Although 13 to 24-year-olds make up less than 20 percent of the mobile audience in the UK and Germany, they show a high propensity to consume mobile content, with 62 percent of British, and 47 percent of German members of Generation M using one or more mobile applications.

The challenge the mobile content industry faces is to similarly engage a higher percentage of older consumers. (Quote by - Paul Goode)

It's egotistical to think we're the only ones providing content that's valuable.

Contentment is a pearl of great price, and whoever procures it at the expense of ten thousand desires makes a wise and a happy purchase. (Quote by - John Balguy)
The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment.

The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulus. (Quote by - Billy Graham)

The JoeCartoon content is a lot of fun. It's cool, edgy, would lend itself to a huge range of content on mobile phone handsets - and don't get me started on videogames. Instead of rescuing princesses or finding fruit, gems or tiny hearts, JoeCartoon gets straight to the violence and killing things, though it is all very tongue in cheek and black humor. We're delighted to be working with JoeCartoon and we're looking forward to bringing gamers, mobile owners and cartoon fans worldwide a whole new experience. (Quote by - Brad Young)
