M-LEARNING: HEAVY Vs LIGHT MOBILE PHONE

Mobile technologies offer the opportunities to enhance learning in natural environment. Heavy mobile phone users are supposed to have access to more than one type of mobile content than light mobile phone users.
Significant distinctions can be noticed when comparing the usage of mobile phones for M-learning between heavy & light mobile users. Heavy mobile phone users subscribe/access more than a single type of mobile content than light mobile phone users. Moreover, heavy mobile phone users have more frequent access/subscription and purchase of mobile content within the last year than that of light mobile phone users.
Hence, heavy mobile phone users spend more money on M-learning, its content and mobile games than light mobile phone users.

EVOLUTION OF MOBILE PHONES AND ITS USE OF APLLICATIONS TO GROW YOUR BUSINESS.


It seems that MOBILE Phones is  ever present in our society, successive generation from the early 0G's services like MTS to 1 G's , 2G's , 3G's followed by latest 4 generation. Perphaps because of its popularity, there are widely differing views as to whether the medium of mobile phones is a positive force or a negative force in society.


On the plus side , there is a commonly held view that mobile phone is great importance to each and every individual in a society as it acts as an communication media or even as a educational tools for the general Public. Mean to say about its Lastest Application in this corporate  organisation. People respond well to the artical published i.e. mobile application programmes and are better able to retain the knowledge learned through the experience. The use of Mobile phone application like Trip View Lite , Facebook , Skype can taken as a good example of this . 


On Alternatively , some people believe that Mobile Phone  is nothing more than mindless entertainment. It is argued by such people that mobile phone acts as a substitute for actual learning. That insead of absorbing information at one's won speed through the medium of reading for example, one is force-fed the briefest of information at a fast-pace, making indepth analysis difficult. An example Effects on Children - The health effects of mobile phone radiation on children is very worrisome. All government reports and many scientific studies that are referred to in this article emphasize that children are more vulnerable than adults. In ‘How Exposure to Mobile Phone Base-Station Signals Can Adversely Affect Humans.
In the world of globalisation these days where technologies are rapidly increasing ,  things are changing in an blink of an eye . Technologies mobile Phones and its applications are very useful and plays a very vital role in daily life of people and also there mushrooming activities .there is just an example how these business mobile phone apllications helps you to increase your growth in business for eg;.blackberry phones are the most uselful mobile phones used in business , apple (i-phone)and samsung are also used by the business people around the world .


first and foremost you need to know how to use your mobile apllications for your growth of business .Many business owners have not fully realized the potential benefit how the use of mobile apps, smartphones and tablet devices can increase productivity, add competitive edge, cut costs and much more. Did you know you can create an iPhone app to deploy to your internal organization without it either going through Apple’s lengthy review process nor it showing up in the iTunes store? Did you know of new payment models that allows you to swipe a credit card by phone – ditching traditional portable terminals; or initiatives to do away with credit cards and simply swipe your phone as a digital wallet to pay? If you have a ‘brick and mortar’ business, did you you can find out real-time information about potential customers; including when they visit, how often, whether they commented positively/negatively about your establishment to their friends, thus you can reach out and incentivize them to be a repeat customer? These are just the tip of the iceberg practical examples of how mobile can grow your business.


"How to use Mobile Applications to Grow Your Business"


If you DO NOT NEED to build your own mobile app…


Talk with your web designer about optimizing your existing website for mobile devices.
Try to identify existing mobile apps that can handle more of your internal needs; apps such as CRM, sales management, ecommerce, location-based, mobile marketing, financial, contacts, email, etc. A great resource for discovering and knowing which are the best Android apps is our very own AndroidTapp.com.
Track and measure productivity from the previous method into the new.
If you DO NEED to build your own mobile app…


Determine whether you need a mobile app for your business. One common pitfall is when creating an app that is only ‘brochure-ware’, basically placing static information in an app that can be found on your mobile website. The key is to determine whether you can engage with your audience with a mobile app, such as accessing proprietary data like sales figures, inventory or products.
Determine whether your app is an internal only or mass consumer app.
Now that you have determined you have a need for a mobile app it is time to think heavily about budget, as mobile app development can be costly, especially if you are thinking about more than one platform; i.e. iOS (including iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch), Android, Blackberry, etc. I personally would recommend according to the majority of your end client needs or start with the two most popular platforms; iOS and Android.
Find a professional mobile app developer/company that can handle most of your initial and ongoing support & maintenance needs. One company we can recommend is MusicTapp, although currently geared at musicians, their mobile app platform allows for custom app creation on iOS and Android with a content management system business owners can use to control their own content.
Marketing your app is another ball of science we’ll discuss in another article, however, you should think heavily about differentiating and marketing your mobile app if it is geared toward mass consumers.
Once the app is built, tested and deployed… it does not stop there. Consider improving the app based on user feedback and continue to iterate on bug fixes and feature enhancements.
Track and measure productivity from the previous method into the new.

