When commissioning the team to think about how to respond to the emergence of the PDA with our own in-house creation, creative director Wil Arndt said, "You're holding a computer in the palm of your hand--it's like frickin' Star Trek, man." Before iPads, iPods, iPhones, and the rest... there was mod7's Dots Magazine.
Dots was "the first arts & culture magazine specifically designed for handheld" and mobile devices. (It's true-- look it up ).
Sadly defunct due to the fact that we hated writing these articles every month and we weren't in the publishing business (even though we faithfully kept it up for a few years), it showed that we knew where things were going. Even if it took the rest of the mobile universe years to finally catch up.
