Mobile Net, mobile porn

Everything that our children can be exposed to on the Web will soon be on cell phones. A lot already is. CNET columnist Molly Wood does a great job of laying out the not-so-pretty mobile-phone picture today. What "bigger screens, higher resolution, more colors, and video capability" mean in this context, that mobile porn will be a $5 billion industry by 2010, and that the US market for this content is only playing catch-up to what's happening in Europe, Asia, and South America. Some countermeasures are in the works - see "Filtering phones."