Iphone taking over the world

In 2007, Apple introduced the iPhone, which instantly became one of the most talked-about consumer products ever. Thousands of customers lined up to be the first to buy the phones, which featured computing and Wi-Fi capabilities, along with a crisp, computer-like display on an innovative touch screen. Rivals, including Google, rushed phones with similar features onto the market.
In October 2011, the company unveiled an eagerly awaited new version of the device, the iPhone 4S, that included a “virtual assistant,” Siri, that recognized voice commands by users to schedule appointments, dictate text messages and conduct Web searches.
Although the new phone was virtually indistinguishable on the outside from its predecessor, the iPhone 4, it was packed with better technical innards, including a more advanced camera. The phone also included a more powerful chip known as the A5, the same microprocessor that acts as the brains inside the iPad.
Though many Apple fans expressed disappointment about the lack of a design change, consumers reacted very differently. Apple said it sold more than four million iPhone 4S’s during the device’s first weekend on sale.
In January 2012, after a blockbuster fourth quarter, Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive, said the iPhone 4S accounted for the majority of iPhone sales. This statement took on added significance considering that at the time, the iPhone 3GS was free with a two-year contract, and the iPhone 4 cost $100. Even in a down economy and with a free iPhone in its portfolio, Apple still managed to sell the expensive, newer 4S to most of its customers.

Yet the free and reduced-price iPhones were still important to the company’s business. Tero Kuittinen, a senior analyst at MGI Research, said the free iPhone 3GS gave Apple the opportunity to expand aggressively into markets where smartphones were not as popular yet, like China and Africa.
Jan Dawson, an analyst with Ovum, said not to underestimate the power of the free iPhone 3GS and the cheaper iPhone 4. “You’d better believe the other iPhones are selling, too,” he said. “They’re suddenly competitive with the lower-end smartphones that you used to get if you couldn’t afford an iPhone.”
The iPhone4s runs on two kinds of cellphone networks, GSM and CDMA, allowing its operation worldwide. Prices start at $199 for a model with 16 gigabytes of storage. The new phone is available on the AT&T, Verizon and Sprint networks.
In a Race With Android
Apple’s strategy helped narrow the lead that had been gained by Android phones, powered by Google’s operating system. Nielsen, the audience measurement firm, reported that 61.6 percent of United States smartphone consumers surveyed in October 2011 said they had gotten an Android phone within the previous three months, while only 25.1 percent got an iPhone.
By December 2011, though, Android’s lead among people who had recently acquired a smartphone had narrowed to 46.9 percent, while 44.5 percent of consumers said they had bought an iPhone, Nielsen said. About 57 percent of iPhone owners in December said they got the new iPhone 4S, while the rest, 43 percent, got older iPhones.
Legal Dispute
Soon after the iPhone 4S was introduced, Samsung Electronics said that it would seek to block its sale in France and Italy, asserting that the phone violated its patents. In seeking a court order against its rival in the two large European markets, Samsung indicated a more aggressive stance in its expanding patent battle with Apple.
Samsung said that it planned to file for preliminary injunctions in other countries after further review. The two companies are locked in about 20 legal disputes over patents in nine countries, including Australia, Britain, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands and the United States.
The fight began when Apple sued Samsung in April 2011 in the United States, asserting that the Samsung Galaxy lineup of smartphones and tablet devices “slavishly” copied the design, user interface and packaging of the iPhone and iPad. Samsung responded with its own lawsuits accusing Apple of violating its intellectual property.
An Issue of Control
Apple likes to maintain tight control over what programs can appear on the iPhone — a task that became a little bit harder in July 2010, when the Library of Congress, which has the power to define exceptions to an important copyright law, said that it was legal to bypass a phone’s controls on what software it will run to get “lawfully obtained” programs to work.
The issue has been a topic of debate between Apple, which says it has the right to control the software on its devices, and technically adept users who want to customize their phones as they see fit.
Apple has also said that altering the phones encouraged the pirating of applications, exposed iPhones to security risks and taxed the company’s customer support staff. But iPhone hobbyists say they simply want to have free range to use certain features and programs on their phones that Apple has limited or failed to offer.
Can Apple win in an intensely competitive market against rivals that are openly licensing their software to scores of companies? It faces that challenge not only in phones, but also in the market for tablet computers, where the iPad is about to take on a similar set of rivals.
The are huge, as the mobile computing market could prove to be larger than the PC market ever was.
That leaves little room for error at Apple. The company must continue to create hit products, as a single misstep could give Android and other rivals an opportunity to make inroads and steal market share.

