3 What is M-Commerce? M-commerce refers to monetary transactions conducted via a mobile telecommunications network using a communication, information, and payment (CIP) device such as a mobile phone or a PDA unit.

4 Wireless on the Rise Although the U.S. and Canada lag other countries, projected growth in mobile data adoption is extraordinary. Wireless devices are now more commonplace than wired computers in North America

5 Mobility is much more than phone calls and e- mail… More than movement… Mobility is not just about movement of people and goods, but about technology everywhere Workplace Home Leisure Shopping Dining …and more than just people Mobility is not just about communication between people, but also between machines and devices Mobility augments the capabilities of people and devices

7 Four characteristics distinguish Mobility: Presence Mobile devices will be our constant companions, whether we carry them with us or encounter them in devices we use everyday Immediacy Freedom from a stationary PC means we can access information or conduct transactions as close as possible to the instant we need it Location Freedom from a stationary PC also means we can access information or conduct transactions as close as possible to the place in which we need it Interest Consumers in a certain location and a specified time can be instantly unified by their common interests

8 Who Can Identify Killer Apps? Companies/Entrepreneurs who know where the economic value (client side) of wireless technology comes from! Companies/Entrepreneurs who understand the perceived benefits of wireless technology for the end user!

9 More Concretely: Market your application (e.g., interactive, location- based game) to Network Operator! What do you need to ask yourself… Does my application/service increase air time usage (such as network gaming or movie ticket purchasing)? Does my application/service perform a function that is so compelling to customers that everyone will want to use it.

10 Identify a wireless service to sell: What is the value proposition you offer to your various stakeholders? Under what ‘P’ does your service fall? How will money flow? What are your information needs to implement this service and where do you get it from?

AThey said they had a GPS system installed in the car, and they tracked me across seven states without me knowing it BAcme fined him a total of $450…Acme says they decided to start using GPS to track speeders because too many of their rental cars were ending up in traffic accidents AcmeSpeeding causes accidents; speeding kills people. We think we have a right to protect our property, that's why--it's our property. Exp.…as time goes on these practices are likely to become more and more invasive. Exp.It's scary to think that--that some point down the line, after the fact, we will all discover that there are very detailed dossiers on our physical whereabouts… Source: NBC Today Show, 2005
