2008 Horizon Report

Today, mobiles are increasingly about networking on the go. Better displays and new interfaces make it easier to interact with an ever-expanding variety of content—not just content

formatted specially for mobiles, but nearly any content available on the Internet.

videos, documents, searching and shopping—all available anywhere without the need to find a hotspot or a power

outlet.
