Abstract

This paper presents a review on mobile phones, from an Indonesian perspective to investigate the prospect of using mobile phones for mobile learning based training. The review revealed the potential of mobile phones, compared to other mobile devices, to be used as the primary tool in a mobile learning system. In Indonesia, mobile phones are used extensively, and the price for devices and services are affordable for Indonesians. The broad coverage area of the mobile network was also a reason to choose mobile phones as the preferred mobile learning device.
