Mobile Internet becoming more popular
10th April 2008 by David North
An interesting report from 3 showing how they have seen a sevenfold increase in data traffic over the last six months.
The mobile broadband dongles you can get now are a great idea and stand up well against ADSL/Cable for the speed they provide (as long as you have the signal). Generally speaking you can get 1-2Mbit/s.
In addition to the dongles I can see the use of the Internet through mobile devices such as phones and PDAs is going to rocket. I for one am looking into getting an Sony Ericsson W890i this weekend which has HSDPA so I too can get the broadband speeds on the go.
One area that is still a mess is the standards regarding mobile devices but hopefully the shift in the market will see a rapid development in this area.
