Mobile Commerce (M-commerce)

 Introduction

Rarely has a new area of business been heralded with such enthusiasm as “mobile commerce”, that is the conduct of business and services over portable, wireless devices. Due to the astronomical growth of the Internet users, maturation of the Internet technologies, realization of the Internet’s capabilities, the power of electronic commerce, and the promising advancement of wireless communication technologies and devices, mobile commerce has rapidly attained the business forefront. An m-commerce application can be B2B, B2C or any other of the classifications available with e-commerce world.

Motivating Factors for M-Commerce

Internet use has grown to such a level on the strength of PC networks. Due to the huge base of installed PCs, which is predicted to grow in a faster pace in the days to come, electronic commerce and other communication applications are bound to thrive further. Also, these computing systems will have greater power and storage capability, the best ever price-performance ratios, more powerful and sophisticated applications will likely emerge for desktop computing and the Internet. However, there are two major limitations on PCs. First , users have to sit in front of them, PCs, even portable-notebook computers, have to load software, dial into and connect with a network service provider and await for the initial process to be accomplished before launching an Internet application.

 Wireless Technologies

Just as the TCP/IP and the general purpose Web browsers are being the current principal drivers of Internet growth and this in turn makes disparate devices to connect themselves and communicate and interoperate. Similar protocols, technologies and software will play a very important role in heterogeneous wireless devices to interoperate without any complexity. In the recent past, a common communications technology and uniform interface standard for presenting and delivering several distinct wireless services on wireless devices – Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) have emerged. The WAP specifications include a micro-browser, scripting language just like JavaScript, access functions and layered communication specifications for sessions, transport and security. These specifications enable interface-independent and interoperable applications. Many of the wireless device manufacturers, service and infrastructure providers have started to adopt the WAP standard.

M-Commerce Applications

The general m-commerce applications are categorized as transaction management, digital content delivery and telemetry services. The applications can be further subdivided into passive and active m-commerce applications. Active application relates with the applications in which the user has to take the initiative on his wireless device. In contrast, the passive applications themselves get activated towards accomplishing the assigned jobs or facilitate the users to carry forward.

Conclusion

As m-commerce applications and wireless devices are evolving rapidly, one will take forward the other one towards empowering innovation, versatility and power in them. There are a number of business opportunities and grand challenges of bringing forth viable and robust wireless technologies ahead for fully realizing the enormous strength of m-commerce in this Internet era and thereby meeting both the basic requirements and advanced expectations of mobile users and providers.

Just a few short years ago a PDA anti virus was not necessary. The viruses, worms, Trojan horses and the like were the concern of PC owners only. But as we all know things in the online world change very fast, and these days all PDA’s surf the web frequently. The popularity of PDA’s and the ease of access to wireless surfing at wi-fi hotspots is a blessed phenomena. But while this is a good development, new throats enter the arena. Today’s worlds of pocket pc’s is as dangerous as the regular PC’s. Numerous viruses, Trojan horses and key loggers are speeded each day, thus forcing PDA owners to arm themselves with the proper protection.

Let’s take a look a few of the treats that have immerged in today’s PDA environment:

1.If you are surfing the web, there are types of viruses and Trojan horses who “know” how to penetrate your PDA and do their worst. You therefore need proper protection from infected files, just like any PC user who surfs the web, downloads files, reads emails etc. The rule of thumb is : if a PC needs this protection, than a PDA user needs it too.
2.If you are surfing and downloading emails wirelessly, than you need even better protection. If the information you beam and receive in not encrypted, a hacker can read your e-mails and attachments, see what websites you visit, and even worse, steal your personal and financial information. A hacker can even illegally download copyrighted material or launch attacks using your identity. This calls for a Wireless Home Network Security protection system which makes sure all the information you send from your PDA in encrypted, so no hacker can reach it and grab it form thin air. The McAfee or the Caspersky products are recommended for this matter.
3.If you are using your PDA to access sensitive material like your bank account, you need to be extra careful and make sure both your communication and your PDA itself are secured. Don’t rely only on the security measures that the bank’s website have because they are rarely enough to stop a really good hacker.

Just like in the PC world, You need to stay updated and on top of things. You’ll want to update your anti-virus every day through the live update option that most anti-virus software products have. This will ensure your PDA has maximum protection. Always remember that it’s better to take care of this in advance as it’s always more painful and expensive to revive a computer that was taken by a virus.

I need to upgrade my PDA, I’m not sure which one of these is good.
Any comments,reviews,experiences??>??? thanks

1.Verizon Wireless XV6900
2.Samsung Omnia™
3.HTC Touch Pro™
4.BlackBerry® Storm™ 9530 smartphone
Jamal, thanks for the info isn’t the Palm Pre through Sprint?

1. XV6900 is a solid phone but not so much for Verizon, especially since its GPS functions are disabled and unlike other carriers it doesn’t have wifi, on top of that it’s soon to be discontinued as evidenced by the treo pro.

2. The Omnia is perhaps the most solid and has the best processor of any windows mobile phone for verizon. it has built in wifi, radio, memory, etc. this is your best bet. If windows mobile didn’t suck so much it would probably knock the iphone out.

3. The touch pro has a wonderful keyboard, interface, you name it, it is an HTC after all. This phone is also very solid, although if you want battery life this phone will die pretty quickly.

4. The blackberry storm is basically a good idea but it hasn’t been fulfilled to the tee. The only problem I can find with this is the buggy blackberry software and the lag that comes along with any full touch device.

If I were you I’d just hold out for the Palm Pre coming for spring, it’s touch screen is basically the iphones and from what Ive heard its a definite iphone killer. I’d also check out some of the Alltel phones since they are basically verizon now and they do have the Treo Pro. Also check out http://www.cnet.com for reviews on the phones your looking at. Hope I helped.

The Cisco 860 and 880 Routers are fixed-configuration routers that combine Internet access, security, voice and wireless services over broadband speeds onto a single device that is simple to use and manage for small businesses. http://www.cisco.com/go/800

yes but get the one that is the national govt carrier. normally they have the best infrastructure in the local country.

If you have a wireless service provider, like Cingular, are they supposed to upgrade your phone for you? I still have a nokia from like 3 years ago.

Most cellular providers will offer you the new "free phone" or a great discount on your purchase of a higher-end phone, only when your standard 2-year contract is up and they want you to re-sign. It is company policy for most, but they certainly are not obligated to give you a new phone or even to offer, so perhaps you should ask a sales associate next time you get a chance.
