Recently, there has been much speculation on whether m-commerce will overtake e-commerce in the near future. According to the reputed research firm Gartner Inc., the shift from e-commerce to m-commerce is real and will reach a tipping point by 2015. Analysts from Gartner mentioned that mobile applications as well as social media will account for 50 percent of web sales by that time. Furthermore, Gartner said that e-commerce merchants will become capable of offering context-aware as well as mobile-based application capabilities. These will become capable of being accessed via a browser or even installed in the form of an application at that point.
