Taken from Infoworld:
"Zumobi is offering a piece of software, currently only compatible with Windows Mobile phones, that works in connection with a back-end server and is designed to make mobile Internet use easier. The user interface is made up of 16 tiles on which users can easily zoom in and out. Each tile represents a Web page.
Zumobi’s back-end servers are constantly updating the Web sites on the phone, so a user doesn’t have to wait for the site to load after they click the tile. Users determine what site appears in each tile, and they can send tiles to each other.
The service will be free for end-users — except for related mobile data network usage — and advertising supported. Advertisers could sponsor specific tiles that might offer information users might want, such as traffic updates. If an operator preloads the software onto phones, the operator gets a cut of the advertising revenue. "
