STOCKHOLM (AP) — She is a latecomer to the information superhighway, but 75-year-old Sigbritt Lothberg is now cruising the Internet with a dizzying speed. Lothberg's 40 gigabits-per-second fiber-optic connection in Karlstad is believed to be the fastest residential uplink in the world, Karlstad city officials said.
In less than 2 seconds, Lothberg can download a full-length movie on her home computer — many thousand times faster than most residential connections, said Hafsteinn Jonsson, head of the Karlstad city network unit.
Jonsson and Lothberg's son, Peter, worked together to install the connection.
The speed is reached using a new modulation technique that allows the sending of data between two routers placed up to 1,240 miles apart, without any transponders in between, Jonsson said.
"We wanted to show that that there are no limitations to Internet speed," he said.
Peter Lothberg, who is a networking expert, said he wanted to demonstrate the new technology while providing a computer link for his mother.
"She's a brand-new Internet user," Lothberg said by phone from California, where he lives. "She didn't even have a computer before."
His mother isn't exactly making the most of her high-speed connection. She only uses it to read Web-based newspapers.

Canada Mobile Phone Revolutoin
Canada is on the brink of a mobile payments revolution that will empower consumers to turn their cell phones into “electronic wallets”—rendering plastic money, as we know it, obsolete.
Global payment giants Visa Inc. and MasterCard Inc. say emerging mobile payment technologies are not only poised to antiquate conventional credit and debit cards, but everything else we lug around in our wallets – including cash, loyalty cards, driver's licences and coupons.
Those smart-phone technologies, currently being tested around the world, are being billed as a game-changer for the payments industry.
There is already pent up consumer demand, prompting some experts to predict full availability of mobile payments in Canada in about 18 months. The industry, however, stresses it is important to manage expectations.
“I do think you are going to see some movement in 2011,” said Derek Colfer, business leader, global mobile product innovation at Visa Canada.
Still, he cautions the availability of mobile contactless terminals needs to be a “fairly ubiquitous” before Canadians can truly ditch plastic cards.
In fact, mobile payments represent a complex business opportunity that hinges on co-operation from a slew of stakeholders. Electronic payments networks, banks, mobile carriers, smart-phone manufacturers and retailers all need to get on board.
There is some traction on that front. Earlier this year, mobile handset manufacturer Nokia announced that all of its smart phones would be enabled with Near Field Communication technology starting in 2011.
“When you get a device manufacturer with that kind of power globally making a statement like that; that has impact,” Colfer said.
Near Field Communication, or NFC, is wireless technology that allows for the exchange of information between electronic devices over short distances.
The technology is generally embedded in the phone. That allows it to be waved in front of a contactless reader for mobile payment purposes, doing away with the need for plastic cards. After a purchase is made, a receipt is sent to the device.
In addition to emulating credit and debit cards, NFC-enabled phones have other capabilities including a “reader mode.”
That could allow consumers to hold their phones up near a “smart” poster, packaging or billboard to launch applications that access things like weather reports, electronic coupons or loyalty points.
The technology also has the potential to activate electronic home appliances. “You might actually use that to turn on your toaster,” observed Colfer.
Additionally, NFC allows for a “peer-to-peer” mode to link the phone with other devices through a secure connection to employ services like money transfers.
While NFC is only one type of mobile payments technology being explored, industry players are betting it will be the bellwether of the future.
Convenience is the key factor that will fuel consumer preferences for NFC, according to a report by professional services firm Deloitte earlier this year.
“I believe that we are 12 to 18 months away from full availability of NFC phones,” said Scott Lapstra, vice-president of market development with MasterCard Canada.
“It offers a more robust security and user experience in that you can actually control everything from the phone; including downloading new card information,” he explained.
“If you lose your phone, you can have the payment application turned off over the air. And it also allows you to lock the payment functionality by having you put a PIN on it.”
Nonetheless, the industry is also trying to whet consumers' appetites for other mobile payment solutions.
Among them are Micro SD (security data) cards that allow consumers to store banking information on mobile devices.
There are also payment stickers or tags that adhere to the back of mobile phones. Stickers, though, are considered less secure from a theft perspective. Moreover, they can destroy a phone's cool factor.
“The sticker can really wreck the aesthetics of an iPhone for example ... You slap a sticker on it and you really are not doing the design much justice,” Colfer said.
Both Visa and MasterCard have conducted test pilots of various mobile technologies in different countries around the world.
In Canada, Visa partnered with Royal Bank of Canada and Rogers Wireless in 2008. That trial used an NFC-enabled phone to make contactless payments using Visa payWave.
MasterCard, meanwhile, conducted an NFC pilot project in conjunction with Bell Mobility and Citibank, in 2008 using its comparable PayPass technology. It then conducted a second trial involving mobile tags with Bank of Montreal and BlackBerry maker Research in Motion that ended earlier this year.

