Cellphones, More Than Calls, Text and Ringtones?
As 2.5G cell phones morph into 3G multimedia communicators the apparent dearth of compatible content becomes more pronounced. However, the inclusion of built-in web browsers in most new phones and the advent of always-on web access means that users can now bypass the cumbersome wap interfaces of yesterday by directly accessing any website.This opens up a vast resource of content to mobile users but it is of little value if they do not know which sites are formatted to fit their screens, what services they provide or even that they are available. Thumbtips.com (http://www.thumbtips.com) is a new portal, currently in beta testing, which is especially designed for mobile phone users.
