-'''Mobile device code''' is presently complex and difficult to write.  The emergence of [[Python]] on some [[Nokia]] platforms is very encouraging, and according to its own R&D division, 1000 lines of [[C++]] can be replaced by 11 lines of Python in a typical application.  They also demonstrate [[RFID]] as a feature of their new phones, making [[Consumerium Services]] incredibly easy to implement for those products that have an [[RFID tag]].
+'''Mobile device code''' is presently complex and difficult to write.
+Currently the most widely adopted "smart" mobile device platform is [[Symbian]] expecially the [[series 60]] flavor developed and licenced by [[Nokia]]. Series 60 Symbian supports native C++ programs, [[Java]] [[MIDP]] and apparently [[Python]] is being introduced now.

 Also a likely future trend is the embedding of [[Near Field Communication]] technology, which allows instant communication for devices within 15cm distance of each other, to mobile phones, which would be even more handy for Consumerium since the [[product identification]] could be done via embedding [[NFC]] devices into the store shelves.
