And not everyone agrees with the conclusions

40April 24th, 2013

At Telefónica we strongly believe that the openess of the Web is the way forward on mobile

41April 24th, 2013

So we started looking at what was needed to fix the issues with the mobile Web

Web Apps Monetization Mechanism

Web Apps Discovery Mechanism

Richer Mobile Web APIs

True cross Platform Support

Mobile Web technologies Performance

42April 24th, 2013

HTML5 promises to fix most of these issues

43April 24th, 2013

44April 24th, 2013

Bringing lost of new improvements

• Native audio and video support

• Offline storage support

• Plays nice with batteries

• Nice transitions, animations and transfomations via improved CSS

• 3G graphics support via WebGL

• Lots of devices APIs

• WebRTC for real time communications

• Canvas to read, write and convert pixels (The browser fountain)

45April 24th, 2013

Providing a common framework for development of universal web pages and applications across desktop and mobile

Apps will be portable across devices

HTML5 mitigates fragmentations issues and is truly cross platform for mobile, desktop and tablets

There are more developers in the world familiar with Web technologies than any other programming language

Some key Web players are already developing entirely in HTML5 (Twitter, Amazon, Financial Times, etc.)

Lots of native mobile apps are in fact HTML5 based

46April 24th, 2013

With developers very interested in HTML5

Web developers are the largest developer

However, HTML5 standards and browser support needs to improve to reach full potential …

51April 24th, 2013

And at Telefónica we created a project to fix this

52April 24th, 2013

And in the other side of the world, Mozilla was having the same idea

53April 24th, 2013

So we joint forces to create Firefox OS, a true Web OS entirely based on HTML5 from the ground up

54April 24th, 2013

Firefox OS allows the creation of HTML5 only devices

55April 24th, 2013

Unleashing the true potential of the mobile Web unlike other platforms

Fastest and most complete performance of HTML5 and mobile Web apps at low cost

Mobile phones where everything running is a mobile web application.
