Thanks Michael, for second me here with this great comparision :)
2 more statements to think of:
* Everybody will tolerate ads in television, but nobody will
tolerate an ad 'sticker' on your remocon LCD which you have to
see first if you want to change the channel of your TV.
* A browser (or your computer) is never such a personal device
like your phone and ads on your most personal device
are much more a 'break in' into your private life.

And also big Internet Companys like Tripod.com found much
more interesting spaces to places their ads than a tiny I-Mode
screen like documented last week in Japan:
