• Yes, we've heard that we sleep with mobile phones.
• Now latest research by Lightspeed Research reveals
that 67% of UK citizens not only take their phones to
bed with them (ie use alarm clock) but yes, two out of
three actually keep the phone on and connected - to
receive SMS or calls at night.
• And only 14% will switch the phone to silent. So 53%
will sleep with the phone not just on, but so that it
will wake you if a message or call arrives at
night..

- 17. About mobile and advertising
• Banner ads, spam SMS and pre-roll ads are copies
of older ad formats, and are interruptive by nature
• Mobile allows us to do 'engagement marketing' so
please understand what is interruptive, interactive,
viral, and engagment marketing.
• Mobile allows us to de-couple advertising from the
linear stream of media. We can give uninterrupted
movies for example from Monday to Friday, then
have our fan view specific ads on Saturday..

• It is a comprehensive tool to build billable value to
mobile services

benefit from the Six M's, that service will not bring
much satisfaction to users on mobile phones

Copyright © Tomi T Ahonen 2010 www.tomiahonen.com 3G Strategy Consulting
- 74. What is the Six M's
• It is a comprehensive tool to build billable value to
mobile services
• It shows all areas where any service might be
enhanced to deliver billable value
• It works with any digital services, existing or
hypothetical
• It can also be used as a test - if a service cannot
benefit from the Six M's, that service will not bring
much satisfaction to users on mobile phones
• The Six M's is the mobile service development tool by Tomi T Ahonen,
with Joe Barrett of Nokia and Paul Golding of Motorola, referenced in
over a dozen books and used by most of the industry giants

• Location-Based mobile service that tracks how your
mobile phone moves.
• If it moves at walking speeds, you
are walking and not creating a carbon
footprint. Same for bicycling.
• If you move at the speed of traffic,
you're in a car or taxi, and your carbon
footprint is charged.
• It knows if the travel pattern is stop-and-go
on bus routes or train routes, and
charges you less as you share the costs

• So if it is not the "next 2.7B mobile subscribers"
• ...Then Tomi is suggesting 8 B mobile subscribers

capita subscriptions to mobile?
• Africa, India, Latin America to reach over 100% ?

- 92. 120% penetration = dual phones
• It means two subscriptions for most employed people
• Many who have two subscriptions, will have two
phones
• That means users with two hands,
two phones, two networks, dual usage
• That means promiscuous behavior,
no more absolute loyalty to just
one network
• Also big market for dual SIM
card phones

- 93. Literacy impacts?
• Opportunities for the youth, who go to school, to get
jobs due to their literacy, to help read and write text
messages for their parents, uncles and aunts,
grandparents etc
• Buying a simple ringing tone, and going through
phone menu to install it, is too much to ask an
illiterate person
• A banking service on SMS has to be ultra-simple
• Printed user guides for phones are pretty useless in
illiterate markets, phone makers install user guides
as videos permanently encoded onto the phones

- 94. Effect of Replacement Cycle
• Most do not understand the power of the replacement
cycle
• Mobile phone average replacement cycle globally is
under 18 months. Compare to 3.5 years for average
personal computer
• Next year's superphone, the next gen iPhone or
super-Blackberry or N-series or Samsung or Android
• Will be given to teenagers as the hand-me-down
phone two years later
• And will be passed on to 9 year olds two years after
that. Yes, phones more powerful than best today, will
be toys for 9 year olds in 2013....
Copyright © Tomi T Ahonen 2010 www.tomiahonen.com 3G Strategy Consulting
- 95. Second Hand Phones..
• And the developing world? Will increasingly see
advanced featurephones and smartphones and 3G
phones, shipped as second hand phones to Africa,
South America and developing parts of Asia
• There will be a thriving smartphone and powerful
featurephone market in Africa for example, but the
average age of popular smartphones will be 3 years
older generations than currently in the industrialized
world, very strongly skewing to Nokia and
Symbian, with Blackberry the only viable second
option
Copyright © Tomi T Ahonen 2010 www.tomiahonen.com 3G Strategy Consulting
- 96. Digital Divide / Only Mobile
• The next 4 billion will NOT be connected to the
legacy sixth mass media internet, on personal
computers, laptops, notebooks or even netbooks
• The mass market in the developing world will connect
to the internet on their phones, not smartphones.
These are featurephones and basic WAP browsers
• If you build services for this market, designed for use
on WAP, SMS, MMS, you will be successful
• But the emerging middle class want netbooks, and
will be big consumers of smartphones
• The wealthy class will have best Apples and Lenovos
and broadband - and latest 3G smartphones

• I cannot stress this enough
• SMS is the only mobile service, proven to be
addictive, in university studies conducted around the
world, from Belgium to Australia
• SMS was worth 130 Billion dollars in 2008.
User base grew 20%.
SMS traffic grew 50%
SMS revenues grew 25%
• People prefer using SMS to making phone calls, is a
global trend, proven from New Zealand to the USA
• The biggest data opportunity for the next 4 Billion is
SMS, basic person-to-person, and premium SMS
