Mobile internet access is growing in popularity all over the world and currently the United Kingdom is the leader in cell phone internet usage.

According to research from comScore and Telephia, 5.7 million people in the UK used a mobile device to access the web during January 2007, compared to 30 million people age 15 or older who accessed the web from a PC.

By comparison, 30 million of 176 million US internet users were accessing data from their handsets.

The research also found that the most frequent mobile internet users were men under 35, making up two thirds of users.

What are your thoughts on mobile internet use? Does the smaller display screen make surfing the web less enjoyable to do?
