Abstract: A laboratory experiment was conducted in order to study user behaviour in a mobile shopping scenario. The experiment consisted of an artificial camera store and a mobile information service for use by the participants. This paper summarises our qualitative observations concerning the participants' behaviour. We present an analysis of the comments made by the participants on the use of the mobile decision aid, and we discuss these comments. The paper ends with recommendations for designers of mobile decision aids and with suggestions for further research.
