Mobile Terminals Set as a Primary Internet Device According to Pew/Internet 'the mobile device will be the primary connection tool to the internet for most people in the world in 2020' and 'voice recognition and touch user-interfaces with the internet will be more prevalent and accepted by 2020.'

Cellphone manufacturers were long time not capable to offer a convincing user experience, there is millions of products and services on every cellphone, but unfortunately beyond SMS nobody really uses them so far.

The Apple iPhone attacked exactly that weakness and provided a superior and clever UE in terms of quality, video, photo and audio capabilities, leveraging a larger screen (320x480), omitting the physical keyboard in favor of a virtual keyboard on a touch screen and providing generous built-in memory (8-16GB) setting the trend for next-generation cellphones.

Next-generation cellphones such as the upcoming Nokia N97, the iPhone 3G, the Blackberry Storm, the HTC Touch Diamond, the Sonyericsson X1, the Samsung SGH-i900v OMNIA and several Android powered devices caught up this trend and come now with touchscreen, QWERTY-keypad, GPS und GByte drive, multi-megapixel camera, compass, and accelerometer as well as with consumer-centric GSM, Bluetooth, EDGE, 3G, and WiFi capabilities and converge more and more into hybrids combining voice-centric and data-centric services

I think that cellphone manufacturers were catching up and offer a better UE and technology to receive and deliver services via the ever sophisticating Internet Protocol (IPv6) through several communications structures with a great opportunity to create a personalized informations and communications strategy.
