As many as 25 million mobile phone subscribers in the US could be using their handsets as mobile wallets by 2011, technology watchers have predicted.

Analyst firm In-Stat said that mobile commerce, the transaction concept touted in the 1990s that never took hold, is set to take off.

The 'mobile wallet' is now a much more versatile application, according to In-Stat, that includes elements such as membership cards, loyalty cards and other forms of identification."
