Every enterprise is grappling with how to best benefit from the implementation of a handheld computing strategy. It’s up to your management to set a corporate policy on how and which handheld devices will be implemented and this is perhaps the most crucial decision you can make as you may have to live with today’s decision for years to come. This “Battle” is exactly that, a battle to determine which handheld computing solution is best for your organization.

Battle For The Enterprise Questions
1.
What do you see as changing regarding IT's taking control over the acquisition and management of handhelds in the enterprise?

2. What is enterprise IT doing with handhelds over and above PIM? What are the major application areas?

3. Wireless LANs (802.11x) are increasingly being used with handhelds. Do you agree that most if not all handhelds will need to have built-in wireless connectivity in the near future?

4. What makes the latest version of PocketPC so much better than previous attempts by Microsoft in the handheld arena?

5. What is Palm's counter to the latest version of PocketPC?

6. When will Palm have the conversion to ARM completed? When that is available, how will the capabilities stack up against PocketPC? Isn't this completed?

7. It appears to us that all future handhelds should have as default an SD slot for storage and CF slot for communications. Do you agree/disagree? Have these become the defacto handheld expansion standards, or will we see other media types come to the fore?

8. When do you think wide area wireless packet networks will become pervasive so that enterprise IT can rely on nationwide coverage?

9. Enterprises have expressed a lot of concern regarding security since wireless-based handhelds will be used a lot out of the office to access corporate data. What are your recommendations re: maintaining security in handhelds?

10. What are the most important recommendations you can make to enterprise IT managers thinking of deploying wireless-based handhelds?

11. What do you think of the new generation of voice digital assistants (VDAs)? Is VDA here referring to pda/phone combos, like the Treo?
