Hello

I was under the impression that the mobile learn app was going to be
free; however there was the option to pay for an institutional 'branded'
version which will be costed.
There seems to be a variety of platforms offered but I did not notice
Windows Mobile 6.5+ offering

Hi Clive
I have had this continuing issue in the uk. Just awaiting confirmation
about what was going to be free here. The site has luckily been updated
since then. But I haven't had any contact from our contact regards cost.
So I get the impression they are either overloaded with queries or they
are not sure themselves yet.
Ty

Probably like me you will have received a promotional email from
Blackboard Mobile about an August launch for the UK.

I am concerned at the complete lack of any mention of the "no cost
version" offered in the US - There is also no indication of the likely
costs of licensing "mobile web access" to the product we already license
at significant cost.
Some of you may recall that I raised this issue at the conference here
but received an evasive answer.

We currently have bbsync which is provided free of charge and I wonder
if I am alone in thinking that mobile learn (presumably replacing this)
should at its base level also be included in our license costs.

I have written to our account manager seeking clarification and
indicating that we would expect at least the same level of free service
being offered in the USA

How do others feel about this issue
