One of the basic concepts in data communication is the idea of allowing several transmitters to send information simultaneously over a single communication channel. This allows several users to share a bandwidth of frequencies. This concept is called multiplexing. CDMA employs spread-spectrum technology and a special coding scheme (where each transmitter is assigned a code) to allow multiple users to be multiplexed over the same physical channel. By contrast, time division multiple access (TDMA) divides access by time, while frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) divides it by frequency. CDMA is a form of “spread-spectrum” signaling, since the modulated coded signal has a much higher data bandwidth than the data being communicated.

An analogy to the problem of multiple access is a room (channel) in which people wish to communicate with each other. To avoid confusion, people could take turns speaking (time division), speak at different pitches (frequency division), or speak in different languages (code division). CDMA is analogous to the last example where people speaking the same language can understand each other, but not other people. Similarly, in radio CDMA, each group of users is given a shared code. Many codes occupy the same channel, but only users associated with a particular code can understand each other.

The ubiquity of the GSM standard has been an advantage to both consumers (who benefit from the ability to roam and switch carriers without switching phones) and also to network operators (who can choose equipment from any of the many vendors implementing GSM[4]). GSM also pioneered a low-cost (to the network carrier) alternative to voice calls, the Short message service (SMS, also called “text messaging”), which is now supported on other mobile standards as well. Another advantage is that the standard includes one worldwide Emergency telephone number, 112[5]. This makes it easier for international travellers to connect to emergency services without knowing the local emergency number.

Newer versions of the standard were backward-compatible with the original GSM phones. For example, Release ‘97 of the standard added packet data capabilities, by means of General Packet Radio Service (GPRS). Release ‘99 introduced higher speed data transmission using Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE).

HELSINKI, Finland (AP) — Nokia Corp., the world’s largest cell phone maker, on Friday downgraded its outlook for industrywide mobile device volumes for the fourth quarter, citing pressure from the economic crisis and currency volatility.

It also announced it planned further cost cuts in 2009 “to respond appropriately to the market conditions,” but said it would provide more details on Dec. 4 when it hosts its capital markets day in New York.

The Finnish company warned in a statement that the rapid changes in consumer spending are likely to hit the mobile device market.

It now expects industry mobile device volumes in the fourth quarter to come in below previous forecasts, to around 330 million in the fourth quarter and 1.24 billion for the year. It had earlier forecast 1.26 billion units for the year.

Despite the expected drop in industry volumes, Nokia said it still expects its market share to be at the same level or slightly up in the fourth quarter compared with the third quarter.

In its preliminary outlook for 2009, it also said it expects industry mobile device volumes to be lower than in 2008, mainly because of the overall economic slowdown.

In the Nokia and Siemens joint venture, Nokia Siemens Networks, preliminary estimates indicate that the markets for mobile infrastructure, fixed infrastructure and related services will be down next year compared with 2008, the company said.

Nokia Chief Executive Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo said his company “believes that its advantages of scale, leading brand, superior logistics, low cost and broad product portfolio are competitive advantages that will enable us to distinguish ourselves from the competition in a challenging 2009.”

Shares of Nokia fell 3.7 percent to close at 9.95 euros ($12.66) in Helsinki.

Kelebihan utama dari E63 dibandingkan dengan Nokia Eseries lainnya adalah terletak pada jack audionya yang sudah berupa 3.5mm yang mendukung earphone atau headphone stereo. Kelebihan ini merupakan nilai tambah tersendiri mengingat jack audio 2.5mm seperti yang dimiliki Eseries lainnya merupakan salah satu kekurangan yang selama ini menjadi penghambat utama dalam mendengarkan suara stereo.

Sedangkan, perbedaan mendasar dengan E71 adalah cover E63 terbuat dari plastik, tidak terdapat internal GPS, camera masih 2.0 megapixels, tidak ada infrared, tidak support HSDPA, tidak ada tombol kontrol suara dan volume pada sisi kanan dan kiri.

Berikut merupakan press release dari Nokia :
“Our research shows that people want a device that deals with both their personal and professional lives, but helps them to separate the two. When someone sits down at lunch, they want to update their social network or browse their personal email account and they don’t want work getting in the way of that. It’s another great case of technology adapting to the people that use it,” says Soren Petersen, Senior Vice President, Nokia. “The Nokia E63 is a new proposition for Eseries - a messaging device where people will be just as involved in their social network as they are in their business network.”

Whilst appealing to a new group of consumers with a design that feels great in the hand and has two new colors, the Nokia E63 is still very much a member of the Eseries family. Petersen continues, “People use Eseries to access their corporate mail, review their calendar and work in their business network, so the Nokia E63 still includes Wi-Fi connectivity, easy access to Mail for Exchange and dedicated key access to contacts, calendar and email.”

Production history of Nokia Eseries phones:
* On October 12, 2005, mobile phone manufacturer Nokia announced what the company refers to as the Eseries, consisting of the three mobile phones, the Nokia E60, Nokia E61 and Nokia E70.

* On May 18, 2006, Nokia announced the addition of the E50 to the series, which it refers to as a “business device” rather than a “smartphone”.

* On February 12, 2007, Nokia announced the addition of three new devices to the series; E61i, E65 and E90.

* On April 11, 2008, Nokia Australia has advised that the E61i will be discontinued in May 2008 and be replaced by a more featured but smaller E71.

Wi-Fi technologies are supported by nearly every modern personal computer operating system, most advanced game consoles and laptops, and many printers and other peripherals.

The purpose of Wi-Fi is to provide wireless access to digital content. This content may include applications, audio and visual media, Internet connectivity, or other data. Wi-Fi generally makes access to information easier, as it can eliminate some of the physical restraints of wiring; this can be especially true for mobile devices.
