THEN CHECK OUT OUR ROUNDUP OF SMARTPHONES AND for WWAN PC CARDS TO HELP ENSURE A GOOD FIT BY PETER RYSAVY AND DAVE MOLTA We had to cram a lot into this article—the devices and platforms we’re evaluating could fill an entire issue. IT pros wading through piles of “marketecture” from carriers looking to pro- vide wireless data access—for a price—can likely relate. In “Dial M for Maybe” (page 31), we discuss whether mobile users can really enjoy ubiquitous access to enterprise applications and data. Our take: More so than last year, but still less than we’d like. To find out what today’s wireless data net- works can—and cannot—do, we evaluated perform- ance of a trio of PC Card modems from Cingular Wireless, Sprint/Nextel and Verizon Wireless on EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution), CDMA2000 1XRTT and EV-DO (Evolution-Data Only) networks. We also evaluated the latest crop of smart- phones—from Nokia (Nokia 9300 designed for GPRS/EDGE networks), Sprint (Treo 650 running “ 1XRTT), T-Mobile (RIM BlackBerry 7290 running ” www.nwc.com I 10.27.2005 I NETWORK COMPUTING 41 dial GPRS) and Verizon (Samsung i730 running EV-DO, they are becoming indispensable tools. And in some 1XRTT and Wi-Fi)—to determine their strengths and cases, they can be used as wireless modems for lap- weaknesses in wireless data accessibility.

  • 1 Smartphones and Symbian OS
    1 Smartphones and Symbian OS Symbian OS is a full-featured, open, mobile operating system that powers many of today’s smartphones. As these smartphones become more pow- erful and popular, the demand for smartphone software has grown. Symbian smartphones are shipped with a variety of useful pre-loaded and targeted applications, which are selected by each phone’s manu- facturer. Today, the average Symbian smartphone ships with over 30 pieces of third-party software pre-installed. However, the exciting aspect of Symbian smartphones is that they are ‘open’, meaning that users can further customize their phone experience by downloading, installing, and uninstalling applications written by third-party developers (or by the users themselves). Users can download applications from a PC to the smartphone through a link such as USB, or Bluetooth technology, or over-the-air via the Internet. With the largest installed base of smartphones worldwide, Symbian OS offers a great opportunity for software developers to establish them- selves in the mobile market by creating novel and exciting software for the growing mass of smartphone users around the world. There is a growing list of Symbian applications available as freeware or as paid downloads on numerous Internet sites (http://www.handango.com and http://www.epocware.com are good examples). They range from pro- ductivity, entertainment, navigation, multimedia, and communications software to programs that can count fast food calories, improve your golfCOPYRIGHTED swing, keep diaries, and calculate MATERIAL foreign currency exchange. And business opportunities aside, sometimes it’s just plain fun writing your own code to run on your own smartphone.

  • For Smartphones?
    15.912 TECHNOLOGY STRATEGY SPRING SEMESTER 2005 FINAL PAPER SHOULD MOTOROLA EMBRACE 100% THE LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM (OS) FOR SMARTPHONES? Silvia Battigelli Alberto Farronato Carlos Mazariegos 15.912 - Technology Strategy Final Paper 1. Introduction In a period when the market for mobile devices is changing and moving towards convergence of multiple products into one single device, it is time for the big players in all related industries to reconsider their strategy to capture more of the value that convergence will create. Motorola, the second largest manufacturer of mobile handsets, recently adopted a new open source OS in a completely new market, such as the one of smartphones in China, and the question is: should they strongly adopt the new standard in all of the new products and in all of the markets? We believe that the answer is yes, and in this paper we will explain why. 2. An Overview of Motorola Motorola was originally founded as the Galvin Manufacturing Corporation in 1928 by Paul V. Galvin and his brother Joseph E. Galvin in Chicago, Illinois. Galvin Manufacturing Corporation's first product was a battery eliminator, a device that allows battery-powered radios to run on standard household electric current. In the 1930’s the company introduced one of the first commercially successful car radios and a single-frequency mobile radio receiver for police broadcasts. The company had just entered into the new field of mobile radio communications with net annual sales of $287,256. In the 1940’s, after Galvin Manufacturing Corporation becomes Motorola and offers first public stock, and into the 1950’s Motorola kept growing with new technological and commercial innovations in radio devices, television and personal pagers.

  • Security Use a Smartphone As Your Lockbox Key! Centro Now Certified!
    GE Security Use a smartphone as your lockbox key! Centro now certified! Many agents now use a smartphone or PDA to beam open Supra iBoxes. You can, too, when you subscribe to eKEY service from GE Security! Check with your Board, Association, or MLS for availability of eKEY service in your area. What are smartphones? What are PDA’s? PDA is short for Personal Digital Assistant, commonly called “PalmPilot.” A PDA consolidates your calendar, contacts and other paper systems into one small device you’ll always have with you in your pocket or purse. A smartphone is a PDA that is also a cell phone. Most smartphones include high-speed Internet access, email and other real estate-friendly features, including camera, calculators voice memo capability and more. What is eKEY service? There are two levels of eKEY service. eKEY Basic allows you to open and program your own iBoxes. eKEY Professional adds MLS listing information, maps, agent roster and showing details to your device. With eKEY Professional, you can do business any time, anywhere. See feature comparison chart below. How does an eKEY update? If you are using a smartphone with wireless Internet access, your eKEY will update by itself overnight. If you do not have wireless Internet access, you may update your smartphone through your PC. If you have eKEY service on your PDA, you may update with your PC over your high-speed Internet connection using the factory-supplied PDA cable or cradle. Current smartphone devices Here are the current smartphone devices certified for eKEY service and the wireless carriers supporting them.
