The Real Web, Fast & Free Mobile Web Is Untapped:

• Web is unsatisfactory on mobile phones:– Small screens, inadequate keyboards, slow speeds & high data costs

• The most successful data device has limited penetration: – RIM: 270 operator relationships in 110 countries– Yet only 0.3% penetration of mobile phones (8 million Blackberry’s

against 2.8 Billion mobile phones)

• In some markets: Mobile Web = Only Web– India: 208 million mobile phones vs. 34 million PCs (many PCs are not

connected to the web)

The Real Web, Fast & Free The Mobile-Data Problem

1. Mobile cellular bandwidth is slow– But average web pages range from 100-800KB

2. Mobile screens are too small3. Mobile devices have insufficient memory & processing power

– Memory and processing power limitations do not allow a full web experience (Java applets, java scripts, animated images, font colors, plug-ins, XML, DHTML etc.

4. Monthly service fees are expensive

connection with any alacrity…”

“Think the iPhone’s the best there is for mobile Internet access?

Think again.”

MacUser

“…a revolution in web access…”PC Advisor

“…PocketSurfer took only seven seconds to download the main Web page of a popular news site.  The page appeared on the

PocketSurfer in exactly the same format and layout as if viewed on a conventional laptop or computer.  Other wireless data

devices couldn’t reproduce the page at all because of the large number of graphics and images involved.  Other handhelds took

several minutes to produce pages with a skewed layout or reduced functionality because the devices couldn’t handle certain

technical aspects of the Web page.” ABC News.Com

“When we got hands on with it, we found that it loaded up every site even faster than our 3G smartphone…”
