I particularly liked the last paragraph about App Store trend and its implications on managing the mobile wallet (secure element). A lightweight mechanism to enable consumers to load things into their mobile wallet, without the TSM, will help kick-start mobile commerce in the US. For e.g., a consumer should be able to load/enter their dozen loyalty cards (some of these are not even personalized) into their mobile wallet and start using them at merchant locations. This would take a load off their wallet! I have expressed similar views in my recent blog (http://bit.ly/JqWHX). Carol,
