To the mobile literacy list I would add:
- Being able to read through the marketing blabla.
- Know some mobile blogs to find information and get advice when needed
- Understanding that design is not everything and it's often coming with poor usability.
- Being able to resist a 0. $ phone with a two-year subscription.
- When buying making sure, you can give your phone back - (would the RAZR be still successfull then?)
- How to access a site on the internet, when to stop a download and why
- How to use your phone camera. Having an idea about Pixels, Macros and other functions.
- Knowledge of some of the acronyms and unfortunately in mobile there is a plethora. GSM, GPRS, UMTS, EDGE, HSDPA and 2.5, 3G / GPS, A-GPS / SMS, MMS / ShortID
- Basic knowledge about Barcodes: One- and Two-dimensional, EAN Barcode, QR Code, Datamatrix Code / ISO-Standards versus Proprietary Ones;)
