Consumers Using the Mobile Web More Often

More juicy info from the Online Publishers Association: according to another study of theirs, 71% of U.S. users have access to the Internet on their phones, while 41% said that they’ve actually used it.

Most people said that they’re not too happy with browsing the Web from their phones, as this Mediaweek report indicates. More than half (58%) said that they’re “less than satisfied” with the experience, citing slow access and sites that are difficult to navigate.

A quarter of respondents plan to access the Internet from their cell phones more often this year.
