Mobile business

From hot spots to hot desks, the mobile business revolution is upon us.

Written by Ian Lynch

GPRS phones, smart phones, 3G video phones, Palm Pilots, iPaqs, Pocket PCs, ultraportables, laptop PCs, tablet PCs - whatever your degree of mobility, you can be pretty sure there's a device that can keep you in touch with the office wherever you go.

The corporate network no longer resides just onsite, and network managers have to think about protecting corporate data wherever and whenever their employees roam out of HQ's revolving door.

Not to mention making sure that staff can email/SMS/talk back, and access calendar functions and files from company systems.

This vnunet.com Special Report examines the new mobile business world.
