I disagree. There are only two types of forms which accept human input that are user friendly on a mobile device. Im not talking about checkboxes or select fields. These two forms are 1) Enter Zipcode to receive localized infomation 2) Enter phone number to get some SMS or MMS or Signup for an alert. Why only these two? What about an email address? NO, becuase there is no scripting to to validate and its difficult for a user to type in the @ and . for an email address. No Forms? I disagree.

You say a lot of things that are in common with what Bango and .mobi say about mobile marketing - it's good to see people thinking about this now. There are some good comments worth checking out on http://forums.bango.com. Bango have also just come out with a strange but cool new PC widget called a Bango button - it lets you publish photos and music to handsets from a PC website without needing to develop any mobile sites. Check out http://www.myspace.com/moonlife for a good example. I always said 80's synth pop was on the way back! :-) Nice article.
