Via CrissCrossed blog site. 1 page., Announces an approaching virtual forum about this topic. Author notes the potential of mobile phones for development, but thinks the concept is in the midst of a hype. Urges remembering some important lessons learned from many projects that involve use of information and communication technologies for development.
Author examines the challenges and limitation of recent ICT developments, especially when "for millions of people, they remain no more than a dream." Also reminds that the concept of "communications technology" encompasses more than computers and the internet.
