Abstract

Mobile communications will soon revolutionise how we study, work, and live. Many organisations however are still hesitant when it comes to investing in wireless technology, despite its fast growth, for various reasons. Understanding the users' expectations of the technology, and how they use and perceive it would allow designers and manufacturers to improve or innovate on their technology and help administrators and users in their planning, adoption, and ongoing use of the new technology. This study examined the factors and processes that influence the adoption of wireless technologies on campus.
