Industry Reviews

"The mobile Internet is the most radical development since Marconi invented wireless telegraphic radio communication in 1894, in our opinion. A confluence of technical leaps in devices, networks, and applications is setting the stage for wireless to become the ultimate media. The opportunity size of the mobile Internet is enough to make an investor tremble."--Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, The Mobile Internet Report, October 2000"
