Mobile
Definition:
(a.) Capable of being moved; not fixed in place or condition; movable.

(a.) Easily moved in feeling, purpose, or direction; excitable; changeable; fickle.
(a.) Changing in appearance and expression under the influence of the mind; as, mobile features.
(a.) Capable of being moved, aroused, or excited; capable of spontaneous movement.
(a.) The mob; the populace.

Definition:
