The mobile phone is currently the easiest and most adopted social technology which can support gambling games. Once something even more widespread and more often used is found, gambling will be all over that new medium.
Personally, I do not mind the extra convenience. The casinos are trying really hard to please us in any way possible just so we will gamble on their site. Its a good self regulating system.
I do think however, that those newbie gamblers will get bored of mobile gambling once they become veteran gamblers.
I have never understood gambling on mobile phone, because it is such a small screen. Well I never understood watching youtube or movies on the phone neither and yet tens of millions of people do it everyday, maybe even over a hundred million people. Look at the data on google and youtube and so forth, they have such a huge amount of people using them from their mobile phones.
I am not the odd man out here, there are still tons of people who use their computers to gamble, not like I am unique, but I never understood all those people who use mobile phone because I just feel like in order to do that you can't take it too seriously, I take it too seriously and that is why I do it from my computer instead.
