Good article- The year of the new mobile operating system

Cellular_mobile_205654InfoWorld has published a good article that takes a look at what the introduction of the iPhone and the Google Android platforms means to the US smartphone market.  It definitely appears that next year is going to be a really interesting one to watch and as InfoWorld points out we should see the carrier’s "walled gardens" start to crumble.  This is a good thing as carriers are now realizing that it is too expensive and resource-intensive for them to try to force customers into their own portals because the portals aren’t generating enough revenue for them to operate.  The iPhone and especially the Google Android will accelerate that realization as customers will have more carrier-independent choices in the US.  This is very good for the consumer but you will no doubt have to do your homework as choices open up.  We’re here to help you with that on jkOnTheRun so buckle up, it’s going to be a wild ride.
