AMEDIACIR.CLIP: Mobile Web Access Statistics

Some say that one day handsets will be the primary way that the web is accessed. While I do not fully subscribe to this notion, I do feel that mobile devices will make up a large percent of devices accessing the web.

In the US we are still a bit behind. In the next few years we will begin to see a major shift towards accessing the the web via a mobile device.
