Tailor the Internet toward smartphones is the word from Rogers Communications Inc. It plans to recast the definition of the Internet and how it is used as more Canadians transition toward smart-phones.
Rogers chief executive Nadir Mohamed in the keynote address at the Canadian Telecom Summit in Toronto said:
The notion of Internet at home [or] Internet at the office is changing to: your Internet, wherever you are. It is very powerful. Canadians’ appetite to communicate, access information and entertainment, and even make transactions through their wireless device is becoming insatiable.
He added that Toronto-based Rogers, the largest wireless carrier in the country, is moving quickly to bring mobile Internet to the masses.
By 2014, more than three million Canadians will be users of smart-phones, such as the Apple iPhone or the Research In Motion BlackBerry, which surf the Web and provide e-mail.
Rogers will shortly introduce the iPhone 3G S, Apple’s latest device, which is at least twice as fast as its predecessor.
