Consumers Like Mobile- and Browser-Based Banking Apps Equally
"Whether it’s best to offer a mobile app versus a browser occupies a large space in the discussion among mobile bank execs, but new research suggests that consumers are using both equally, but for different purposes.

Research Shows 40 Percent of US Consumers With Mobile Phones, Smartphones and Tablets Embrace Mobile Banking
"A recent online survey of more than 2,000 respondents by YouGov Plc. and Antenna Software, Inc., showed that more than one in three US consumers with mobile phones, smartphones and tablets currently use mobile banking.

Mobile banking to help 2 billion people by 2020

Most active mobile banking platform? Palm Pre…
"As a certified mobile early adopter I’m laying my venerable Palm Pre to rest (sans the Bling tag that I surreptitiousness transferred to the back of a PayPal employee’s phone at a conference last week), to slumber in a drawer next to a Kyocera brickphone…I mean…smartphone that I lugged around back in the 90’s."
