"As part of our ongoing developments, Telnic will soon be launching a new look for .tel names on smart phone devices, such as the iPhone, Android and BlackBerry.
Here is a sneak preview of an example smartphone view with new fonts, background colours and icons to make it easier to use contact information with your .tel:
Your logo or photo will be shown as well – so make sure that you optimize your logos for mobile devices as they can significantly increase the page weight, load time and, if on pre-paid contracts, the cost."
(Telnic July newsletter)
"...a new improved interface that will offer more functions for advanced users, and will help those new to .tel enjoy their experience.
Over the next few months, functional updates will be minimal while we focus on improving the user flow and delivering the new interface. We will keep the community informed on the progress and roll-out of this important product enhancement through future issues of the .telegraph and on the Telnic forum."
(Huw Stead, Engineering Director, at Telnic / Telnic August newsletter)
"You might notice a small difference on your .tel pages today if you've got a smartphone. Any ghosts in the machine, let us know telnic.tel"
(Justin Hayward at Twitter)
"...tolle Überraschung, die du da verkündest!
Der neue .Tel-Look funktioniert auf meinem iPhone super und es macht nunmehr eine Riesenfreunde damit .tel-Domains aufzurufen.
Bin überzeugt, dass damit die Attraktivität und Akzeptanz einer .Tel-Domain für den Betrachter deutlich gestiegen ist!"
(Kay Thee, at the Tel-Domain-Forum.de)
(Translation:
"...great surprise, as you proclaim!
The new. Tel-look works great on my iPhone and it's now a great pleasure to dial .Tel domains.
I am convinced, that the attractiveness and acceptance of a. Tel-domain has increased significantly for the viewer!")
Comments:
The last days, Huw Stead, had been visiting the Telnic forum, but hadn't posted anything, leaving the gross of the .Tel holders uninformed about the improved interface of .Tel on mobile phones, and leaving them quasi "standing in the rain".
I notice poor communication skills, with all Telnic directors... -I thought, .Tel was about communication, and not website content...
About three .Tel tweets had announced the enhancement of the .Tel mobile interface, from which one tweet was coming from Justin. However, if you happend to miss out those tweets, which is very much likely to be, than you did not get a chance to get informed.
The .tel Roadmap had neither been updated to "done"/green, as far as I could see.