BlackBerry 8520 reviewBlackBerry 8520
An entry-level BlackBerry Curve, with a new-fangled Trackpad to replace the annoying trackball on previous Curve models. The 8520 offers a full QWERTY keyboard, mobile e-mail, a basic camera and a media player, plus good memory and connectivity. But it cuts corners with the display, camera and lack of high-end features that are common in many smartphones.
Best buy: *Free* with free line rental from Mobiles.co.uk (Black) or Mobiles.co.uk (Violet) or Dialaphone (Black) or Dialaphone (White); or £149.95 on PAYG from Dialaphone (Black or White).
Nokia 5230 reviewNokia 5230
The 5230 is an entry-level touchscreen smartphone. Its key features are its large touchscreen, A-GPS with Ovi Maps, 3G, downloadable apps from the Ovi store and outstanding battery life. In other ways it's a disappointment, with a poor camera, a mono speaker, no WiFi and no video calling.
Best buy: *Free* with free line rental from Dialaphone (Black) or free from Three (Black or White); or £77.95 on PAYG from the Carphone Warehouse (Black, Pink or White) or £78.95 from Dialaphone (White).
Samsung KP500 reviewLG Cookie
The LG KP500 is a touchscreen phone for those on a budget. It's a compact device but with a large touchscreen display that's easy and fun to use.

An entry-level BlackBerry Curve, with a new-fangled Trackpad to replace the annoying trackball on previous Curve models.

The 5230 is an entry-level touchscreen smartphone. Its key features are its large touchscreen, A-GPS with Ovi Maps, 3G, downloadable apps from the Ovi store and outstanding battery life. In other ways it's a disappointment, with a poor camera, a mono speaker, no WiFi and no video calling.

Samsung KP500 reviewLG Cookie

Nokia N9
The Nokia N9 comes with nice-looking slide-out QWERTY, 8MP camera with dual LED flash, 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support and an HDMI port.
The Nokia N9 multi-touch capacitive screen is considerably larger than iPhone's 3.5-incher and only a tad smaller than HTC Evo 4G 4-inch display. So, the upcoming QWERTY-enabled N9 will be the first Nokia phone to sport such a big screen.
Leaving the name issues aside, the smartphone runs Symbian^3 and packs a tilting slide-out hardware QWERTY keyboard, HDMI port and a large capacitive touchscreen (measuring about 3.5" in diagonal) with multi-touch support. Unlike the Nokia N8 which comes with a 12-megapixel snapper with Xenon flash, this guy features an 8MP camera with dual LED flash.
Nokia N9 Specs:
* NAM 3G Bands (850/1900)
* nHD Display (640 X 360)
* 4″ Capacitive multi-touch display
* Front facing camera (VGA?) with LED Flash
* Rear 8MPX camera with Dual LED Flash
* WiFi, Bluetooth
* HDMI Out

