“Already considered as another component of the network
on many campuses, mobiles continue to evolve
rapidly. New interfaces, the ability to run third-party
applications, and location-awareness have all come to the
mobile device in the past year, making it an ever more
versatile tool that can be easily adapted to a host of tasks
for learning, productivity, and social networking.
For many users, broadband mobile devices like the
iPhone have already begun to assume many tasks that
were once the exclusive province of portable
computers. ”
