ZD Net has reported this week that Google are dipping their toes into the MDM (Mobile Device Management) market with a new Goggle MDM for Google Apps. On paper this is certainly an interesting development from the California Giants. It follows recent news that RIM are set to also enter the MDM market. . . . → Read More: Google MDM – Not a World Beater

It turns out there might be a viable alternative: WebOS. HP is already in talks to license WebOS and has already had discussions with a number of companies. Panasonic are entering the ruggedized tablet market later this year with a Toughbook Android Tablet which they are calling an ‘Enterprise-grade Android’ device. It will offer hardware level encryption, a 10.1 inch XGA screen, GPS, 3G/4g connectivity and comes with a stylus. HP are soon to release their TouchPad. A 9.7 inch tablet device with a dual core 1.2Ghz Snapdragon processor, 16/32GB storage and a 768 x 1024 pixel screen. Get to know its knew features by taking a look at the HP TouchPad video. A great contender to the Appl’s iPad2, RIM’s Playbook and Motorola’s Xoom. IBM seems to consider the iPad and other tablets as real corporate mobile computing devices. IBM will lease the Apple iPad and tablets from other manufacturers for about 20$ dollars a month. The typical lease period will last two to three years. If you don’t fancy an iPad they are also offering RIM’s Playbook and Android based tablets. We are now starting to see a few ‘rugged’ Android devices appear in the market such as the Motorola Defy and the Casio Commander. As time goes on I think we will start seeing more and more rugged smartphones and tablets being released that use Android OS rather than the venerable Windows Mobile platform. We should soon be seeing devices with much better technical specifications too as dual core mobile processors become the norm with at least 1GB RAM. Looking at Motorola’s Tablet Plans should give you an idea of things to come… |
