Mobile Only: Week 6 Mobile devices, with their native capabilities of voice, video, connectivity, and portability are an enterprise productivity power-house. They have the possibility to allow teams to collaborate in ways that used to require separate pieces of equipment.

Enterprise Mobility – Teaming Up
Mobile Only: Week 6 Mobile devices, with their native capabilities of voice, video, connectivity, and portability are an enterprise productivity power-house. They have the possibility to allow teams to collaborate in ways that used to require separate pieces of equipment. However, as with many of the topics I have been covering, the capabilities of the [...] Mobile Office Apps – I Have One Simple Request
Mobile Only: Week 5 Spell check – is it too much to ask?! Seriously. I don’t feel like its a big request but perhaps it is. OK, so I admit it, I am a terrible speller. As far as I am concerned, the best feature in the history of computing is the red squiggly line [...] Email – The Entrance to Enterprise Mobility
Mobile Only: Week3 In the beginning, there was email – at least it was for enterprise mobility. It would be difficult to argue against the idea that email was the incentive to bring mobility in to the enterprise. It was the first thing that the enterprise and users sought to enable on their devices. It [...] Working From ‘Phone’ – Beyond Disbelief
Mobile-Only: Week 2 “You are doing what?” “You are crazy.” “You won’t be able to pull off an entire year of work from your phone.” These are just a few of the ‘doubting Thomas’ responses (along with lots of positive ones) I received this past week since publicly announcing going mobile-only. These weren’t malicious responses, [...] Pitch Fest Slides From the 2011 Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp
Last week, at the Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp at CTIA in San Diego, Philippe Winthrop – Managing Director for the Enterprise Mobility Foundation challenged top enterprise mobility solution providers to present what they view as the most important issue for the mobile enterprise today. Each provider gave a brief presentation and at the conclusion, audience [...] Recapping The 2011 Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp
Hello from beautiful San Diego where CTIA is kicking off its Enterprise and Apps show today. Yesterday, the Enterprise Mobility Foundation held its second annual Enterprise Mobility Boot Camp during the pre-conference day. Let me start off by saying it was an absolutely surreal experience. We had planned on having 130 seats available….and we even [...] Mobilizing Your Business: Challenge or Opportunity?
That was the name of the panel session I moderated yesterday at GigaOM’s Mobilize event in San Francisco. You can actually catch a replay of it here. As is often the case, I was very fortunate to have an unbelievable panel to discuss the main issues around enterprise mobility. The panelists included: Julie Palen from [...] He Who Laughs Last (In Enterprise Mobility) Laughs Best
I’m a big history buff. See, the reason being because I believe that we simply don’t know how to learn from our past…even though the past always seems to repeat itself. One of my favorite examples is how the Cloud is nothing we haven’t seen with mainframes and dumb terminals some 20-30 years ago. Here’s [...] (Enterprise) Mobility: It’s About Playing Chess, Not Checkers
It’s only Wednesday morning and it’s already been a crazy week. Like many of you (I would assume), I spent the better part of Monday digesting the news regarding Google announcing its intention to buy Motorola. Since the news came out, I can’t tell you how many people have called or emailed me to ask [...] Does the OS (Mobile or Otherwise) Still Matter?
I was watching one of the business TV channels recently, and a guest expressed the opinion that RIM’s (BlackBerry) current problems stem largely from the lack of a contemporary and competitive operating system. OK, my views on RIM are on record – they’re going to survive and can even prosper in the future, sustained by [...]
