	Australia's Mobile Telephony Revolution (Research Note 20 1997-98)
		Within the Australian telecommunications sector, mobile telephony is assuming a rapidly growing prominence and since the late 1980s, has expanded significantly in its own right as well as relative to the fixed telephone market, even though the latter has also shown marked growth over these years.
		Between 1990 and 1995, Australia's share of the world market for mobile telephony rose from approximately 2.6 per cent of all mobile subscribers to around 3.6 per cent, indicating that the rate of growth of mobile telephony in Australia was greater than that of the rest of the world.
		The penetration of mobile telephony is indicated by its relative contribution to overall industry turnover.

	Mobile phone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mobile phones are also distinct from cordless telephones, which generally operate only within a limited range of a specific base station.
		Mobile phone etiquette has become an important issue with mobiles ringing at funerals, weddings, movies, and plays.
		Professional mobile radio systems are very similar to cell phone systems and attempts have even been made to use TETRA, the international digital PMR standard, to implement public mobile networks, but normally PMR systems are sufficiently separate from the phone network to not really be considered phones but rather radios.

	INMA - The Impact of Mobile Telephony on Newspapers
		Consumers interact passionately with their mobile devices, and newspapers that deliver mobile content and services have an opportunity to build a one-to-one relationship with readers, to establish a higher brand image (particularly among young adults), and to open up revenue streams never before associated with publishing a newspaper.
		These are among the top-line conclusions from a new report by INMA titled "The Impact Of Mobile Telephony On Newspapers." The 25,000-word report features a strategic overview of mobile telephony, explores how mobile devices are being used, and examines how early innovators have capitalised on the craze.
		In addition to a thorough examination of the effects of mobile telephony on newspapers, this report includes eight chapters written by experts from leading newspapers.

	Mobile Telephony and Health - Background Information
		Mobile Phone Networks in the UK Four mobile phone networks have been operating in the UK since the early to mid 1990s using the digital Global System for Mobile (GSM) operating system.
		The mobile phone networks in the UK use frequencies close to 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2000 MHz, where the unit MHz (megahertz) is a million cycles per second.
		The increasing use of mobile phones has been accompanied by concerns about possible harmful effects on health arising not only from exposure to the radio waves that are produced by the phones but also from the base stations that serve the phones.

	Mobile Telephony and Health - Exposures from Mobile Phones
		Mobile phones are designed to transmit radio waves in all directions because base stations could be in any direction with respect to phone users.
		The SAR values quoted for mobile phones assume that a mobile phone is transmitting at its maximum possible power for a period of 6 minutes.
		So, if a mobile phone has a good link to the base station and reduces its output power by a factor of 1000 from the maximum, the SAR in the head would also be reduced by a factor of 1000.

	Connected Earth: Mobile - what next
		The mobile phone will still play a key part in the way we communicate but it will be in tandem with other devices such as laptop, palmtop or fixed line - and we'll choose.
		The next main target in future mobile communications is the Universal Mobile Telephony System - UMTS - a third generation (3G) technology that will underpin full-function mobile multimedia networks based on broadband wireless technologies.
		Add in a separate emergency services mobile network and it adds up to the prospect of a spreading forest of masts and transmitters spoiling the countryside and cityscape, just as telegraph and telephone poles threatened to do in the 19th century.

		Mobile phones are basically short-range radios with a lot of technological wizardry to enable calls to be made and received.
		Mobile phones are basically short-range radios, so as soon as it gets the frequency that it needs, it will retune itself to the new frequency, just like you might retune your radio to a different radio station.
		The reason behind this is, that whoever is dialling the mobile phone does not necessarily know where the user with the mobile phone is. The caller should pay the same amount for calling, wherever the owner of the phone is in the world, and the owner of the phone must pick up the difference.

	ITWorldpk - The core issues in mobile sector
		Mobile telephony cannot truly flourish unless people use their services optimally and are not discouraged by the cost constraints.
		Whereas the government has subsidized conventional telephony in urban areas, a reduction in the connection charges of mobile phones would serve a much better purpose as they are free of the terrestrial connectivity limitations of landline phones.
		The interconnect charges and the various other charges levied on calls make mobile phones a highly undesirable medium for outgoing calls and people on moderate budgets prefer to use it for receiving calls only - this is detrimental to the proper growth of the mobile telephony.

	Consumers' use of fixed and mobile telephony, Q13 May 2003, July 2003
		A further 8% of homes claim to use a mobile rather than a fixed line, the main reason for this was to control costs, or their inability to afford a fixed line.
		Mobile penetration amongst UK adults and households is shown in figure 3b.
		Given that penetration amongst UK adults remains stable at 75% (sustaining the rise reported in February), this suggests the rise in the proportion of households with mobiles may be due to an increase in mobile ownership amongst children (under 15) within previously non-mobile owning households.

	The politics of 3G mobile telephony (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		In that country, most mobile content is resold by the mobile carriers, which then handle the billing and keep between 5 percent and 10 percent of the revenues generated.For example, premium site content usually costs $1 to $5 per month, while game downloads cost $2 to $3, limiting session activations to five or 10 times.
		Most mobile carriers have delayed their plans to launch commercial 3G services until 2003 or later, and initial launches likely will be restricted to major urban centers.
		This means that planned rollouts of mobile applications requiring fast data throughput rates before 2004 should do so on a country by country as the new services become available.
