“…Thus, it is expected that perceived fee will serve as a critical predictor in forming MDS behaviors. There is no research that examines the change in the relative strength of the link between perceived fee and intention to use in terms of prior experience [10]. In this line, we hypothesized that Hypothesis H6.…”

“…In the case of Mobile Data Services (MDS), it is also expected that perceived usefulness would affect intention to use both directly and indirectly via perceived ease of use and perceived enjoyment. So, for example, recent research as Kim et al [10] analyzed the relationship between useful and ease of use in MDS, and the results showed that this magnitudes were positively related. Therefore, we posit: Hypothesis H2.…”

“…Perceived fee is the extent to which a customer believes that using a product or service is expensive, and it is the internalization of the objective monetary cost. Kim et al [10] empirically showed that perceived fee is negatively related to adoption intention toward MDS. Lately, Kim et al [10] proposed that perceived fee would affect intention to use in two ways: (1) by indirectly influencing intention to use through perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment, and (2) by directly influencing intention to use.…”

Lately, Kim et al [10] proposed that perceived fee would affect intention to use in two ways: (1) by indirectly influencing intention to use through perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment, and (2) by directly influencing intention to use. The direct effect suggests that perceived fee could be a potential barrier to decrease the likelihood of the user's intention to adopt and use MDS.…”

“…In this paper, TAM is extended considering several other constructs and measuring previous experience with wireless LAN, although it is not incorporated as a moderating variable. Kim et al [10] have investigated the factors that influence the use of ubiquitous computing and U-business value, considering system, information and service qualities as the major factors affecting the use of ubiquitous computing. In general, most of the studies related to technology acceptance of ubiquitous computing applications are focused on incorporating additional variables and considering specific applications.…”

Ubiquitous computing services constitute a new information technology that can be used in thousands of potential applications and environments. Ubiquitous computing is also changing the classic paradigm of information technology as it is forcing social and cultural changes. Determining factors affecting the use of ubiquitous services is essential to correctly define the characteristics of new value added services. However, this study investigates not only these factors, but also the moderating effect of previous experience. Due to the technological nature of ubiquitous services, previous experience alters the way in which potential users face these services. Findings suggest that previous experience changes the way in which antecedent relates to basic TAM constructs. The derived research models and empirical results also provide valuable indicators for future research and managerial guidelines for the successful adoption of ubiquitous computing services.

The growing availability of the Internet and advances in the use of technology among Muslims have led to an increase in the number of websites with an Islamic content. Currently, there is an emerging trend in the improvement of the design and quality of Islamic websites. Islamic websites serve as a medium for Islamic organizations, scholars, and individuals to contribute and participate in several online activities. This research is drawn from the deep understanding that website design is a major factor affecting the use of websites by Muslim users. We therefore investigate the most important design features that influence Muslims to use websites in learning about Islam, as an alternative to the traditional face-to-face learning from scholars and books. Website design is measured by functionality, navigation, interactivity, attractiveness, and organizational features, and website use by the extent to which frequent use is influenced by the website's design features. An online survey was conducted from November to December 2012. 89 usable responses were collected from faculty members and students at the International Islamic University Malaysia. The participants have experience in using Islamic websites. They were guided to the survey website via the faculty students' mailing list and Facebook group page. The findings indicate that website attractiveness, functionality, navigation, organizational information, and security/privacy are the most important factors influencing the use of Islamic websites. Interactivity design features were found to be least significant in influencing Muslim users to use Islamic websites for religious purposes. The majority of the Muslim users visit Islamic websites to search for information, seek for scholars' opinions regarding personal issues/problems (Q&A), and learn about Quran and Hadith. The results of the study are valuable indicators for the direction of future research, and also suggest guidelines for the successful development and adoption of Islamic websites.
