Smart phone and travel market

I think that it is the time for people who work in travel market to focus on business on smart phones.
Firstly, the cost of new smart phone is always high. Thus, there are not many people who buy new phones directly. They sign the contract with telephone line companies. And for most of the contracts, 3G is always included. Thus, it enables people to use internet everywhere.
Secondly, business men, especially who work in travel market must travel a lot. Nowadays, smart phones help them a lot contacting with partners, and clients. By this way, they dont lose their big contracts. Therefore, more and more businessmen are interested in smartphones.
Take an example of Iphone which is used by more and more people, there are a lot of appilication for people to check flight time/ train time on Iphone. Sncf already establised an application on Iphone. By this way, people can do check train details, book or cancel trains whenever and wherever they are.
I think that hotels and travel agencies can make an application on smart phones. It means that people can access to the pages of hotels or travel agencies everywhere. It saves a lot of time for people.
With the fast innovation in technology, hotels and travel agencies must catch up with this in order to meet the demand of customers.
