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” [...] Crack and Enterprise Mobility Just Don’t Mix – Part V

Microsoft Corporation is hosting this week its MIX conference in Las Vegas, the annual event geared towards web designers and developers.

I am sick and tired [...] Is Windows Mobile 7 Delayed Another Year?
There was some pretty interesting news coming across the web today. As originally reported by Windows Mobile Poweruser and MSMobiles.com, Microsoft UK head of mobility Phil Moore is quoted as saying that we won’t see Windows Mobile 7 until Q4 2010. Ugh. This is clearly not a good thing for the Windows Mobile ecosystem, but [...] Is Windows Mobile 6.5 The Vista of Mobility?
As you might know, Windows Mobile 6.5, the latest incarnation of Microsoft maligned mobile operating system was officially released, along with a bevvy of new Windows Phones at CTIA a couple of weeks ago in San Diego. You know, the place I was going to when my plane ran out of gas…not that I am bitter [...] Inside Looking Out: An Executive View on Enterprise Mobility with Sandeep Bhanote