All operating under android so called ice cream sandwich system. Its usually cheaper than the apple iPhone. This is the one of the factor of booming market of android. More than 107 million smart phones were sold in second quarter of 2011. Smart phone using Google android system doubled their share in second quarter of 2011 accounting for 43% of world wide sells. By comparison apple iPhone sold 9.6 million units giving it over just 18.2% of the market share. But those share does't reveal for revenue. Apple iPhone record the profit of 6 billion dollars in 2011 September  report. Samsung had asked for the stop selling iPhone because of the copyright issue with the patent of the mobile (http://macdailynews.com/2011/09/16/samsung-files-patent-infringement-suit-against-apple-over-ipad-iphone-in-australia/).

MobileOK and W3C Vs Mobile AJAX


MobileOK, generally considered as mobile web standardization is one of the attempted methods from the overall standard point of view while Full Browsing is the attempt to improve browser centered mobile web accessibility. MobileOK standardization considered as the Mobile Web Standardization profound by W3C since 2005 seeks to make the Mobile Web utility higher and carries out programs on developing the benchmarking case of mobile web environment, developing the terminal information sharing technology, and developing MobileOK verification mark. It has started Phase II programs after successful completion of Phase I programs.
The guideline for mobile web benchmark cases, MobileOK reference test specification and standardization of mobile device data storage are Phase I activities. For Phase II activities; device data storage API standardization, Mobile Web 2.0 environment, and test suite standardization will be implemented.
AJAX is DOM engine for XML processing, CSS and Java script and browsing event; in another words AJAX is an application technology based on asynchronous. Different dynamic processing has been enabled by recognition of those methods.
Because of its ability to deliver an outstanding graphic environment, internet in mobile AJAX is on the escalating way. Applications using AJAX such as widget are considered to provide user friendlier interfaces in the mobile environment. Nevertheless, the most powerful strength of AJAX allows wired AJAX application like Google Map to be used as in the mobile environment.
One of the drawbacks of the AJAX is compatibility between AJAX platforms has become an issue particularly DOV event and XMLHTTP request has become a key issue.

Mobile Phone: A Day to Day Essence


The cell phone has vividly redirected some basic activities to our daily lives. Therefore the daily routines like shopping; banking and making reservations are now quick transactions “in our pocket”. Experts believe that the majority of working adults are using mobile devices for their major commercial phenomenon at the present world. For the business the mobile commerce are backbones to rejoin customers and partners in a decentralized, service-rich environment.
Although various geographical locations are at various stages of development, organizations from all sectors and countries are now responding to the emerging market for mobile commercial services. Lots of them have already made the transition to offering services over the fixed internet, with some additional basic services for the wireless channel, is very significant step. The hunger of consumer for mobile service signifies that the leading banks of developed countries like Australia, for example, can’t afford to ignore the new generation of WIRELESS APPLICATION PROTOCOL (WAP) phones. WAP had already begun to play a market enlargement role for European banks from almost a decade before. I, here, mean to say that banks and banking groups are one of the leaders of mobile commerce in the present world.
Few years earlier, commentators used to point out that the “killer app” for mobile commerce is Voice communication; but nowadays we are able to get various advanced apps in our smart phones which wasn’t even imagined a couple of years before.  I-phones   and android are the homes of million apps which assist our daily lives in either ways.
Mobile connectivity puts pressure on this common duality: Shopping at work & Working at homes. The shift to a mobile channel devalues the service providers’ traditionally high position with respect to the users. The existing internet and existing mobile communication systems apparently intersect to provide us web-style service on mobile devices, but the implication for mobile commerce going ahead are more significant than meeting-point of technologies.[1]
