Hi!
Spring
is on its way! Many of you are on Spring or Easter Breaks
- the perfect time to sit back, catch up, and just have fun.
Here in Vancouver, Canada, Spring came a little early and
the sunshine is streaming through our windows as we speak.
It's
been busy around the office - there are many new faces around
and some exciting changes around the corner. Keep an eye on
ipipi and you will see it getting better and better over the
next couple of months.
Aside
from making our service as good as it can be, we're also offering
a great Spring Break Special for you to keep you busy texting
this Spring.
Happy
Easter!

Upside
Wireless and ZYB sign licensing deal
Upside
Wireless, the parent of ipipi, has just finished signing
a licensing deal with London-based ZYB.
ZYB
will be licensing the technology that makes ipipi go - it's
Upside's flagship product, the Wireless Information
Server (WIS for short). WIS is what enables ipipi
to connect to every country on the Planet
and provides the way for people to send SMS in a variety of
ways (web,
email,
mobile).
What
does ZYB get from licensing WIS? Well, it let's them go to
market quickly, easily, and cost effectively. ipipi and ZYB
together will be promoting SMS globally using the same leading
SMS technology platform. Everyone here at Upside Wireless
congratulates ZYB on their new business - we are looking forward
to seeing all ZYB's new services and to our continued relationship.
You
can read more about ZYB and this deal on
our blog.
A
new way to get service updates
Many
of you have been reading the ipipi
blog for news and opinions on SMS text messaging and industry
insight, but did you also know it's the best place to get
breaking news about service
updates?
Some
of you may have noticed that on March 21st there were outages
for some European networks (France, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium,
Sweden and some of Austria). This meant that SMS were not
getting to where they should go. As soon as we saw the problem,
it went on our
blog along with info on when service would resume and
a note that messages were queued and not lost.
Using
the blog is the easiest
and fastest way for us to let you know what is happening,
no matter where we are - home or work. Letting you know if
there is a problem is a big priority for
us. We try to minimize any problems there could be by having
the best network relationships we can, but sometimes things
happen that we cannot control.
If
you are ever think there is a problem, go
to our blog and check. All our service news will be on
both the home page
and the service
updates page. Looking there first may give you the answer
you are seeking. If not, check our help
pages for questions on common problems or contact
us if you think your problem needs attention. Who knows,
we might even thank you on the blog for letting us know!
Remember,
the ipipi blog is written
for ipipi customers, by ipipi employees.
We
want to hear what you think! Feel free to post a comment on
the blog anytime.
