Key highlights of the survey, which focused on mobile data using consumers, include:

• Mobile has surpassed TV in terms of time, with consumers spending 27% of their media time on mobile, compared to 22% on TV
• Over half of mobile users (53%) have made purchases via their mobile devices, with three-quarters (76%) planning to do so within the next year
• 42% of users claim mobile advertising has introduced them to something new, with 66% stating that they are 'just as comfortable' with mobile advertising as they are with TV

Availability, ease of use and privacy appear to be the top three factors driving increased mobile usage. Along with PCs and TVs, mobile is the most powerful form of media influencing purchasing decisions.

Said Tewari: "The results of our survey showcase the ways in which mobile devices are revolutionizing the media landscape in every corner of the world."  The full survey results will be available at the time of his MWC presentation.

2012 will mark the third year of InMobi's attendance at MWC.  In addition to Tewari's presentation, Tewari and other key InMobi spokespeople will be on hand at the InMobi booth, stand 2.1C64, Hall 2,1, at Mobile World Congress.  To coordinate briefings, contact Jill Ivey, Hotwire PR, [email protected] or 215.806.2951.
