| GamblingPhD menu | Cell Phone Online Gambling March 25, 2009 The only thing that online gambling patrons like more than the fact that they can play in their living room would be the idea that they could play on their cell phones. Indeed, the idea of online gambling on cell phones is not that hard to understand or to conceive as being a very real possibility in the not to distant future. However, when you think about online gambling and the way that it has grown over the past ten years, why would it be so far fetched to think that there is no place that would make more sense for the industry to grow from here? It is becoming easier and easier to access the internet, and between Blackberries and iPhones and all the things that they are capable of, it is only a matter of time before people have the ability to play online gambling on their phones no matter where they are. According to experts because the communication industry has been making it so easy for people to do things on their handsets that they can do on their computers, eventually they will have the proper programming to bring in online gambling on their phones as well. It is a natural progression, and some think that it will only be a year or two at the most before everyone has that capability. The precursor to the ability to participate in online gambling was really the ability to get your own email from wherever you host it. Then the ability to surf the web from your hand held device was the next way of doing it, and these seemingly small advancements that happen in between are what will make it possible to get online gambling in the palm of your hand.
