Apologies to the Register for stealing their Yahoo! headline schtick. 2008 will be the year mobile porn gets a foothold on the market, say a number of sources in the industry.

And the US only spent $24 million — for shame!
The bandwidth most of us get on our non-3G phones isn’t enough for anything more than e-mail and crippled mobile web, so if the industry wants its consumers to shell out for a mobile peep show, they’ll need to up the transfer speeds. Here’s hoping.
