The cell phone is the fastest-selling consumer electronic in the world. On a global basis, over 1 billion cellular telephones are sold each year. More camera-equipped cell phones are sold each year than stand-alone digital cameras. More MP3 player-equipped cell phones are sold than stand-alone MP3 players. Rapid development of new technologies is leading to ever more versatile, multipurpose mobile devices, including Internet-enabled cell phones and PDAs.
Meanwhile, wireless networking and wireless Internet access are developing and expanding on a global basis at a rapid rate. Booming technologies include such 802.11 standards as Wi-Fi and WiMax, as well as Ultra Wide Band (UWB) and Bluetooth. WiMax, with its low cost and range of up to 30 miles, may revolutionize the wireless industry. Major WiMax investments were recently announced by Motorola, Intel, Sprint Nextel and others.
Telematics, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and satellite radio will soon create an entertainment, navigation and communications revolution within automobiles and trucks. Meanwhile, RFID (radio frequency identification) will revolutionize wireless tracking, inventory and logistics at all levels, from manufacturing to shipping to retailing.
These developments are creating challenges for legacy companies and opportunities for nimble marketers and managers. For example, myriad new mobile commerce (mCommerce), mobile subscriptions and advertising opportunities abound for companies ready to embrace mobile subscribers.
Consumers in nations such as Japan and South Korea have already shown that they are more than willing to access quality mobile content and next generation services on a subscription basis, including news, wireless TV, animation and filmed entertainment scripted and adapted for the small, mobile screen.
Meanwhile, in major Asian markets, cell phones are rapidly evolving into mobile payment systems, where consumers are able to use cell phones to wirelessly, instantly make purchases at vending machines, train ticket stalls and elsewhere.
