In planning [...] Slides From The 2011 Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp

OK, my views on RIM are on record – they’re going to survive and can even prosper in the future, sustained by [...] Why Enterprise Mobility Planning Matters
It’s a wonderful day today here in Boston. Wonderfully sunny sky, high 80s and dry….and oh ya, there was a certain Cup from Lord Stanley of Preston that was awarded for the first time in 39 years to the mighty Boston Bruins. Congratulations to the Bruins for the great win and also a hearty congratulations [...] Enterprise Mobility Management & Mobile Lifecycle Management In The Context Of The OSI Model
As organizations continue to deploy an increasing number of mobile applications to a broader and more diverse employee base, IT departments are increasingly recognizing the need for enterprise mobility management solutions.
