Google And China Mobile To Offer Physical World Connection With QRCodes Freitag, 25. August 2006, 17:43:36
I'm not really into that physical connector
thing yet, simply because none of my phones are supported by the Kaywa QR Code Reader (and I haven't found another one, either). But this blog entry by The Pondering Primate caught my eye:
Google And China Mobile To Offer Physical World Connection With QRCodes
China Mobile, Google, Nokia and a pre-installed QRcode reader. That sounds like physical world connection to me. The world's largest wireless carrier, the biggest search engine and the biggest mobile phone manufacturer.
While the PWC guys are trying to convince wireless carriers how much ARPU (avg rev per user) that can generate with 2d codes, and trying to get phone manuf to preinstall on the phone, Google is doing it for them.
Looks like China is going to rule the world after all, with Google and Nokia kneeling at the throne. Kinda scary.
