The growing horsepower of next generation mobile devices and the increasing speed of mobile networks allow us to do away with technologies such as WAP. Mobile devices can now easily view websites, as well as create and playback media as if on a desktop or laptop. Does this mean web applications don’t need special considerations? When you have an always-on connected device that is aware of it location and most and always with its user, a whole new paradigm of connected, social, and location based experiences emerge. With Rich mobile Internet Applications on the horizon, what are the possibilities and the potential considerations when designing and developing next generation mobile applications?
