Evaluation of scenarios

Scenarios Pros Cons

Operator

• Operators control customer experience• Intense price competition among operators

will keep service affordable• Ability to provide unified billing for services

and content

• Breadth and quality of content and commerce are limited

• Users will ultimately choose services based on content brand names

Market

• Capitalizes on strengths of individual players• Customer has direct contact with content

provider• No big brother: protection of private life

• Risk of anarchy• Difficulty to reach the customer and maintain

the distribution channels

Portal

• Allows users a virtually seamless transition from the desktop to mobile world

• Core competency is a provision of highly customized content and services

• Portal may just serve as a launch pad to the Internet for users

• Rules for sharing third-party content with mobile users are complex and uncertain
