		<description><![CDATA[Remember Snake? When I brought my first mobile phone, a Nokia 5110, this game was the premier &#8216;app&#8217; of the day. The concept was simple: steer your snake around the screen at increasing speeds, eat dots (which make you grow), and don&#8217;t hit the walls or your tail. Like many easy-to-play but difficult-to-master games it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Competitors behind the times when it comes to offering better value</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We were interested to <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/article-1389423/BT-cut-cost-calls-mobiles-weekend.html#ixzz1NC3Ec5ma " target="_blank"><strong>hear</strong></a> that <strong>BT </strong>was calling on its competitors to match its prices for <strong>landline calls to mobiles</strong> because at <a href="http://www.talktalk.co.uk/" target="_blank"><strong>TalkTalk </strong></a>we more than match them - in fact, we’ve been offering much <strong>cheaper rates</strong> for some time and are still better value than BT even after this latest price change.

		<title>The death of the text message?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We were interested to read the Daily Mail’s article this week predicting the death of the text message within a generation.

It chimes with similar predictions we made way back in 2009 about the eventual demise of email. Indeed the Daily Mail quoted from our report to suggest that both the text and the email may eventual slide into the technological dustbin of history.]]></description>
