I’m not joking, it really is. That Blackberry or PDA that you’re using is the future of mobile technology. I figured it out the other day – my Blackberry has 8 times the amount of storage than my first PC and talk about performance…..not even close. Imagine that, I can walk anywhere I want with a powerful computing device that connects me to limitless information and applications. With the advent of social networking sites like Facebook and Linked- In the ability to stay connected becomes more important.

The Unified Communications systems we provide for our clients integrate tightly with handheld devices, so much so that you’ll see the business desk telephone fade away in the next few years. It just makes sense. If you’re already carrying a communication device that is fully integrated with your unified communications system why would you need to have another terminal (phone) on your desk?

Another exciting item is the recent release of Android by Google. This operating system for PDA’s and cell phones promises to allow programmers to write all sorts of neat applications that will enhance your experience. Android is an “open source” product which means anyone can write code to work with it. Many cell phone manufacturers have started building phones that use this operating system. Another example of its industry adoption is the recent announcement of a Verizon / Google partnership that will further expand the Android operating systems use.

This is exactly why we added Verizon Wireless to our portfolio. Add in the VoIP Unified Communication Platform, IT Service and Support and it creates an unbeatable combination for maximizing technology.
