David Gave Speech about iPhone 3.0 VS Android 1.5 at FountainBlue meeting of “Mobile Applications: Hot Technologies and Business Models”

Posted by brianzhou on May 13, 2009

ExtendLogic CEO David Cao gave speech about iPhone 3.0 VS Android 1.5 at FountainBlue meeting of “Mobile Applications: Hot Technologies and Business Models” on 11th May.

Below are some notes quoted from FountainBlue Meeting Summary(The notes below are copyrighted by FountainBlue in 2006-09 and all rights are reserved.

*******************************************************

“There has been phenomenal progress over the past year or two on the mobile
application business, from the paradigm-shifting emergence of the iPhone and
all the touch-screen and user interface functionality it enables, to new
business model options opened up through Apple’s approach to iPhone
application sales, to the emergence of cloud computing and its implications
for mobile applications, to the ongoing advances in bandwidth, developer
communities, and technology in general.

In thinking about mobile application technology development, consider the
following factors:
* There are choke points between the mobile device and the base
station and also between the base station and the cloud, and therefore
opportunities for developers and providers to address real market needs.
* The network bandwidth constraints caused by pipeline and sharing
issues are being addressed with technology advancements, so bandwidth will
soon no longer be as much of a barrier for mobile applications.
Entrepreneurs should consider the implications of this for applications and
markets. Which bandwidth-intensive applications would this make possible?
* With that said, bandwidth-intensive applications such as video would
be better suited for countries such as Japan and Korea and parts of Europe.
In the US, there are many inconsistencies where different areas have
different levels of network access. Consider these factors as you strategize
about your mobile application business model and markets.
* With 70% of the iPhone app revenues going to developers and 30% to
Apple, Apple’s game-changing approach to selling apps has carriers thinking
creatively and scrambling to see how they can get their share of the $1B
plus market. You will see cell phone manufacturers, providers, and others
experimenting with their own twists to the new business models. The big
players such as Google’s Android, Apple’s iPhone, the open source Symbian
option, etc., will likely dominate, but the game is still in play and Palm’s
PRE, for example, may surprise us!
* There will be an explosion of new applications as more iPhones and
other similar devices get into the hands of customers. Costs-per-app, which
have gone down from around $6 each to around $1 each, may still trend down,
but the volume of users will continue to make this a fertile opportunity for
the right applications, developers, organizations, and providers, like
Apple.

The panel advised on some hot opportunities ahead in the mobile application
space:
* The touch screen revolution initialized with the iPhone will open up
new possibilities for mobile applications with richer user interface
capabilities. Consider not only how your application can take advantage of
what’s happening in this space, but also the broader question of how are you
interacting with your phone now and how COULD you be interacting with your
phone with this new functionality?
* Flash applications, especially for Location Based Services, will be
hot.
* Gaming will be hot, perhaps games which allow interactivity between
players.
* Special buttons may appear on devices which make it easier to play
games – perhaps a joystick for example.
* The techno-philic tendencies, health consciousness, and financial
security of the aging boomers population may trigger the development of
hand-held devices for medical diagnostics

Google Android’s Biggest Hope – China

Posted by BeyondSoftConsulting on May 10, 2009

MLogy – Google’s Android 1.5  is facing a tough competition in catching up with iPhone 3.0 in US, but not everywhere else. China absolutely is Google’s biggest hope.

China’s mobile released its version of mobile operation sytem recently, which is based on Google’s Android platform. With more than 400M subscribers, China Mobile failed to made agreement with Apple for its iPhone. As the result, China Mobile might be the largest operator for Android soon.

Besides OMS, several manufactors had reported plans to release Anroid based phone in China, of cause, not only for China Mobile. This makes China the biggest potential market for Android and most likely will not face the same level of competition it faced in US with Apple.

With a large resources pool of expereinces Java developers,  Android platform is far more popular than iPhone in the development communities.  Not only that, the Chinese operators and government all like the open source nature of the platform, so they can take over the control. I met lots of developers who are excited with Android development while I was in China one month ago. All of them were Java developers.
