What devices provide
• Ubiquity - more users, worldwide• Immediacy - quick, relevant content ‘fixes’• Portability – it’s ever-present • Simplicity - excludes the extraneous• Customization – ability to target content
according to sensor-derived identity/location data
• Multitouch interactivity - gestural navigation • Streaming audio and video - niftier than text on
iPhone; ex: Pandora, Tales2Go• Two-way data delivery – sensors & downloads

What’s the business model?
“This page intentionally left blank”
Free to try > micropayment to subscribe >
requires high uptake, visibility, and repeat utility
Apps don’t need to be expensive to build,
but are they a revenue stream?

Questions re: scholarly mobile• Will the immediacy of devices enliven the research process?• Will mobile devices be significant channels for scholarly
publishing and research? • Will scholarship be produced and served on mobile devices? • Will professors and academics incorporate devices in their
research/instructional workflows?• Will the social nature of mobile devices promote scholarly
collaboration?• Will there be new, born-digital genres?
