Abstract

Mobile technologies are commonplace in our society, with more than 4.5 billion mobile cellulars registered worldwide in 2009. With so much available equipment, learning solutions providers have a long history of experiments concerning the delivery of information to a specific user, preferable in any location he might be. However recent surveys or position stances assumed by teachers, trainers or authors seem to indicate that behind mobile learning discussions lays a very immobile reality.
