We picked three that have most potential and utility:

Location Awareness
Location-sensing technologies (powered by GPS as well as Wi-Fi and triangulation) provide live information on users’ locations to enhance mobile social networking applications. Over the next two years, this sort of technology is expected to become more mainstream. There are still a bunch of privacy questions around this: Do you want all your online friends and acquaintances to really know your exact location? Will turning off location awareness signal mean that you’re up to something sneaky (so asks the suspicious wife, husband, or boss)?

Mobile User Interfaces
With mobile applications the User Interface is crucial as the screen size is limited and the user is usually multitasking. Apple has been so successful because of their UI. Businesses will need to mobilize their B2E (business-to-employee) and B2C (business-to-customer) applications to keep up with a rapidly-evolving standard for mobile user interface.

Mobile Widgets
Widget-like applications will become more common especially when reaching consumers. Gartner highlights that mobile web still has challenges ahead. For example, there are no standards for browser access to handset services like the camera or GPS.

Mobilestead will help businesses to meet their mobile objectives and leverage the above to increase productivity, save money and increase customer satisfaction.
