1. Why .mobi?
Today' content rich .com sites overwhelm the mobile device with to much to display.
"Consumers are not happy with the mobile .com Internet because it just doesn't function well," Neil Edwards, chief executive of dotMobi, said during an interview in February 2007 at the conference in Barcelona. "The dot-mobi domain was established to offer mobile Internet users a domain they can trust, somewhere they can go and be sure that the site will function well on their mobile phone." Though still relatively unknown, dotMobi, which is based in Dublin, is backed by a powerful group of investors including Nokia, Ericsson, Vodafone, T-Mobile, Telefónica, Telecom Italia Mobile, Google, Microsoft and the GSM Association, which represents 700 cellphone operators around the world.
3. Web on a phone - does that really work?
Worldwide, according to the GSM Association, more people have an Internet-ready mobile device than have a computer with Internet access. Today (2007) web enabled phones account for 75% of new phone sales.
"Everybody down to local shops has an Internet presence on computers, but that's just one channel," Edwards said. "They will soon realize the potential of the mobile Web to reach people."
