New Book: Mobile Internet For DUMMIES released...

Hello MW4D WG members

As I mentioned few moments ago in our conference call, there is now
a new book out, which is targeted to normal consumers to explain
how they can use their mobile phone to access Mobile WEB-services.

I promised in the call to send additional information by e-mail-list.

Here it comes.

One of the author's of the book sent the following message to me
to announce the details of the book:

========================================
Hi Everyone,
 
Hope all is well with you and that you are enjoying the summer so far...
 
I wanted to send you a quick heads up that I've co-authored my first
book. It's titled Mobile Internet For Dummies and it is a mass-market
consumer book all about how to best use your mobile phone to access
made-for-mobile Internet content, services and more. 
 
I worked together with John Levine (of Internet for Dummies fame with
millions of copies sold), Jostein Algroy (industry advisor/journalist
based out of Toronto), Daniel Appelquist (Vodafone mobile web
thought-leader and Mobile Monday London co-founder) and James Pearce
(dotMobi VP Technology and Mobile Monday Dublin co-founder) along with a
couple of other mobile industry gurus (Michael Becker and Russell
Buckley) to write about everything you wanted to know, but were afraid
to ask, about how to use your phone to surf the net in one easy to
read/follow book. We covered text messaging to email to blogging to
games to music to pictures to shopping to banking to building mobile web
sites to accessing the Internet from the palm of your hand. 
 
The book also includes a few tips and information on how to find the
best deals on phones and carrier network plans for your mobile Internet
use. In conjunction with the book, we created a web site at
http:///mifd.mobi that will work well on your computer browser and your
mobile phone browser to help you find more services in the mobile web
space.
 
You can buy a copy of Mobile Internet for Dummies at your favorite
bookstore or order on line from  Amazon (World Wide) or Barnes & Noble
(USA) or Indigo/Chapters (Canada) or directly from our publisher at
Wiley or the Dummies book site.
 
Thanks!
 
Best regards,
Michael
