Determinants of adopting mobile Internet TV in Bangkok

This research identifies the elements people consider important in their decision to adopt mobile internet TV. A theoretical framework was developed to describe adopting Internet TV via mobile device. The constructs used in the research model were Perceived Usefulness and Perceived Ease of Use, based on consumers' cognitive judgments of the service or the technology, from Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).
