BlackBerry Push Ups the Ante in App War with Enterprise Implications
With the ever-intensifying app war out in the smartphone marketplace, BlackBerry-maker Research In Motion has upped the ante by offering a new push service for BlackBerry software developers to enable rapid delivery of application-content to BlackBerry smartphones. It’s no secret that RIM has a market leading user experience for mobile push email, underpinned by it’s “ground-up for wireless” [...] Mobile Network and Device Performance: Whose Responsibility Is It?
Now that the political dust has finally settled (it even made the news on the BBC) in my fair Commonwealth (for some reason, we’re not a State), I can now get back to fully focusing on scouring the webosphere to see what people are saying about enterprise mobility. I was sent a link yesterday by a [...] Can Carriers Sell Enterprise Mobility Solutions Based On Consumer Devices?
Hello from non frozen San Francisco. Although this weekend was very bad for me in terms of the NFL playoffs, I did at least get to spend some time in one of my favorite cities in the country. While taking the public transportation system back from Fisherman’s Wharf, I started thinking about a conversation I [...] Google Nexus One: The Enterprise Mobility Perspective
Second business day of the year and a second blog entry. See? I am trying to keep my promise of more frequent posts. I’m sure you saw today that Google announced its very own device: the Google Nexus One. The first (of many) Android device(s) that will be developed and directly branded by Google itself. [...] Can IT Support Yet Another Smartphone Platform?
While I was at the Mobile Business Conference at Interop, I did my usual networking. A great way to do that is to attend the panels that have “people of interest” and introduce yourself after they are done speaking. There were many people I wanted to introduce myself to this year, including a representative from Samsung…you [...] Sharing Blame Around Enterprise Mobility Management
Hello from somewhere near Stratford Connecticut. I am on the Acela Express, you know the train known in other parts of the world as the TGV that takes 3h45 to get to NYC from Boston. Did you know that the very same train will go from Paris to Bruxelles (same distance) in 75 minutes? Go [...] Planes, Trains, Automobiles – All For Windows Mobile
All I can say is wow. This was one of the most absurd trips I have taken in a long time. The plane take off a little late (not new). The head winds are bad (not new). The plane RUNS OUT OF GAS. That’s new. Landed in LAS as opposed to LAX (I’m convinced the [...] Thoughts on Microsoft’s Project Pink
Good morning from beautiful Miami. The weather channel tells me at 6:30 am that it’s already 80 degrees Farenheit…certainly warmer (and more humid) than my Boston home. As I wait to see the sun rise (and get my wake up call), I’ve been catching up on some web reading. If you have been surfing the [...] Can FOTA Further Marginalize Carriers?
There’s a new article at Information Week that discusses how Microsoft is planning on providing updates to its mobile OS directly to users, much like Apple, Palm and Google do for their respective OSs. I think this is a great thing, but it made me start to think about how this will impact carriers. Windows Mobile: The KISS Edition
I saw this interesting article/blog post this morning on Information Week’s website about rumors of Microsoft planning a dual OS strategy for Windows Mobile 6.5 and 7 which came on the heels of this article on News.com regarding what Microsoft needs to do to get back into the mobile game. Argh, the much maligned OS [...]
