Editor's Notes
- #3: IDATE predicts that global mobile internet penetration ( Mobile Broadband ) will grow from just over 20% in 2010 to reach 37% - or 2.67 Billion users - by 2015. Soichi Nakajima, Senior Consultant for IDATE's Internet Business Unit, said:"The mobile Internet has reached a stage where it is finally taking off in Western Europe and North America, where it is poised to follow the developments which have so far been seen in Japan for almost a full decade and, to a lesser extent, South Korea.Regarding mobile connectivity devices such as USB dongles, their value is in fact higher than that of mobile phones today and this trend is expected to continue. The ARPU for mobile connectivity devices, depending on the country and region, can be more than double that of smartphones.…"
- #4: In Europe, North America, Japan and Australia iPhones lead in smartphone OS deployments, by Android making headwayIn the developing world Nokia Symbian still the most significant OS.Four dominant smartphone platforms emerging: Android, iOS, BlackBerry, Windows Phone 7 (assuming Nokia deal works out).Don’t forget tablets. iPads and Android tablets and potentially others (BB PlayBook).

- #7: Facebook is has a “mobile workforce” of users but is not yet a mobile business because you can’t run an ad campaign on a phone.
- #8: Mobile Web : Web pages that render differently in a mobile browser. M.domainname.comVanity App : The CEO app. Get on the bandwagon. Small number of users. High “internal profile”Viewer app: Delivering the website in an app formatFeature app: Do one thing for the business that’s transactional or gives insight. e.g. Update internal database after customer meeting.Full Service App: Expose one whole part of the business to the web. Order mgmt, purchasing.
- #11: Fully mobile webThis is a web app that runs in the mobile phone browser, and cannot access native device functionality such as camera, contacts, local file storage and so on. It can use traditional web techniques such as cookies to store information locally.Fully nativeEach app is developed separately in a native development environment dedicated to that one platform.iOS = Xcode to edit ObjectiveC on a Mac OS X machine;Android = Google Android developer kit to edit Java code on any compliant platform (runs on Windows and Unix and Mac OS X), often using Eclipse;BlackBerry = Own developer tools on a MS Windows platform only;Windows Phone 7 = Own developer tools on a MS Windows platform only, using C#.and so on for lesser known platforms.Generated native (Appcelerator)Uses a predefined subset of JavaScript to limit the potential UI choices you can make.But can translate these choices into a native UI on each supported platform.Main problems are:any third party JavaScript integrations need to be directly supported by the platform;you rely on how rich the subset UI calls they provide are.Builds a native app for each device, with a native UI.Apps can be distributed via app stores.
