This book-length report explores the idea that e-learning technologies will go mobile. Readers will find chapter 4 interesting, containing as it does an extensive survey of existing m-learning initiatives. But overall, I do not think that the telephone, wireless or not (and most of the report looks at such technology) is an appropriate locus of learning, except in limited circumstances. Unless we can get a larger display and more flexible interface, online learning will be dominated by the desktop. It should not, because wireless access is one of the great new technologies to emerge in recent years. I still think something like the Tablet computer will be the dominant e-learning tool.