Nokia N900 Review - Mobile Phones Club Blogspot
BUILD AND DESIGN
There isn't much in the N900 that departs from the Nokia N810 it replaces. There's still a resistive touchscreen, running at a comfortable 800 by 480 pixels within 3.5 inches diagonally. At just under 270ppi, that's about as close to paper as LCD screens get these days.
Nokia N900However, the 3.5-inch screen does make it smaller than the N810; enough so that the N900 is a more comfortable pocket companion despite its additional heft (181g versus 221g for the N810). This additional weight is noticeable since the device is smaller, but usually the block (it's a rounded brick) doesn't weigh your pockets or hands down.
QWERTY Keyboard
What the N900 does evolve rightly from the N810 is the QWERTY keyboard. The N900's is a three-row keyboard which ingeniously integrates directional keys on the right side. While it's smaller (width and height) than the one on N810, it feels much better due to its domed keys and excellent travel.
In using the N900 as my primary device, adapting to the QWERTY took only a few text messages or an e-mail.
Compared to my Nokia N97, the keyboard seems to have learned some lessons and offers easier blind typing, though the keys are closer together. The N900 lacks a directional pad, though, so you'll need to train both hands to use directional keys.
Like the N97's QWERTY, the N900 utilizes the function key to access numbers and additional symbols. However, those additional functions are not accessible by a long-press of the corresponding key.
Predictive text is enabled system-wide and many applications respect this functionality. That said, those coming from QWERTY devices like Treos and BlackBerries would be best to temper expectations. The N900 will learn the words you use very quickly, but features such as inserting a space after a period automatically aren't there.
Other Hardware Features
Once getting past the weight, shape, and large touchscreen, you see some of the design decisions that have evolved within this Nokia model. For example, the top of the device has a volume up/down, power on/off/lock, and camera capture buttons -- these follow the N810's design.
The 3.5mm headset jack has evolved to include TV-out (PAL/NTSC), yet remains on the right side. It's joined by a dedicated screen-lock toggle button and a well hidden stylus.
The bottom is bare -- on the N810 was the battery door release and memory card access. The N900 has the battery door as the entire rear panel. The micro-SDHC card slot is located under the this panel, as is the 1320 mAh battery.
The rear also houses one of the more significant upgrades for the N900: the 5 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera. This is a camera module similar to the one used in the Nokia N97 and other recent devices from this company. The camera is covered by a simple slider -- improved from the one on the N97 -- and has two LED flash blubs for better low-light pictures and video usability.
One of the neat features that the Internet Tablet line has always had is a kickstand. The N900 keeps this tradition going, but, unlike the N800 and N810 before it, this kickstand is actually designed around the camera-slider's chrome bezel, and doesn't do as good of a job in terms of keeping the device at a stable, angled viewing level.
Nokia N900 Review - Mobile Phones Club Blogspot
If there was anything in the hardware that I am most disappointed in, it’s the size of the battery (1320 mAh). This is much smaller than the 1500 mAh that ships with the N97 and N810, and the space is packed very tight. I don't know that third-party batteries would be able to fit without having some kind of new rear panel put on the device. This would make an already thick device much thicker.

f you couldn't manage to get yourself a Google Nexus One and still want to give it a try, today might be your lucky day. You only need to be a registered Android developer and to have some 529 US dollars in the piggy bank.
As you might have heard, a little while ago Google stopped selling its first own Android-running device online so from that moment on your only option for becoming an owner of the HTC-made Google Nexus One were Google's partners (operators and retailers).
HTC Google Nexus One HTC Google Nexus One HTC Google Nexus One HTC Google Nexus One
Official photos of HTC Google Nexus One
But if there aren't any of those in your neighborhood, you can now go for another option: as of yesterday the Google Nexus One can be purchased from the Android Developers website since the Nexus One has just become the new Android Developer Phones (replacing the elderly ADP 2).
In order to take advantage of that new option, though, you have to be a registered Android developer. If you happen to be one, just log into your Android Developer account and follow the "Development Phones" link. By the way, the Android Developers' Nexus Ones come with the Android 2.1 on board but the ver. 2.2 update is just a few taps away.
The phones sold over there are factory unlocked (and probably rooted) and are priced at 529 US dollars (around 400 euro, so, no news here).

