…the mobile Internet (using cell phones to get online) market is poised to explode with a potential 4 billion cell phone users moving to smart phones.
“We believe Apple is emerging as the clear leader in the battle over the mobile Internet,” she wrote in her research note. “Smart phones are taking increasing share from traditional handsets and Apple’s iPhone currently leads market share of the mobile Internet.”
iPhone’s share of the mobile Internet market has gone from 5 percent to the current 38 percent in one year.

i’m motivated to instill some new habits so i can be more effective with my time, so that i’m able to meet all my commitments at work, as a parent/husband, and still have my mandatory ‘me time.’
first up: becoming an early riser. Simon’s already training me here, but i need to break the habit of a) waking up so i have *just* enough time to get to work and b) hitting the snooze button at least 3 times each morning.
i’ve always envied people who get up early, and it’s clear that if i’m able to do it, i’d have a lot more time to do things. if i get up 1hr earlier for a year, that’s over 45 days of additional time!
so my short term test is this: wake up at 6:30am every day (even weekends, though maybe add an hour), as soon as the alarm goes off (no snooze). I managed to do it today, and had a great morning: a leisurely breakfast while reading email/rss/twitter, went to the gym and rode the bike for 35m followed by stretching, then caught my normal train to work. all i have to do now is keep it up.
these are a few of the blog posts motivating me:
