/24-7PressRelease/ - BURY, UK, June 29, 2008 - Research by the Internet Advertising Bureau, indicated that the status of email as the top method of communicating was unchallenged. This is due in no small part to the advent of high speed mobile broadband connections
Experts say that it is the versatility of email which makes it so popular. Users can contact each other from a variety of devices, regardless of what software or hardware they are using. Email is free and unlike SMS and Instant Messaging, users are not limited to a certain number of characters in each message
As the technology in BlackBerry, PDAs and other mobile devices develops, alongside mobile broadband, there is scope for email to overtake text messaging as the most used means of communication.
A study by Habeas showed that 67 per cent of those asked found email preferable to other methods of internet communication such as instant messaging.
A spokesperson for Genesis communications, providers of Microsoft exchange email hosting solutions commented:
"Email has firmly established itself as the most versatile and accessible means of communication. With the rapid uptake in mobile devices, which are becoming more and more advanced, this is set to be the case for years to come.
