This paper is about exploring mobile eGovernment issues by analysing their historical evolution and illustrating some concrete activities, first in the initial phase, then through more recent projects, with the idea of capturing some attributes of its development trend. The objective is to propose a view on mGovernment, which can be both compatible with fieldwork findings and overall information and communication technology dynamics. The authors thus suggest a remapping of the mGovernment domain, so as to establish key priorities, eventually helping improve policy-planning capabilities in this area. The main hypothesis is that mGovernment should not be too specific an area of eGovernment (limited to the notion of mobile access), but on the contrary take upon the current dominant movement in favour of mobile technology usages, and steer experiments and initiatives in a way that ultimately benefits, and even empowers the users and citizens in their various flexibility needs.
