Looking at the infograph, it's foursquare and Brightkite that have high-volume of check-ins via SMS. Interesting.

This is like mint.com for businesses. I like the mint.com application but the problem is it is only for those with US bank accounts. I have a quick look at indindero.com, and it shows I can integrate Paypal. Interesting. Local online sellers using paypal may be able to use this.

There's a saying about too much choices can lead to not making any choice. So the too many android devices can be a plus for the iphone?

Wireless Access for Health utilizes 3G wireless technology to enable a locally developed electronic health record system. In the Philippines, local health care providers compile and report public health data to the Field Health Service Information System (FHSIS), which is the major source of data used for policy analysis and planning. The Wireless Access for Health project aims to streamline this reporting process by building on and strengthening the existing Community Health Information Tracking System (CHITS), an electronic medical record system developed by the University of the Philippines Manila. CHITS improves patient care and access to public health information by consolidating data captured during patient visits into reports for health care workers in four health units in the Tarlac region of the Philippines.

I wonder why not SMS. Owkei, I think I'm being too pushy about it. But why not?

Why do you think more consumers are using their phones for mobile payments and mobile banking?
The answer to the question varies by country.

For example, in Africa, mobile payments is enabling people to pay their utility bills, which means they do not need to spend a whole day once a month queuing to pay their utility bills. And the local government can send hardship payments directly to the people in need.

In Germany, mobile payments is being used to make Internet shopping safer—and with a lower-than-average adoption of credit cards in Germany, it enables online shopping using just your bank account—and your mobile phone.

In America, it is being used so people can keep on top of their finances and increasingly to enable bill pay via the phone.

In parts of Asia, it is enabling migrant workers to not only send money safely and securely home, but also to enable parents to remote top-up the airtime credit on the children’s phones, ensuring they can always phone home.

And the list goes on. As you can see there is no single reason for mobile payments—it will fulfill different needs in different parts of the world.

The case study cited in Asia sounds like much based on Philippines.
