AT&T’s Digital Life House Automation/Security System To Debut In 8 Markets In March
Author: Tech Blogger
CES hasn’t even really started yet, but currently some prevailing themes of the program have begun to arise– I’m talking about tech that helps tie together unalike systems in your house into a a single, mobile-friendly experience. LG has currently revealed off its vision, complete with NFC-enabled ovens and washing machines that send diagnostic details to your smartphone, however AT&T’s Digital Life takes things in a various direction.
Put just, Digital Life is equal parts home automation and safety system, with users able to deceive out their domiciles with cameras, appliance/lighting controls, door locks, as well as thermostats. AT&T is preparing to provide these devices in preset plans satisfied people’s specific requirements. A water bundle, for example, is tailored towards finding dampness and managing water flow must a hole be identified, while the energy bundle focuses mostly on from another location managing lights and appliances. While the initial setup has to be done by a third-party installer, users could later on tailor their own house load-outs by adding and subtracting components as required.
Sure it ’ s a slightly kooky transfer to see from a business that most people relate with phone service, but the biggest upshot right here? Utilizing the Digital Life system does not actually need individuals to have an AT&T phone/contract or broadband strategy. As Jon Fingas at Engadget notes, it ’ s a strictly “ go-between ” service. AT&T expects to roll out its Digital Life system to eight initial markets in March, with up to another 50 being prepped for launch by the end of the year.

AT&T’s hostile FaceTime restrictions likely don’t violate FCC rules
Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Washington DC-based interest group Public Understanding released a short press release this evening stating its displeasure with AT&T’s decision to restrict FaceTime over cellular– a new feature in iOS 6– to subscribers selecting its new Mobile Share plans, arguing that the company is “violating the FCC’s Open Internet regulations.” Right here’s the full statement from senior personnel attorney John Bergmayer:
By blocking FaceTime for many of its clients, AT&T is violating the FCC’s Open Net guidelines. These rules state that mobile providers shall not ‘prevent applications that contend with the supplier’s voice or video recording telephone services.’ Although carriers are allowed to engage in ‘reasonable network management,’ there is no technical explanation why one …

Sprint Preps White EVO 4G LTE For Launch, While AT&T’s Galaxy S III Sees Red
Author: Brandon Zimmerman
For a certain set of phone geeks, the complication with having a favored flagship device is that plenty of other people will wind up with the exact same thing. After all, it ’ s a shown fact — your phone isn ’ t cool if everybody else has one too.
That ’ s where carrier-exclusive color choices are available in, and both AT&T and Sprint have picked today to spill the beans on their most up-to-date chromatically-tweaked phones — AT&T ’ s red Galaxy S III and Sprint ’ s white EVO 4G LTE.
AT&T hasn ’ t had much to state about their brand-new, exclusive red Galaxy S III since their original announcement, however now they ’ ve let loose with some new details. According to the carrier, the 16 GB version of the garnet red gadget will be accessible for pre-order starting on July 15 (read: this Sunday, together with the pink Lumia 900) for the normal $ 199.
Sad to say, there ’ s no word yet on whether AT&T plans to release a 32GB style like everybody else has actually done, but that ’ s nothing some cheapo microSD cards can ’ t fix.
Sprint ’ s announcement is a little more unusual, a minimum of in that they didn ’ t go promoting its existence right from the get-go. Longtime readers could remember that I ’ m something of a sucker for white phones, however it seems as though this brand-new variant sports some redesigned trim to boot — instead of the red band and kickstand lined up horizontally along the Evo ’ s back, Sprint and HTC have actually picked a more staid silver instead. Unlike AT&T ’ s chromatically-curated option though, the white Evo 4G LTE will be offered through all sales channels on July 15 — no pre-orders required.

AT&T’s Samsung Focus 2 announced: Windows Phone with LTE for $49.99 on May 20th
Author: Natalie Wood
The long-rumored Samsung Mandel is finally official for AT&T as the Focus 2, an LTE-enabled Windows Phone for AT&T. Features include a 5-megapixel camera with 720p video capture, 4-inch Super AMOLED display, front-facing VGA cam for video calling, and (of course) LTE support — though at 10.98mm thick, it’s not exactly keeping pace with the thinner smartphones on the market. The Focus 2 joins Nokia’s Lumia 900 and HTC’s Titan II as AT&T’s LTE-capable Windows Phones, but this one is the cheapest upfront: it’ll launch for $ 49.99 on contract on the 20th of this month in “pure white.”

Nokia Lumia 900 currently sold out on AT&T’s site, still available on Amazon
Author: Melissa Shroeder
We’ve heard from AT&T that sales of the Nokia Lumia 900 are“exceeding expectations,” though it isn’t saying exactly how many have been sold so far. If AT&T’s site is to be believed, the Lumia 900 is selling so well that it’s out of stock. We’ve heard similar claims from some AT&T retail stores recently, as well. While that certainly helps back up AT&T’s claims, it’s worth noting that the handset is still available from Amazon Wireless. The fact that the Lumia 900 is out-of-stock at AT&T might be related to good sales, but it’s also possible that AT&T is removing the phone from its online store due to the data connection problems that have plagued this handset’s launch. That said, with a software update rolling out to fix those data…

Sources: AT&T’s Lumia 900 ad budget is lower than $150m
Author: Sriram Reddy
The Verge has learned from sources familiar with the matter that AT&T’s actual marketing budget for the Lumia 900 — a flagship device for Nokia, Microsoft, and AT&T alike — is nowhere near the “as much as $ 150 million” figure floated in an Ad Age report yesterday. It’s actually lower, more in line with what AT&T would expect to spend on any high-profile device launch. In light of that, AT&T doesn’t seem to be banking on the Lumia to counter any perceived threat from its loss of iPhone exclusivity. Ad Age noted a comScore report suggesting that Verizon’s smartphone penetration is growing far faster than AT&T’s, but in reality, AT&T is still well ahead: 56.8 percent to 44 percent among postpaid subscribers. According to both carriers’…

AT&T’s 3G MicroCell ‘full of fail’ thanks to wide open root access, claims fail0verflow
Author: Melissa Shroeder
Most AT&T customers don’t have to worry about the 3G MicroCell — it’s a femtocell, a device designed specifically to create a small cloud of 3G cellular coverage using your wired internet connection, which means you only need it if your home or office doesn’t have enough signal to reliably hold calls. For those who do need it, though, it can be a lifesaver and the only thing stopping customers from leaving for another network.
Hacker group fail0verflow — best known for unveiling the PlayStation 3′s private key, allowing arbitrary programs to be run by users — has turned its attention to the MicroCell, detailing its findings in a recent blog post. In a word, Cisco (which makes the MicroCell for AT&T) seems to have done some sloppy…

FCC responds to AT&T’s harsh language over T-Mobile layoffs: ‘merger would have resulted in significant job losses’
Author: Angela Chin
When AT&T’s Jim Cicconi took the FCC to task for its recommendation against the T-Mobile acquisition, the FCC swiftly responded — on Twitter, no less. Cicconi was back at it earlier today, pointing to T-Mobile’s announcement of 1,900 net layoffs and suggesting they didn’t have to happen if only the Commission had let the acquisition go through. Once again the FCC has responded to the company’s harsh language, though with more measured, data-driven language this time:
In a short period of time, T-Mobile has re-emerged as a vibrant competitor in the mobile marketplace. Competition benefits all wireless consumers. The bottom line is that AT&T’s proposal to acquire a major competitor was unprecedented in scope and the company’s own…
