hi all!
just wondering if anyone has book recommendations on designing
interfaces for mobile devices?
even though i've been doing ia for 9 years, it seems that i can't get
a job in mobile until i've done mobile (nice.) so i thought i'd do
some design work on my own to put in my book.
any suggestion would be most appreciated (i'll post all to the list)

hi,
Designing for Small Screens Studio: Mobile Phones, Smart Phones, PDAs,
Pocket PCs, Navigation Systems, MP3 Players, Games Consoles (Design)
(Paperback)
by Carola Zwick, Burkhard Schmitz, Studio 7.5
it only gives a good overview but covers many important issues. You
can always check the reference list for more detailed information
about a item in particular.
this book is very well organised.

In the meantime, the site also has a book for mobile web design and
another book for mobile Java design.

Hi All,
I didn't dig into the archive to find the original post but I recall that someone asked about resources regarding design for mobile devices. I don't recall anyone mentioning Scott Weiss' book, "Handheld Usability."
The web site is http://handheldusability.com/
I have no financial interest, however am aware of the book's existence.
Peace,
Doug
