My point wasn't that I surf porn while I'm waiting for a meeting, quit trolling. My point was, that you use mobile devices as a time waster.

You are trying to make a laptop into a smaller device than it's ever going to be. There is no argument that high speed wireless will be available everywhere for your laptop in a few years. I think everyone accepts that. Thats great for everyone.

Nobody said that jumping into wireless cold was "simple". There are companies entirely dedicated to solving the difficult wireless problems (like mine). We build the technology. If you had to build it yourself, yes, it would be quite expensive... thats our value proposition.

I'm not sure what this "specific cam software" you are talking about is... please elaborate.

If you can't be convinced that it's worth the risk, thats respectable... there are certainly enough other porn webmasters out there who will jump in on a business for a chance at a slice of 1Bn...

It's certainly possible that the numbers dont meet that goal, but it's unlikely that research firms whos job is to predict market trends are TOTALLY wrong. I mean, at least admit that they probably have more information than you do on the subject.

What do you mean that SMS billing is underwhelming???? Do you have ANY idea how much money SMS billing makes? Take the ringtone market across Europe... thats at LEAST 70% SMS billing. It's the perfect model for small purchases, like adult videos or images because it is good for impulse buys.

Perhaps you only meant that company that lets you use SMS purchase to buy your subscriptions instead of CCBill or whatever. That is not a representative example of SMS billing.

European guys.. pipe in here. How many things are sold via shortcode over there?
