Anybody running a business from their phone ?
Re: types of mobile markets.
How about the non-smartphone market? What do I need one for? All I want from a phone is the ability to send texts, make calls, and simple everyday use utilities like a calandar, calculator, notepad, alarm etc.

Yes and no. Sorta do a billion and one things, a lot on Etsy and Folksy. About 80% of what I do I do on a mobile (a lot of marketing, Twitter, Pintrest etc). Its a lot easier in a quick fire generation to spread yourself about with various mobile apps. Theres 2 things I use a PC for, Weebly website (which if I switched too Wordpress, that would be mobile), and forums (not all work on Tapatalk). Photos are a struggle getting on and off net and cropping them etc, but I am not selling photographs yet.
I do now have a 7 inch tablet however, not a great one, chinese naffy thing. Certainly allows me to to use office apps more easily (Kingsoft etc). It has a USB host so can take keyboard and mouse, and take pictures off my camera. To be honest, if I could get Ubuntu on the tablet, my desktop PC's sole use would be Second Life.

Re: types of mobile markets.
I am newbie here, I used my smartphone for my business and used like Email checking and chat from smartphone.
Re: types of mobile markets.
I use mine primarily for news, web surfing, and (don't forget) phone calls and SMS. Oh, and navigation.
I do sometimes use mine for video and music, but I also have a Sony Walkman that's really good for music. Not so good for video, but I'd rather deplete the Walkman's battery than the phone's battery.
Mobile phone games are pretty pathetic. I don't care if they only cost $1.99, my phone has limited storage space that I could easily use for useful stuff. I have a 3DS I use for games, and it's a much better experience playing games on a 3DS with physical controls than trying to mess around with touchscreen or accelerometer controls.

^^^ This.
Google maps might have been useful when I was out of town the other week, but the driver & navigator preferred to use their memories.
