Do you know anywhere that I can get a bluetooth transmitter?

I had the above enquiry in from an SMS Text News reader who’s on the hunt for one of those transmitters that can broadcast content - pictures, videos and so on, to phones in an area. I see them around all the time used with various marketing efforts. Any ideas where I can point the reader for a supplier in the UK?

  • If they are looking for expertise in this area, as opposed to just a box, then speak to Rachel or Jonathan at Hypertag.

  • They could also check out the award winning Qwikker.
    http://www.qwikker.com - which handles campaigns such as Pepsi and Virgin Festival.
    Talk to James Martin in the UK

  • Hmm. Do they have permission to spam people using bluecasting (aka bluespamming)? Legally, it’s still a very very grey area indeed. I wouldn’t risk it until I knew for sure that the system could be opt-in and that the Information Commissioner had approved it.

    Hypertag has a work around for opting in. Most of the others don’t bother :(

  • Those looking for smth permission-based and enabling personalisation of deliveries, try check with http://www.terimobile.com and their TeriZone service.

    opt-in is a must, even leaving out information commissioner’s decision - just for your own sake don’t spam people.
    as for hypertag, I somehow have failed to see their work on opt-in, i mean other than just warning people about approaching a “danger” zone :)
