Jupiter’s Taxonomy of Mobile Form Factors
Michael Gartenberg at Jupiter describes their taxonomy of mobile device form factors in a post on the the Apple iPod Nano:
Stuff that needs its own bag (ex: business projectors)
Stuff that goes into your bag (ex: notebooks,)
Stuff that fits on your person (ex: PDAs, phones, iPods)
Stuff that’s invisible (ex: watches, key chains, clothing)
Lately, I have a limited tolerance for anything beyond “fits on your person” and am trying (unsuccessfully) to move my mobile setup towards the “invisible” category.
