The mobile future is calling

Interesting statements from people in the know in a BBC News article recently:

"We are about 18 months from an incredible boom in mobile applications and mobile adoption."
Mike Butcher, TechCrunch, April 2008

"The mobile web is not just about accessing the web from your phone, mobile phones that are location aware, temporarily situated and socially connected will transform our experience of the web, the world and ourselves."

"The next web will be about place and time."

Marc Davis, Yahoo Social Media Expert.

The new stage will give developers access to GPS, contacts book, communications stacks, e-mail and SMS functions on the phone.