Samsung Galaxy S
Lag isn’t the only problem we’ve had, either. The Galaxy S has randomly lost our email inbox in the time we’ve been using it – requiring inputing all our Exchange settings again, and performing a full sync – and the camera app has crashed a couple of times, refusing to load until we power-cycled the phone. Elsewhere, the UI is simply frustrating. New SMS alerts, for instance, aren’t removed from the Android notification bar until you not only view the message in the bubble conversation view, but actually tap the new bubble itself and “open” it on a separate page. No new information, but an extra step all the same. We prefer the regular Android icons to those in TouchWiz, though admittedly that’s a matter of taste, but the way Samsung has managed the desktop is slightly at odds with Google’s own approach with Android. The Galaxy S has seven homescreen panes with the default “home” pane on the far left; the Android OS is more used to the “home” pane being central, and so if you choose Google Maps as your Live Wallpaper – which normally uses GPS to center the map on your current location – the maps are offset since the center point is on homescreen four. Nit-picking, yes, but it’s the sort of poor polish that undermine a successful UI.
Sadly there’s no way to easily turn off TouchWiz and return to the native Android UI, so owners unwilling to experiment with unofficial ROMs will be stuck with Samsung’s interface. Some of the company’s preloaded tools aren’t bad, however; there’s a full copy of Swype, the gesture-based keyboard (though it isn’t enabled by default) and Samsung’s multimedia player is far better than the standard Google offering. It supports MPEG4, H.264, H.263, DivX, Xvid, WMV, AVI, MKV and FLV video, among others, together with a healthy clutch of audio formats including OFF and FLAC. Paired with the 3.5mm headphones jack and onboard storage you’ve got an Android phone that could certainly give an iPod touch a run for its money.
Social networking tools are fashionable, and Samsung’s approach is a little similar to HTC’s. The Galaxy S has Samsung’s Social Hub, a combined stream of Facebook, MySpace and Twitter messages – complete with a desktop widget and the ability to send out an update to one or all services simultaneously – but there’s also a “Mini Diary” app that allows you to easily create journal entries complete with photos, stored weather information, text notes and more. Unfortunately, once created they’re basically stuck on the phone; there’s no way to remotely sync them or upload them automatically to a blog somewhere.

More useful is Samsung AllShare, which takes DLNA media sharing and puts a cellphone-friendly face on it. AllShare allows you to stream multimedia from the Galaxy S to a WiFi-connected player – whether a standalone audio system, network-connected HDTV or a computer – or vice-versa, or even to act as a remote control for your media server, selecting files to play remotely. Video, audio and images can all be streamed, and the Galaxy S simply showed up as a media source in compatible apps.
As for playback on the Galaxy S itself, understandably it’s video that shines best thanks to the Super AMOLED display. We had no problems getting various DivX and Xvid files to play, with 720p HD video looking great. Interestingly, there’s a TV Out option in the settings pages, though no sign of an adapter in the box to actually hook up a bigger screen. Audio, meanwhile, is reasonably loud and clear via the Galaxy S’ own speaker, but Samsung’s bundled earbuds are actually surprisingly good and, while still not outperforming a reasonable aftermarket set, do at least avoid the noise leakage and underwhelming bass of Apple’s standard set. There’s also an FM radio, complete with auto-scan and user presets, though it relies on the headphone wire to act as antenna.
Samsung has something of a reputation for decent cellphone cameras, and the Galaxy S generally doesn’t disappoint. At 5-megapixels with autofocus, the only thing missing from the spec sheet is a flash of some sort. What you do get are various photography modes, including blink, face and smile detection, panorama and high-speed shooting, together with a decent amount of control over manual settings. There are also multiple effects, such as vintage and cartoon, and a high-visibility mode which boosts the UI so that it’s easier to see while outdoors. The end result are bright, clear and well balanced shots, with decent colors and – as long as you don’t use the digital zoom – little noise or pixellation. Without a flash you’re obviously limited in your low-light use, with focus being a particular trouble, though we might argue that LED flash units are generally underwhelming anyway. There are samples in the gallery below, unedited aside from being resized by 50-percent.
Video, meanwhile, can be recording in one of five resolutions from 320 x 240 to 1280 x 720, with or without audio and with manual control over exposure, contrast, saturation and sharpness. However there’s no focus control. Interestingly, during recording you can choose to either pause or stop; pausing allows you to chain several segments into the same clip. A size counter shows how big the file is getting while you can also use the 4x digital zoom (which is jerky moving between levels, rather than a smooth optical zoom). Files are recorded in MPEG-4 in a 3GP container and at around 11.6Mbps, along with mono audio from the Galaxy S’ single microphone.

Samsung Galaxy
We've got to hand it to Samsung with its Galaxy S line. Coordinating the launch of a single family of devices across all four national US carriers (plus a regional or two) is a feat very rarely accomplished, and usually reserved for really unique handsets that those carriers wouldn't be able to effectively source from anyone else; HTC's Touch Pro2 is a prime example of that. Add to that the murky issue of exclusivity periods... and, well, yeah, Samsung definitely has reason to be proud here -- on the business end of things, anyway. Never mind the awesome contractual maneuvering that undoubtedly took place to make this all happen, though -- we all know that it's the hardware (and software) that really counts. Today we're looking at the first two models of the American run, the Captivate for AT&T and the Vibrant for T-Mobile; Verizon's Fascinate and Sprint's QWERTY- and WiMAX-equipped Epic 4G are still forthcoming, though we expect the Fascinate to be largely similar to these first two.
Beyond their simple appeal as sexy, high-end Android phones, what makes the Captivate and Vibrant especially interesting is that they are actually their respective carriers' only high-end Android phones at the moment. In other words: if 1GHz processors and high-res AMOLED displays are how you roll, these are basically the only game in town if you're on AT&T or T-Mobile -- particularly now that Nexus One sales are winding down. Do they rise to the challenge? Let's have a look.

