHjY0Lf

@jimbobbennett @nathanbeveridge Remote control personal massager? I have to say this is one of the best threads I’ve read. Who’d have thought #teledildonics was a word other people used 🤣😂

[Vic de Smidt @vicdesmidt]

Understand how Apple and Amazon used your personal devices to build vast wireless networks. Here’s how they work. https://t.co/djIv8Hy1gq via @WSJ

[hyphabit @hyphabit]

Some key points here. Downward price pressure, sub 5Mb market growth & patchy digital transformation. We’re building to meet these challenges + democratise #iot

[Vic de Smidt @vicdesmidt]

Find out which networks are closing down their #2G networks. We missed off Sweden 😬 - let us know if anything needs updating! ✅
