Mobile gaming is fast approaching the audience level of online casinos.  In Japan, the very first major mobile gaming event transpired with great success.  The Japanese new year’s lottery led to several entrepreneurs testing out the new technology.  Now online casinos and sports gambling are all available on mobile devices. 

Now that mobile gaming is growing to a point where many sources can see its business potential, it is facing many of the problems online casinos faced in its early days, as far as needs for regulation and monitoring.  There is a concern that mobile gaming does not have adequate protection against manipulation of betting odds.

Online casinos did not reach its tough regulation standards until years after the industry became mainstream.  Mobile gambling will have to go through the same process.  Issues of reliability, payment systems, and company confidentiality have yet to be addressed.

The few problems facing mobile gaming is not enough to distract top European online casino operators from seeing the enormous potential of the gaming venue and investing millions of dollars into new technology.  Blue Square and Ladbrokes are among the companies attempting to stay ahead of the curve. 

Not only are the companies responsible for top of the line online casinos involve, but cell phone giants like Ericsson and Nokia are also trying to develop new software for the blooming industry.  Many cell phones are not currently designed to handle online casino software, so many companies are focusing on producing handsets that give clients access to mobile gaming.
