Step away from the hype: 5 ways where iPhone 3G still lags enterprise-wise.

Geek sacrilege? Not if these are your IT priorities.

Despite Apple Inc.'s improvements upon the previous iPhone, primarily
through its licensing of Microsoft Corp.'s ActiveSync technology, the 3G
and its iPhone 2.0 software remain less competent and less tested than
its BlackBerry and Windows Mobile counterparts.

"From an IT support standpoint, you want a hardened device, something
you can fire and forget," says Todd Christy, president and chief
technology officer at Pyxis Mobile Inc., a smart phone application
maker. "I think the iPhone is cool, but it isn't there from an
enterprise standpoint."

One man's opinion, I guess he likes seeing his name in print.

True enough, of course if an opinion is given by one man named Jobs, you wet
your pants over it !!!

AT&T just reported with their Quarterly Report that
the new iPhone 3G is selling twice as fast as the original iPhone did.
And that 40% are new to AT&T customers. So I expect next quarter their
adds to their subscriber base will outpace Verizon.

So Todd Christy can whine about the iPhone if he wants, but his
employees may soon be changing his mind for him.

Can I get a clarification of your language here? "40% are new to AT&T
customers" means something a whole lot different than "40% are to new AT&T
customers", which is what I think you meant. Placing the word "new" before
or after the word "to" changes the entire meaning of your statistic.
