 Welcome to the first edition of Alternative News!
Alternative News is our brand new monthly mail out that mixes all the important stories from the world of telecoms with all the latest from Alternative Networks. If it's worth reading about, we'll be covering it.
 Work from wherever
Kicking off this month, is our focus on remote working. With fuel costs rising and everybody wondering how to save money on transport, we thought we’d demonstrate how working from home, or working while on the go, could really benefit your business. We’ve got a host of tips, ideas and advice at our Remote Working page.
 BlackBerry gets Bold
Working while on the go is precisely what the most hotly anticipated handset in years is all about. The BlackBerry Bold is not only stunning, sleek and packed with features, but also the most powerful and fastest BlackBerry ever. For those that long for the style of the iPhone, but demand the functionality and security of a serious business phone, it’s manna from heaven. Find out more about this hugely impressive handset, and register your interest, at our special BlackBerry page.
 Hosted VoIP – is it over?
In our new and improved news section you’ll find an interesting article about hosted VoIP. Is it quite the new dawn that people thought? Or are businesses still nervous about handing over control of all their telecoms? Find out the real story about hosted VoIP on our Industry News page.
 Double top – Echo wins reseller of the year
Sticking with our good news, Echo Communications, who became part of the Alternative Networks group last year, recently won two highly prestigious awards. At the Comms Business Awards, Echo were honoured in both the Reseller of the Year (Large) and the Overall Reseller of the Year categories. You can read more about this tremendous achievement on our Company News page.
 "Solid results" in interims
In news closer to home, we posted our interim results last month. As Chairman Ken McGeorge said “Alternative Networks has delivered its seventh consecutive set of solid results, achieving significant revenue growth, including continued organic growth across all product lines.” In these challenging times, such financial stability is of real benefit to all our clients. To see the figures in detail, and read more of Ken’s comments, please visit our Reports page
