Tomi T Ahonen writes an interesting piece that considers what will happen when more people access the web via phone than the computer. He suggests that the internet on the mobile phone will deliver four elements that don’t exist today on the fixed internet:

No other technology is so close to us physically at all times… Finally – and most importantly – the mobile phone offers a built-in payment mechanism.
