Summary
In summary the interface will need to be designed to be viewed in a screen size of a minimum of 176 x 220 pixel although a lot of mobile phones currently have 240 x 320 pixels and future releases of phones share the larger screen size aswell.
Mobile phones are not yet supplied with 3G connectivity as standard and use GPRS. Up coming mobile phones also have this problem of not having GPRS as standard.
Mobile have blutooth as a standard option.
Navigation is mainly undertaken by a 4-way navigation joystick/buttons with atleast 2 soft keys to support them.
