| Abstract | We are living in the edge of new dawn for mobile internet services. The so called 3G Mobile technologies are starting to emerge into the market. Newly introduced technologies in hardware, protocols and operating systems in past years are giving mobile internet new possibilities to serve the customers. The introduction technologies and new communication methods has also it's down side. Increased divergence in client capabilities makes the design of the services more complex issue than what it used to be before these technological introductions. One other trend in mobile market is the falling revenue of the traditional voice communications. The data communication is seen as a method of making the mobile business more profitable and to overcome the problem of falling revenue. This means that the service application should be build to serve as many communication protocols and device families as possible to maximize the usability as well as the profitability of the mobile internet service. The problem is that there is no universal method to serve all possible conununication methods and also same time delivers the content in a way that it suits the client capabilities best. To solve the problem as a result of this study a mobile internet service application structure is introduced. The structure can be built and modified to suit a wide variety of different communication methods and also it has capabilities to modify the content to suit client's capabilities as needed. Also the structure doesn't address the implementation issues, so it allows the implementation to be done using the methods which will suit the solution provider's interests best. This study introduces two prototype applications which illustrates the usability and the flexibility of the proposed structure with real word examples. |
