Maybe think a minute about the time the EU / Germany is ahead in the mobile market and mobile marketing compared to the US of A and then call me a newb again 
Do I care if you can't get your head around the fact that a new stage of entertain-mobility and marketing is just in it's baby-shoes and is just waiting to be conquered by the right people that can see the potential?
Hell no.

as even the good mr J$tyles knows, I have spent most of the last 10 years in europe and traveling. maybe you don't know that the USA has ALWAYS been many years behind in mobile technology and even today is still 3-4-5 years behind. there were mobile phones on a large scale way before there was in the US. now that i think about it, I remember german friends telling me how much money they were making from ringtones in 1998. even today, its only been big for a couple years in the US. People here don't know what 3G is. it was only two years ago that i was trying to buy a GSM phone here and surprised to see that no one knew what i was talking about here... yet it was already the world standard. you don't see ads on tv here like you do in europe for ringtones (i have seen ONE actually) or for sms dating or sex stuff like you do in europe. here its just non existent still. The US is VERY far behind Europe.
I am aware of mobile content, what people pay for it, what the market is worth and have mainstream sites doing quite well selling mobile content. americans still don't even know what 3G is.
all of that has nothing to do with the simple and UNDENIABLE fact that porn is and always has been an impulse purchase and bought for one and one reason only. i dont think the argument that buying porn compares somehow to buying wallpapers, ringtones, carrying cases, mobile games, mobile chat clients or other carrier services holds any water at all. just my opinion.
can people sell porn via mobile phones? of course.
does it make sense for some guy who owns "stephaniesnakedsite.com" to focus time and energy and capital on trying to produce, edit and sell content via mobile phones? no. i dont think so.
it will never rival the sales you can do to a guy with a stiff dick sitting in a dark room in front of his 21" monitor and surround sound. it will never even come remotely close.
does it make sense for Lars or someone huge to look into it? sure.
its importance and potential impact will always be overstated... the idea of mobile porn is to me like the predictions of a paperless office. its a neat idea to some. its appealing to people in this biz to imagine a new, multibillion dollar market waiting to be tapped but its been hyped for years now and people today are still saying "hey, look... a naked girl on my phone"
