      <title>Bandwidth Battles: A New Approach</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Telecom manger Andrew Wolf at Linfield College had a problem -- one just about all communications pros face or will face: huge file downloads were chewing up precious bandwidth and dragging down network performance. Plenty of traditional fixes were available, but the cost and staff to manage the apps were serious obstacles. Then Andrew landed on a unique "bandwidth behavior" approach from Art Reisman at NetEqualizer. End result -- great performance at much lower costs, a real win-win. Get all the details in this latest episode of Telecom Junkies.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[QR – quick response – codes, those little square boxes, seem to be everywhere these days. But they have limitations, like the need to install yet another app (or several apps) on your mobile device in order the read the code.

      <title>Secure, Green Cradle-to-Grave Mobile Device Strategies</title>
      <description><![CDATA[The average lifespan of a mobile device is now a mere 18 months (and getting shorter). That translates to 5 million "retired" devices every year in the U.S. Here's the issue: most of the devices sit in someone’s desk or in a forgotten storage room – or perhaps they're in a dumpster or landfill. And each device carries sensitive corporate data and a laundry list of environmentally hazardous materials.  In this latest edition of Telecom Junkies, e-Cycle Founder Tonia Irion and CCMI President and Voice Report Publisher George David take a close look at an end-of-life strategy you can adopt to securely and safely dispose of mobile devices ... and make money along the way.]]></description>
