The Really Mobile ProjectLast month I wrote about how probably the best blog for mobile industry news, Mobile Industry Review, was shifting to a subscription model priced at £12,000 per year and aimed squarely at corporations. Suddenly all the great video content and entreatingly-written analysis that I enjoyed so much was to be gone.

Things haven’t turned out quite so bad as the might have though. Mobile Industry Review founder Ewan MacCleod is still writing his occasional scathing rants over at ewan.net and now the rest of the core team have launched their own new site, The Really Mobile Project.

Like MIR before it, The Really Mobile Project offers a combination of news, reviews and analysis in both written and video format. The team, James Whatley, Dan Lane, Ben Smith and newcomer Vikki Chowney, have put together a great looking site packed with content at launch. Highlights on day one include Vikki’s review of the Nokia E75 and Dan’s review of the excellent iPhone game Flight Control. Former MIR contributor Jonathan Jensen offers a written defence of the iPhone against claims from tech geeks that it just doesn’t live up to its hype.

‘Proper shows’, instead of the current video diary clips, are promised in the future. It’s definitely a site to keep your eye on if you’re into all things mobile. Their brilliant Wordpress theme also reminds me that I need to get a facelift sorted out for 14sandwiches in time for its first birthday next month. More on that soon!
