I would rather make it a separate study. Integrating this with CPE might become 
messy and it would make the survey really long and complicated. Of course 
anything is possible. We encourage people to contribute on RIPE Labs with ideas 
and experiments. 

I think the first thing to do is to start a thread either here or on 
labs.ripe.net about what people would like to see from a survey on mobile 
devices. The CPE survey started of as a result of some work I did for my 
employer at the time. After a round of vendor selecting I was sitting on a pile 
of data and decided to publish it. Now I know my way around mobile a bit, but I 
am not an expert. So guidance on what is relevant and what not or help from 
somebody who knows more about mobile is more than welcome should we decide to 
push this forward.

From what I know and seen so far this is indeed the sad situation we are in. At 
this stage I don't think publishing a survey towards end users would make the 
difference. But I am more than happy to find myself wrong on this one :)
