Then check out the BBC Forum on the topic here. It's a window into the minds of consumers, many of whom loathe mobile phones (and as such, more likely to be vociferous on a forum like that). It's well worth a read though.
There's another one here all about how we'll be consuming TV in the future. Also worth a look if you're interested in TV - mobile or otherwise. And judging by my recent traffic, mobile TV is a hot topic...
I scanned about 10 pages of the responses. My general impression is that users are quite happy with the mobility of communications in the form of calls and sms.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what a similar survey would show in the late 70's 'long' before the start of mobile phones in the 80's.
Now I have seen die-hards who are finally seduced by the convenience of mobility. Others were coerced.
I wonder if the masses could resist something compelling and relevant.
The internet, broadband and Google are relevant.
Lets see if the masses could fend off the seduction of mobile internet.
