E-commerce is what's really bound to boom. Right now, the wireless Net is more overlooked than embraced. The boom in Europe and Japan is partly due to the lack of landline Internet access and the high cost of local phone calls-things we have in affordable abundance. Therefore, it's a very attractive alternative for overseas users who've already adopted mobile phone technology. Forrester Research predicts that 54 percent of Europeans will be using the mobile Internet by 2005.
Analysts agree, it's just a matter of time until our wireless Internet boom.
Keep an eye on the wireless Net as it advances. Issues will arise, concerning everything from providing a mobile-accessible Web site to ways that new services can improve productivity. Inc. All Rights Reserved.
