Your honest thoughts and opinions on this...?

Let us say, that there is mobile social network available online. And that mobile social network gives you premium mobile content for free to download. Also, the portal allows you to send sms blasts to large number of friends with one click. The portal also gives you to subscribe to some services like daily news, astro news etc. what would ur reaction be? More importantly, what kind of mobile social network, what kind of services, what sort of mobile applications would like to see in the portal?


What sort of advertisements would u like to see in your mobile? What if the portal gives free WAP services?


Can I have your honest replies, please?

Your honest thoughts and opinions on this...?
If this is indeed possible, i.e. so many goodies without paying a paise, I would honestly welcome it and grab it with both hands. My expereience says that what is usually advertised as free, has hidden costs. And many a service starts out with a lot of freebies to entice customers only. Once these companies have what they want, all the services start coming with charges and often exorbitantly. We all realise that today it is not possible to offer anything free of cost. So somewhere or somehow customers are being made to pay or will be made to pay for the services used. But if the charges are at least manageable, then why not?


As for mobile social networking, most persons would usually prefer chat services with friends and connections. Other than that if the services enable internet searching, so much the better. I understand that the premium downloads mentioned in the question largely refer to ringtones and things like that. If it specifically includes games and music files (preferably video) that would be a great package. In BSNL (Cellone), one doesn't have to pay for GPRS (or for that matter WAP, I guess) connection. Nor does it charge any rentals. The charges are only for the downloads. A detailed discussion on the offers would be more helpful to decide whether the new service would be more cost effective than the others already existing in the market.
Reply:honestly to keep it short, it would be exactly like a laptop with internet and a phone all built in one.
Reply:This could happen, but it is a long way off just because everything you would like to see in it requires a lot of bandwidth that isn't available right now. I'm happy being able to make a call and access the internet.
