There you go Russell, that’s my wild prediction for the year ahead. [...] [...] The full potential of wirelessly connected mobile phones will be reached in 2007.

Ditto to his comment about the confusing numbering, we each did 10 out of 20, in no real order, and click through the links for the original posts detailing some of my original shots.

Not all banks are slow, sometimes banks are faster than anybody else in the Java MIDP space :-) And it's one app for 200 mobiles, so Java is not as worse as a lot of people mention. Programming in XHTML on the mobile is much worser at this stage (especially when you want to reach a lot of handsets and do SSL either). And I know what I'm talking about, because I do Java, but I prefer doing XHTML/Web and I love Symbian C :-). Olli To point 13:

Any stats on what kind of site setup can cause such high CTRs? Or do you mean certain specific ads generate this amount? Is AdMob offering context-based ads (analyzing the page content), like Google AdSense? 8% CTR is impressive. Any stats on what kind of site setup can cause such high CTRs?
