Daily Wireless News & Updates.- Mobility is so ubiquitous today that even consumers know what PDA stands for, and the basic wireless device, the cell phone, is morphing into a multi-tasking gadget in unprecedented fashion. While it's great that users are getting savvier about new tools and services, they're still committing the huge sin of deploying handhelds and device access without the permission, or even simple notification, of the IT department. That's exactly why you need to get a grip on everything in hand that's being used for business today--from camera phones to those cute portable data storage devices and, of course, wireless computing and emerging peer-to-peer technologies.
As one CIO explains, it's not a matter of getting around to it, it's a matter of doing it as soon as possible thanks to all the vulnerabilities created by the new wireless device army. Find out how to secure and manage each of the four technologies mentioned above, the unique aspects within security tied to each one, and why you also need to stay ahead of your users in learning what's coming next in wireless mobility functions and tools.

WIRELESS NEWS: Symbian halves licensing fees
By Daily Wireless Updates, Power by Cogni360
Daily Wireless News & Updates.- In an effort to accelerate the adoption of the Symbian OS platform, Symbian cut its licensing fees. Under new pricing alternatives, Symbian OS royalties as low as $2.50 per unit are possible, down from the $7.25 per unit sold for the first 2 million and $5 per unit thereafter. The moves come as Linux- and Windows-based handsets are encroaching on Symbian's market share. New research from The Diffusion Group says the battle between mobile OS vendors is set to intensify with Symbian, today's market leader, gradually losing share to both Microsoft's Mobile Windows and Linux. Symbian had a market share of 51 percent last year. The firm expects Symbian's share to erode to 22 percent, behind both Windows and Linux, who will garner 29 percent and 26 percent respectively.

WIRELESS NEWS: WiFi iPod on the way?
By Daily Wireless Updates, Power by Cogni360
Daily Wireless News & Updates.- Investors are rubbing their hands over the prospect that Apple may be introducing an iPod capable of downloading music and video via WiFi. The speculation comes after chip vendor PortalPlayer and Bluetooth technology company CSR said they added WiFi and Bluetooth capability to chips used in personal media players. We don't know which media player, but it may be safe to assume that it's iPod since about 95 percent of PortalPlayer's business comes from iPod related sales. iPod to date has only made a wireless debut on a couple of Motorola phones.

WIRELESS NEWS: Nokia has introduced a slim flip phone
By Daily Wireless Updates, Power by Cogni360
Daily Wireless News & Updates.- When it comes to handsets, thin is in this year, thanks to Motorola's RAZR phone. Nokia has introduced a slim flip phone that some say could effectively compete with Motorola's popular RAZR phone. The 6131 camera phone has 8x digital zoom, a digital music player, an FM stereo radio, audio messaging and push-to-talk capability. It's a quadband phone, which means it can operate on four of the major standards in use around the world. Meanwhile, both Sony Ericsson and NEC introduced thin phones. NEC claims its model is the world's thinnest clamshell handset, measuring in at a meager 90.8 x 47.9 x 11.9 mm and 94 g. Sony Ericsson says its K610 would be the smallest and lightest 3G handset on the market. For more telecom news go to: Telecommunicate and Daily WiFi News.

WIRELESS NEWS: International operators push global IM service
By Daily Wireless Updates, Power by Cogni360
Daily Wireless News & Updates.- Several of the globe's largest operators are pushing initiatives to make instant messaging as pervasive as SMS. Vodafone, China Mobile, Telefonica Moviles, Orange and T-Mobile International are part of 15 operators trying to create a parallel value stream to their lucrative SMS businesses. Unlike text messaging, mobile IM offers a familiar messaging platform because it's commonly used on PCs. In addition, mobile IM allows users to manage a list of contacts, check their availability online and send one message to groups of users. Operators believe customers will be willing to pay for these features in a mobile environment, even though IM is free on PC connections.
