• The introduction of more advanced and affordable 3G smartphones embedded with wide screens, touch screen UIs, faster networks (e.g. LTE, WiMAX), and, , one-touch access to mobile web services, and full browsing technologies (e.g. Gecko, WebKit, Opera, etc), supporting AJAX JavaScript-x and Flash, will be among the key drivers for mobile web consumption.
• By 2013, a new generation of Google Chrome-type mobile browsers able to push more capable web-based mobile applications is likely to emerge, which should enhance the mobile web experience and further drive mobile web usage.
