the ubiquitous/location-independent consumer Explanation: I actually think 'ubiquitous' sounds quite good in this context, and there's plenty of Ghits for it as well. Otherwise 'location-independent' was a kind of buzzphrase in the IT company I used to work for. 'Wherever you are in the world, you can do it' is the gist, I guess. HTH. |

pervasive consumer / buyer Explanation: Pervasive is the term used in the high tech industry to describe a device, technology found everywhere or with multiple potential applications. Buyer is a good alternative to consumer. Buyer may be more US centric and less retail oriented than consumer though Hope it helps |

global consumer Explanation: Definitely stay with your idea! This is clearly a new sector, but one which is catching on fast, especially in the electronic/digital markets. This term is being used more and more frequently to describe just this type of consumer: http://www.radioworld.com/article/85476 http://www.fashionandrunway.com/fashion/article.cfm?id_artic... http://huibert-aalbers.com/blog/archives/235 http://www.popcap.com/press/release.php?pid=206 (and hiya carly!!) :) |
