Silicon Valley Interview Criteria

We're now recruiting "advanced users" of wireless connectivity (i.e., over cellular or Wi-Fi networks) to interview in the Silicon Valley. We're hoping you might help us find them. You, your spouse, a friend or a neighbor might be the kind of person we're looking to interview. We're interviewing about 25-30 people. The interview is conducted face to face and is about 2 hours long. We can offer a $50 incentive and a copy of the final research report (when appropriate) to participants.

By "advanced user" we mean the person who

1. uses wireless connectivity (over cellular or Wi-Fi networks) beyond voice applications TO access the Internet for work, social or other activities/communication

2. uses wireless connectivity on a daily basis AND outside the home or workplace (e.g., in public spaces, cafes, public transportation etc.)

The advanced user may use wireless connectivity to access the Internet using a variety of devices (or combination of devices) such as a PDA, mobile phone, or laptop. Persons who have wireless LANs at home and/or at work in addition to wireless connectivity on some mobile device are particularly important to interview.

We're looking for a mix of work experiences and age. We're also seeking to interview a few people under 20 who are not employed yet but otherwise meet our criteria as an advanced user. If you know someone that meets our criteria and would be interested in being interviewed please let me know.

Thanks
