There are two main factors driving increased usage of handheld devices in the enterprise. The first is the ever-decreasing cost of hardware. In the week that I write this, Dell is launching its first Pocket PC at a price that is intended to undercut rivals, Hewlett Packard has announced new low-end and high-end iPaqs, and Microsoft and Samsung announced the availability of a new Pocket PC concept design that “dramatically lowers costs and reduces product development time for mobile device OEMs and original device manufacturers.” All this competition among suppliers drives prices lower and makes it more likely than ever that enterprises will consider it a worthwhile investment to issue smart devices to large numbers of their employees.
