Mobile Gaming – Latest Technology or Widest Compatibility?
June 3, 2008 Thoughts No CommentsI have been passing the time as I try to adjust time zones exploring the possibilities for mobile gaming. I am struck by the widespread compatibility and inertia of SMS texting and its relatively high cost. Data services offer the possibility of Instant Messaging and Voice over IP but appear limited in their availability and/or uptake. Phones are now available with motion sensors and GPS. Clearly the latest technology opens up many possibilities. But how do you plot a course between using the latest technology and going for the widest compatibility?