Rogers Canada Phone
Pre-ordering for the iPad has begun, but the enthusiasm faded as Rogers released its iPad data plan rates. The disappointment over no unlimited data package could change if Bell or Telus enter the space.
Apple Inc. started taking online orders for the iPad through the Canadian Apple Store on Monday and Rogers Communications Inc. followed up by announcing iPad data plans that go into effect when the iPad starts shipping on May 28.
The good news is the month-to-month plans do not require a contact. The bad news is that none of the plans offer unlimited data usage.
Two plans were announced on the Rogers RedBoard blog: $15 per month for 250MB and $35 per month for 5GB. Both plans include unlimited, free access to all Rogers WiFi Hot Spots.
The plans do not apply to Rogers Wireless subsidiary, Fido Solutions Inc. The iPad will not available through Fido at the launch, states the post.
Rogers says the tablets are a new category of product and "it's too early to say if customers will use more or less data than they do for the iPhone," but the company remains optimistic that the 250MB/5GB plans "will be more than enough for virtually all of our customers."
99.8 per cent of iPhone customers and 95.6 per cent of rocket stick/embedded laptop customers use less than 5GB of data each month, states the post.
But if a customer does run over their data bucket, they won't get penalized with higher rates or additional fees.
"We have also structured our plans so customers never have to pay overage charges. If a customer runs through their data bucket before their month is up, they have the option of signing up for a new bucket and the month starts anew," stated a Rogers spokesperson in an e-mail interview.
Apple noted on its Web site that a $20 shared plan was also available from Rogers, but the note was made in error and removed. "The reference to the $20 iPad sharing plan is false and was incorrectly posted on Apple's web site," stated the Rogers spokesperson.

Mobilephonesclub.blogspot.com presents nokia c3 information
Introduction
Nokia C3 is young and social, simple and reliable. Messaging and social networking are the very heart of this handset. But are they enough of a head-turner to become a phone's key selling points? Sure thing! Just add a pinch of charisma and hang a price tag fit for the masses and you've got yourself a recipe for a true love story.
At its Indonesia launch, the phone drew massive crowds and it seems success in Europe is only a matter of time – with a price tag of about 100 euro. Compromises are always implied in this price bracket but the Nokia C3 does well to focus all attention on its strengths. It’s a budget package – no doubt about that – but so wonderfully balanced. It has all the relevant features and the target audience isn’t likely to miss what’s not there.
os
A QWERTY messenger focused on the basics, the Nokia C3 is an excellent upgrade option for the budget-minded. And social networking isn’t just a thing for marketing to work with. The full QWERTY keyboard, dedicated Messaging and Contacts keys, along with Wi-Fi connectivity round off a solid package that will give the right user all the performance they need.

The Nokia C3 is a social gadget for the young. What’s not to like if Facebook is your second home and you want to always stay in touch.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8
Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8 at a glance:
* General: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 1900/2100 MHz, HSDPA
* Form factor: Touchscreen bar
* Dimensions: 99 x 54 x 15 mm, 104g weight
* Display: 3" 16M-color TFT capacitive touchscreen with HVGA resolution; scratch-resistant surface
* Platform: Android OS 1.6 with custom Sony Ericsson UI
* CPU: 600Mhz processor
* Memory: 128MB internal memory, microSD card slot, 2GB card included
* Camera: 3-megapixel fixed-focus camera, geo-tagging, VGA@30fps video recording
* Connectivity: Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, standard microUSB port, GPS receiver with A-GPS, digital compass, 3.5mm audio jack
* Misc: Timescape UI, Infinite button, accelerometer for screen auto rotate, FM radio with RDS, TrackID music recognition
* Battery: 1200 mAh Li-Po battery
Let’s face it, the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 and X10 mini are niche products – one for the high-end loving crowd and the other for those fascinated by the tiny yet powerful smartphone.
The XPERIA X8 on the other hand is aimed at the masses. The 600MHz CPU won’t break any speed records, but Sony Ericsson have optimized their custom interface to the point of giving you a smooth and consistent run – which at times does feel blazing fast.
There’s no n-enabled Wi-Fi radio or Bluetooth 3.0 support, but honestly, how many of you actually use those? Wi-Fi b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 and A-GPS along with HSDPA-enabled 3G give the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X8 all the connectivity most people will ever need.

