  New technology marrying the Internet with mobile phones will be the next big wave in telecommunications and will have a great effect on the way of lifeindustry experts in Singapore for an international conference said last week.

  Consumers(消费者) will soon be showing off tiny“communication devices”that join mobile telephones, Internet terminals(终端机), music systems, cameras and other uses, Nokia executive(总裁) Bo Ilsoe said.

  The devices will become smaller, and as common as watches, Ilsoe believed“We have to liberate the Internet from the desktop and we have to rethink what a mobile phone is, because it's no longer a mobile phone,”said Ilose, a marking director for Nokja.

  Tiny, wireless computers using satellites and videoondemand services will soon have people “switching(开关) between your stock(股票) prices and television programs”wherever they go, said Subra Venkat, a communications director at Oracle Corporation. Both executives were in Singapore for CommunicAsia'99, Asia's largest telecommunications conference. More than 27,000 industry insiders and 900 companies were connected with the June 2225 event, organizes said.

  Though small, portable(手提的)Intemet computer' with builtin mobile phones are alreadyon the market, they have had limited success. Internettelephone technology(IT) must be made easier to use, and must be used no matter what kind of phone one has, Ilsoe said. This will be aided largely by a planned mobile phone operating system called Symbian, he added.

  Increased access(路径)to communication statellites and mobile phone networks, along with faster and larger international cable systems, is likely to make wireless Internet access explode in the next few years, said some scientists who attended the conference.
