SAN FRANCISCO Calif.--In the midst of the credit crisis many remain bullish about the mobile Internet. If the attendance of the Open Mobile Summit conference taking place in just a couple weeks in San Francisco is anything to go by there is still plenty of confidence in the sector. Theres no doubt that the economic crisis will impair discretional spending which will impact revenues said executive producer Robin Batt. Meanwhile the credit crunch will make it harder for both established brands and start-ups to access cash. However this wont reverse Internet wireless convergence. The disruption in wireless - brought about by the trend towards open Internet models is now inexorable. The fact that there is also general economic pressure on wireless industry players to reinvent their business models only reinforces this trend Said Batt. Everyone operators software companies content and application players and handset manufacturers needs to adjust their strategies to compete in the open mobile economy. Thats why we have 200 industry leaders from across the US and rest of world coming together at the Open Mobile Summit. Times might be tough but people still need to do business. And now theres even more pressure to get new business models right in the light of the economic pressure.
