Jorgen Sundgot, infoSync, has written an interesting article about the Smartphone 2002. One of his comments: "Like with PPC 2002, it's possible for SMP 2002 users to personalize their device with ringtones, color schemes, home screens and profiles. Microsoft has chosen to use WAV files as a standard for ringtones, a solution which might not please operators and manufacturers who are standardizing on formats from which to create revenue - and could possibly bring Microsoft in between a rock and a hard place if the exchange of WAV files with ringtones based on the latest hits becomes popular since no DRM features are in place."
I couldn't help laughing when reading that! Yes, the Smartphone 2002 delivers what we all really expect from any device; the features to manage and customize it!
All mobile operators and handset makers; pay close attention now! The real mobile Internet is coming to a device near you - very soon, users are taking control over their devices! Instant messaging, backgrounds and ringing tones can no longer drive any multi-million dollar business plans. Want to make money in this market? Here's what you need to do: Innovate!
