Morgan Stanley analyst, Mary Meeker, says that mobile Internet usage is ramping up substantially faster than desktop Internet usage did, a view she and her team arrived at by comparing the adoption rates of iPhone/iPod touch to that of AOL and Netscape in the early 1990s. According to Meeker, adoption of the Apple devices is taking place more than 11 times faster that of AOL, and several times as fast as that of Netscape. She predicts that within the next five years more users will connect to the Internet over mobile devices than desktop PCs.
