Another reason why I think mobile porn is not going to be anything like the adult Internet boom:
Why do people watch porn?
Well?
Because it helps them get off!
Where do people like to masturbate?
On the train?
At work?
At the grocery store?
I believe they prefer to do it in the privacy of their own home.
What screens do you have available at home to watch porn on?
Most people have at least one large TV screen (50"?) a computer screen (17"?) and a mobile phone screen (2"?).
What screen would you choose to watch your porn on?
If you want to make money from mobile, sell people something they can use on the train on the way to work, not something that is only useful in a place where better tools are available ;-)
If anyone has a valid argument why my theory is wrong I'd love to hear it!

In short:
-Magazines brought sex out of the bedroom
-VCRs brought them to your living room
-the internet brought them to the office and to work
-mobile devices will bring them everywhere
In each of these cases people would have said "Who would ever......???"
But they do
However I think your concern is quite common and a very reasonable one.
