Résumé

Mobile business is the next generation of e-business, in which virtually any traditional business function can be delivered via mobile devices such as cell phones, pagers, or PDAs. The goal of mobile business and m-commerce is to enable people to conduct business and make purchases using portable devices as easily and efficiently as they could in the office or at home. The Essential Guide to Mobile Business is a complete, up-to-the-minute briefing on m-business for every non-technical professional.

KEY TOPICS:Leading m-business implementers Ingrid Vos and Pieter de Klein introduce the mobile Internet, comparing it to the traditional Internet from three different perspectives: customer, entrepreneur, and developer. You'll review key m-business technologies such as WAP and Bluetooth, and preview tomorrow's advances, such as GPRS, UMTS, and EDGE. Vos and Klein present a series of detailed case studies designed to help you identify your best m-business opportunities, and offer a detailed five-step action plan for establishing your mobile Internet presence.

MARKET:For all investors, business decision-makers, marketing, sales, public relations, and other professionals who need accurate, accessible information about emerging wireless technologies.
