           Summary: It is unlikely this will work on mobile as you cannot
                    make tcp connections into a mobile phone. They will be
                    blocked by the operator's firewall and this is very
                    unlikely to change. Of course, this isn't a reason not
                    to specify this, but it's good to be aw

Comment:
It is unlikely this will work on mobile as you cannot make tcp connections
into a mobile phone. They will be blocked by the operator's firewall and this
is very unlikely to change. Of course, this isn't a reason not to specify
this, but it's good to be aware that it will not work for a very large class
of devices.
