Have your say on mobile phones

The NovitaTech Research & Development department, with funding from the Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts (DCITA), is conducting a study into the usability and complexity of mobile phone technology from mid September 07 to mid October 07.

This project aims to evaluate the hypothesis that currently available mobile phone products do not adequately meet the needs or desires of people with physical disability or older people (over the age of 65 years). An outcome of the research will be to identify and specify the features that will meet the needs of this consumer group with regard to physical dimensions, look and feel and also required/preferred functionality of mobile phones.
