I agree entirely, but nothing prevents a mobile gopher client
displaying (or more likely storing for later display, in my case)
images. I expect such images would be more relevant to the task than
95% of web images. It also helps navigation speed to have a
consistent user interface, such as gopher menus, and not to have to
process dense markup. I think gopher probably will come out ahead on
access speed for most tasks usually done on mobiles, from combining
lots of reasons. As has been said, there's quite a few similar
solutions in WAP interfaces as gopher ones.
