The folks at MTV managed to interview Blizzard co founder Frank Pearce after the DICE summit and got some pretty interesting information. It’s been revealed that Blizzard is definitely thinking about making a mobile WoW interface. He says it would probably just allow you to chat and monitor auctions and mail, without actually being able to buy and sell things.Though very limited a lot of players only log on just before work or school simply to check on auctions, in game mail, or send a message to a raid leader regarding an upcoming SSC run. All of these things can be done from the comfort of your phone while you make your way to class or work.

Other notable comments in the interview:

-Players in Taiwan have the shortest wait time for tickets
-Blizzard is working on a way to stream a trial version of WoW so people who want to try the game can be playing in 10 minutes. Is that even possible?
-Wrath “should feel at least as substantial as BC”
-The movie was delayed by the just-ended WGA strike, but the project is now running again and looking for directors. Pearce: “When we talk about the quality of our movie and the quality of the movie we want to see delivered, we’re talking about the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy. That’s what we want to deliver, that kind of epic experience.” (src)
