Abstract: The spread of handheld wireless devices gives firms new opportunities to transact business with customers through mobile technology, also referred to as mobile commerce. This paper describes a study of the antecedents of attitudes toward, and intentions to use, mobile commerce. We used data from 296 US student consumers to test our model. The results showed that experience with e-commerce positively influences consumers' perceived involvement with mobile commerce and their assessments of its perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. These factors lead to positive attitudes toward, and positive intentions to use, mobile commerce.

Keywords: mobile commerce; electronic commerce; m-commerce; e-commerce; technology acceptance model; TAM; consumer involvement; internet marketing; internet retailing; electronic marketing; electronic retailing; etailing; online retailing; online marketing; handheld devices; wireless networks; consumer perceptions; usefulness; ease of use.
