More than a third of smartphone users in Europe are thought to pay for applications via operator billing, according to research released on Wednesday. An online consumer survey of more than 2,000 smartphone users in the UK and Germany, carried out by billing firm Mach and research agency Opinium in April, found significant demand for direct operator billing, suggesting it could be the preferred payment method of choice for apps and in-app purchases.

It’s been a long time coming, but London’s free Tube Wi-Fi network has finally gone live today in two stations, with four more to follow by the end of this week. Travellers at King’s Cross St. Pancras and Warren Street will now be able to browse the web from the stations’ platforms. To access the service, Transport for London (TfL) says you simply need to connect to the network and register your email address. The two launch stations will be joined tomorrow by Oxford Circus and Green Park, with Victoria and Euston set to go live on Saturday. In total, TfL plans to install wireless networks at 80 Tube stations by the end of July, expanding to 120 by the year’s end. The free Wi-Fi is provided by Virgin Media and is being launched in preparation for the 2012 Summer Olympics, which kick off on July 27th.

Mobile phone giants Vodafone and 02-owner Telefonica, have announced plans to create one shared grid in the UK. The move is designed to improve existing coverage and to speed up the roll-out of superfast 4G services. The firms say it will mean 4G mobile services, which allow users to download music and videos to their phones at high speed, can be delivered by 2015. That is two years ahead of regulator Ofcom’s requirement of 98% coverage by 2017. The two firms will continue to compete but will pool their network infrastructure.

A Facebook smartphone has reportedly been in the works for some time. In 2010, Techcrunch reported that Facebook was “secretly” building a smartphone – although this particular project is said to have broken down. The company’s desire to enter the smartphone market could be a result of increasing pressure to improve the potential of mobile to make money. In a statement for potential investors ahead of its initial public offering earlier this month, the company admitted it had concerns about more users accessing Facebook through their mobile – a trend which could make it more difficult to sell advertising.

It is certain that London will be extremely busy next summer – but London and the rest of the UK will be open for business.
