Purpose
For many people, the mobile phone has become much more than a phone. The mobile 'phone' now sends and receives emails and text messages, it takes and sends pictures, it surfs the Web, it chats via SMS text and using instant messaging clients, it plays music and more. One aspect in the 'more' category is data storage. Mobile phones can have 8Gb, 16Gb or more of data storage capacity.One mobile phone which has raised the bar for the others and represents the phenomenon of life revolving around the device is the Apple iPhone. Apple also provides the same device sans phone capabilities as the iPod Touch. However, the iPod Touch doesn't have the cost subsidization from the mobile phone provider so it actually costs about twice as much. I suppose if you already have a mobile phone with another provider and you are locked into the contract, maybe it makes sense. But, for the extra money you spend on the iPod Touch you could just pay the early termination fee on your existing mobile phone contract and get an iPhone. But, I digress.
With life revolving around the device, people tend to store more and more sensitive information. When they want a credit card number, the iPhone is right there. If they need to know a social security number, or a frequent flyer number, or the login information for their bank account, the iPhone is right there in their pocket and makes a perfect place to store that data. However, the iPhone (or iPod Touch) is also easily lost or stolen and that data needs to be securely protected using a product like mSecure.
