- Product Description
- The next-generation mobile address book isn't just about bringing the clutter of social networks into your mobile phone. It's about creating a high-speed, people-centric index into your relationships and communications. The Asurion Mobile AddressBook is an open, context-rich launching pad for the things you want to do every day on your phone.
- Market Opportunity
- According to the Yankee Group, the number of smartphone users in the United States will double to 23 percent of all wireless subscribers by 2012. According to eMarketer, mobile social network users will grow from 82 million in 2007 to 803 million in 2012.
- DEMO Says
- People, not applications, are at the center of our social experience. Asurion's framework pivots the mobile social experience on the individuals important to your network, creating a more efficient and effective mobile social address book because it puts people ahead of applications. Other mobile social applications provide gateways to Web-based networks, but we think Asurion delivers the best context to enable people to reach people, rather than the programs people use.