Motorolla Charm
How do you call a not rotating Motorola FlipOut? That would be the upcoming Motorola CHARM. This is yet another odd looking Motorola device with MOTOBLUR-ed Android v2.1 on board. The thing hasn't been unveiled yet but is expected to hit the T-Mobile USA stores soon.
The charming Motorola CHARM comes only a few weeks after the announcement of the Motorola FlipOut which packs a rotating hardware QWERTY keyboard and a capacitive touchscreen. The BlackBerry-inspired CHARM features a full QWERTY keyboard as well but comes in a bar form factor.
Motorola CHARM Motorola CHARM Motorola CHARM Motorola CHARM
Meet the Motorola CHARM
Just like the Motorola FlipOut, the CHARM will also run the Android v2.1 (a.k.a. Eclair) with the MOTOBLUR UI 1.5 on top of it. The newer version of the MOTOBLUR brings along a better SNS integration (including Facebook Like and Twitter Retweet). By the way, most of the refreshed UI is said to go to both Motorola CLIQ and CLIQ XT really soon, too.
Right above the four-row QWERTY keyboard there are some touch sensitive keys to see (we've seen them before on the FlipOut) and above them we find the capacitive touchscreen with multi-touch support. It's size and resolution are still a mystery but we won't be surprised to see the same 2.8" QVGA display the FlipOut comes with.
There is no word on the other features but Motorola CHARM should show up soon so the mystery will be solved. The phone is expected to hit the T-Mobile USA stores in the near future but we hope to see the cutie in an European flavor as well. As for the CHARM price tag, our source remains mum on it.

esterday's iPhone 4 launch was full of surprises - dead on arrival, yellow spots or white dots on the screen, lost reception signal and a bunch of happy users. It seems the yellow spots will disappear in a few days, what about the spotty reception?
There are numerous iPhone 4 users reports of the phone losing signal when you hold it covering the bottom left corner where the GSM and Wi-Fi antennas meet.
Apple states they know of the issue and their official statement is amazingly instructional:
"Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the placement of the antennas. This is a fact of life for every wireless phone. If you ever experience this on your iPhone 4, avoid gripping it in the lower left corner in a way that covers both sides of the black strip in the metal band, or simply use one of many available cases."
Reportedly, Steve Jobs was even kind enough to reply to some user emails - briefly, but straight to the point:
"Just avoid holding it that way."
Ok, we understand how clever it was of Apple to design the iPhone antennas in that way and we can accept new technology comes with its own quirks. But stating a right and wrong way of holding your phone with the latter able to leave you totally signal-less - well that's plain wrong. Not to mention even THEY hold it the wrong way on their ads.

Just because you cannot see it
Here's a fascinating article "Workers Say Courthouse is Unhealthy" from North Carolina, USA, about a problem building.
It seems it hasn't been a great building for 36 years.
Regarding air hygiene, various tests and investigations have been done, but none have produced results convincing enough for the employer/landlord to do anything concrete about duct cleanliness
A couple of quotes from the article:
"Employees also spoke of black, dustlike particles falling from ceiling vents. County officials said that was a concoction of dust and dead skin and was not a health hazard"
“People start wondering what the test results mean,” he [State Health Dept investigator] said. “Interpretation of the results is difficult. (People) want to link mold in the environment to their health issues, and that’s a problem because we don’t have a benchmark for what is safe and unsafe.”
Now take a look at the state of an HVAC diffuser grille and the nearby ceiling as an office employee takes a tape sample for mould / mold
And yes I know some of that dirt is induced from the served area onto the grille vanes and ceiling tiles, but really - how filthy does a building component have to be before somebody says: 'Hey, let's clean this'?
Think of the time and money that's been spent over the years doing investigations, discussing results etc. Is it really that complicated or difficult to see that it's just not right for a system to be that dirty?
It's the old story: just because it's out of sight, does not mean it should be out of mind.
