Peter Tim McIntyre, Beta Tester of the Month for August / Samsung U600 Now Supported!Submitted by peter on September 11, 2007 - 4:35pm.
My campaign for more supported phones did have one giant success, largely in part to Tim McIntyre, who never gave up in his testing of EQO on his Samsung U600. For this triumph, Tim will be receiving an EQO prize pack! Congratulations Tim! If you have a Samsung U600, sign up! If your phone is not on the supported list (and it is not a Palm!), please send me an email at peter@eqo.com and I can help you get testing. Peter Philippe-Henri Bazire--Beta Tester of the Month for JuneSubmitted by peter on July 11, 2007 - 3:46pm.
Yeah, I know it is July--and that it has been July for a quite some time now--but I can't just blow off June. June was an exciting month at EQO. The first month after launching a new product is always a busy time and June was no exception. This first month is always the month were the most bugs are found on any Beta program. This translates into a lot of work for beta testers. Thanks to the efforts of our users, we have fixed a lot of bugs--thanks for the help everybody! Speaking of EQO users, Philippe-Henri Bazire of Switzerland is probably the hardest working Beta tester we have ever had. He has tried fruitlessly to get EQO on his Nokia 6170. Every time he tries to download the file he gets an error message that says "invalid file type". Are there any Nokia 6170 users out there in EQOland who have advice for Philippe? He would really like to see this work on his 6170. On the bright side, Philippe has had success with his Nokia 6234. So he has had a taste of what EQO has to offer. For all his hard work, Philippe will be receiving one of the hottest prizes out there--an EQO Prize Pack! Woot! Peter Beta Tester for the Month of May: Poul Sorensen!Submitted by christine_eqo on June 5, 2007 - 3:39pm.We are happy to announce EQO Communications’ Beta Tester for the Month of May: Poul Sorensen of Denmark!
His efforts have earned him this prestigious award, and for this reason, we have decided to summarize his accomplishments in the form of an … acronym. P – persevering To start, in a span of two weeks, Poul has spent over 80 hours and has visited over 100 different homepages and forums in hopes of getting EQO Mobile on his cell phone because T-Mobile currently only provides the Midlet manager 1.0 in there update Rom to MDA PRO (Qtek 9000 and HTC universal). Ten hours of his life went to finding an alternative to the free Midlet from IBM, when he finally bought system tweaks to get command over the installation, and six hours went to reinstalling the whole setup for the program. If that’s not a trooper, I don’t know what is.
O – offers to help anyone and everyone. Due to his unwavering dedication, Poul has even gone so far as to helping other users discover the benefits of EQO. Recently in the forum, Poul has helped comment on a Request for a bit more "technical" information, and has given his personal testimony of paying only a quarter of what his phone bill used to be thanks to EQO! U – ultimation. What does this mean, you ask? Well according to the dictionary definition: Ul`ti*ma"tion\, n. State of being ultimate; that which is ultimate, or final; ultimatum. [R.] --Swift. Enough said. L – linguist Not only can this man speak English, but he can also translate German! For each EQO User out there, we sincerely appreciate all of your help and look forward to having you stay involved as we continue to improve our services and features. Your feedback has a huge impact on our priorities, so please let us know if there’s anything we can do to help. We look forward to hearing from you! Cheers, Christine Lars Oliver Dam: Beta Tester of the Month--AprilSubmitted by peter on May 7, 2007 - 1:34pm.
Lars Oliver Dam has been testing out EQO Mobile on his Sharp GX17. Well, maybe testing isn’t quite the right word. Lars Oliver Dam didn’t make it to the testing stage, as he got stuck trying to get EQO mobile on his phone. First off, the text message never arrived on his phone. Secondly, when he tried http://www.eqo.com/a, he got an error that said that the download was too big. What's more, when he tried to Bluetooth the file over to his Sharp, the .jar file was accepted, but the .jad was rejected. Lars has earned this award by keeping a positive attitude while patiently trying every method known to Man for downloading EQO Mobile onto his phone. In the end, we both decided that his mobile phone model could not be supported by this version of EQO Mobile. Personally, I believe that our next release will work on Lars’ phone (because we are adding new and improved methods of download), but we’ll just have to wait and see! There are hundreds of phones on the market today. At EQO, we can’t possibly test all of these models ourselves. Although I would like to try out every phone, some devices are not accessible or affordable enough for us to get our hands on. This is where the EQO community plays a huge role in our success. Anytime I get a report from a Beta tester claiming success or failure I can either add it to our growing list of supported phones or I can cross it off our wish list. And even though the failures are disappointing to hear about at the time, they are still valuable for the data that they provide to us for future development.
