Transcript of Update on Handheld Devices Blackberry, Treo, etc Bill Mountz [email protected].
Beginnings
• Started in early 2003 with BlackBerry devices.
• Have tested about five other types of devices.
Variety of devices
• BlackBerry, Treo, Tungsten, Samsung, Siemens, Nokia
• Key differences between devices is what each device started as a particular kind of device and added on other features.
• Key difference where e-mail is concerned: Push vs. Pull
• Still searching for the perfect 3-in-1 device.• There is no "official" device• Haven't tested all devices
Trials and Beyond
• Mobile E-mail with a web client
• Standard e-mail client on a handheld
• Consilient trial
• Testing AIS apps on mobile devices
